  makes sense, I blame my failing eyesight...

  I have the small Jet planer/thicknesser machine and its great (wish I'd bought the 310 though) it was approx. £600 when I bought it, its now nearly £2k! Axminster trade one looks better value and very similar.

  I love machining timber up, I never get over how it changes from rough sawn to planed and the fantastic grain appears - particularly American black walnut

  I'll look out for the finished table

  looks quite a wide and thin board now - have you considered the risks of the board cupping? I learnt the hard way...
  workshop looks great!

  These look great. Would you be interested in making a tool roll to hold my Japanese chisels?

  something like this fitted after boarding or a similar plastic one forming a shadow gap would have worked. Don't think Skimming up to the plywood would have worked, you would have staining on the boards and a crack would form with no neat way to finish it.

  Both my garages are without heating which is just about bearable for a couple of hours but after that it gets uncomfortable, but the spec on your build is much higher. You can get some pretty thin electric under floor heating systems which are easy to lay but certainty more expensive than an oil filled radiator.

  thus looks amazing, unless you've done this type of work its very difficult to understand the extra work which is involved in setting everything out with consistent gaps to the boards and screws -great work! Glad the idea of staggering the boards worked out
  I never considered the detail between the plaster skim and the boards would be so pronounced. In hindsight a shadow stop bead or skim bead prior to boarding would have helped?

  Is it too late or do you not have space to install electric underfloor heating? would save on losing wall space and give more uniform heat.

  Maybe a rubber stud tile? Nora do some but they may make it difficult to roll your machines round? or maybe marmoleum? Forbo are a good product

  would this work? or would the bag obscure it?
