Ozito 350W 5 Speed Bench Drill Press

Off this morning to get this for Mothers Day.

This to replace one of the two bench drills lost in the 2016 shed fire.

Still waiting for the ALDI WorkZone drill press to come around on sale.

Chester is gone. 2006 - 2017 RIP my boy.

Mitre saw purchase

Thanks to Ozito (again) for locating a 305mm Sliding Compound Mitre Saw and putting my name on the last one at Bunnings Notting Hill.

One of the last and this particular model not available anymore – wonder why ?

Workshop – Main workbench

Not able to get out to the workshop till the evening to finish off the main workbench with some leg bracing and a plywood shelf.

Workshop – Pocket hole drill bit

Nifty mail box delivery this morning, a funny looking drill bit.

It's a pocket hole drill bit with collet for depth adjustment used to join two pieces of timber by drilling into one at a angle to the right depth (collet) and then driving a screw through into the other timber.

Ideally you would use it in conjunction with a pocket hole jig to ensure the correct angle but they are expensive so I’ll have a go at making one.

Washing machine Base cabinet

Another job done setting up a front loader on a custom base cabinet for a family friend.
