Dave - The Medway Handyman I wouldn't be without mine. Bought it off one of those Sales TV Channel places. Great piece of kit to get the joints rights on trunking Etc. And you don't have to think to do it. Set the little template, lock it in position around the angle. Set the box to the template, insert material to be cut and start sawing along the saw guide. It is that easy. I would recommend getting one if you have a need for it. Although I got mine for one job with a load of box cutting, it has done cornice, skirt, trunk (loads of it) and lots, lots, lots more stuff. Get one. |

Demonstrated on QVC every time I channel hopped. It seemed to do the job however the people demonstrating these things always make it look easy and never have real world cases where the plaster curves outwards by half an inch at the ceiling! -- Alan news2006 {at} amac {dot} f2s {dot} com |

Alas yes :-) Dave - The Medway Handyman My hair stopped at 5 foot 7 inches and I continued on up to 5 foot 9 and a half, so we all grow through it eventually. :-) I used to be called myself Mr Magic. But that was for electrical installations. Although, I can make a plate of biscuits disappear before your eyes. Don't you still get asked if you'd do a corporate gig or two a year? I love magic tricks. |

Yes, I do the odd corporate gig for previous clients, a few wedding receptions & private parties by reccomendation, but nothing like as much as I used to do. I love magic tricks. Glad to hear it - although we prefer to call them 'effects' :-) -- Dave - The Medway Handyman www.medwayhandyman.co.uk |

I still believe you can pull matter out of the air and turn it into a bunny rabbit. :-) Nice to hear you still have an audience. We are loosing the power of illusion today. Kids, and grown ups, are more concerned with how to get their next fix of violence and fear, instead of relaxing and enjoying the power of magic. Like the parrot said to the magician when the titanic sank "OK, the rest of your tricks were rubbish, but that one where you make the ship disappear. Fantastic" :-) |

Alas yes :-) I am just going to go grey not bald Adam Men who go bald at the front of their head, are good thinkers. Men who go bald at the back of their head, are good lovers. Men who go bald from front to back of their head, think they are good lovers. :-) Going silver haired is natures way of keeping us safe at night. You can't miss a reflective head of grey hair at night, when you shine a torch on it. :-) |
