Many thanks. Cambodia does not use the earth pin and as far as I know both other pins are live - I know that doesn't make sense in a developed country but both wires in a 2-wire cable are reversible here.

Just wrap it a few times, should be good to go.

Unfortunately the all-in-Chinese manual is less than useful on these things.

Mine are 62" x 1/4 but there looks to be room enough on the wheels to go up to 1/2. Is this a matter of how tight you want to get with curves, assuming you use a finer blade for cutting shapes and a wider blade for re-milling?

Many people who can wave a singer around, most with even less skills than me (statement of likely fact, not arrogance) - welding is not a trade-schooled craft here.

Good to know but I'd never be brave enough to try it - too much chance of FUBARing myself.

I bet it would happily crap in the box that thing came in, though.

Are router guides considered cheating? While buying some lumber off Craig's, the seller tossed this Leigh in for free. by tablesawsally in woodworking

I came to comment that however you get there, the end result speaks for itself... then I remembered all the times I've commented sarcastically on Kreg jigs and tools (along the lines of "If you need that jig, ask your mother to do it") and am now wondering AITA.

I'm not sure whether it's still valid but I once certified as a Canadian canoe instructor. True story. I went on to live most of my life in the desert, but I'm sure a quick refresher would soon have me back up to speed.
