The quality of your product counts a lot as well when pricing, as far wholsale is taken from cost price which is cost of marerial, labour, tax's, gst. machinery, power, facilities and you have to work out that cost thenput your mark on, if you have to pay for a site to sell your goods that would have to be worked out on a % I work on 10% so if it costs $80 for my site I will have to take $800 anything over that is extra profit, after you have done a few shows you can tell aprox. how much you will take

we don't have a choice in NZ there is the rubish Ryobi and another, they can be bought from the hardware shops, the only others are the Carbatec that needs modifing and the Excalibur 21" & 30" so we cannot compare, it would be nice if we could, I also wrote to DeWalt and they just said they don't send to NZ or OZ. end of story

Hi every one in your opinion what do you think the best saw on the market is, I know everyone will probably say the one that they own, or , or,or,
Most of you know I had a ryobi [second hand] cheap as, i got the bug moved up o the best available down under and that is where I am now
I have a Excalibur and it is great and that is all I can say as i don't know if there is a better saw
Think and lets know and why

An inch a year is rite for drying wood, the prosess can be speeded up if you choose by sealing the ends with a wet wood sealer then stacking, in smaller pieces soak the wood in water and detergent, this drives the resin out of the wood, BUT it s not fool proof it is up to you to try it out for your self

Hi Janet your appeal for help for MIL was justified and I'm pleased that you reiceved good advice, we are all getting older and in some cases like my self, we will probably need assistance at some stage of the journy of life, and it is nice to know you are doing the right thing by your MIL.
I try to joke a bit about my wife and I by trying to lift our spirits on old age but one can not deny the fact that it will happen to all of us at some stage.
But it is great to be alive and doing what we like best
