Handiness (chop saw + operation) for a DIY project?


Recommended Posts

Hello, I had posted this in the 'Items Wanted' section but someone suggested I post here for a wider audience.


I have a (somewhat lofty for me) goal to DIY some pine furniture and want to alter the legs (shortening overall and ideally cutting to an angle but that's more of a 'nice to have'). Any chance anyone is willing to offer some handiness and use of a chop saw? I wouldn't trust myself to use one but am happy to discuss compensation...the single quote I received was the same as the price of the furniture so doesn't really seem worth it!


Also: I've inquired at B&Q and Travis Perkins and neither can offer help, nor did they really have any suggestions of where to go.


thanks in advance for any other suggestions!

    • I believe that Crown Post Offices are normally owned by the Post Office, and are frequently in valuable high street sites, so I would not be surprised if their sale value (or rentals to be derived if not sold) would be enticing, particularly for those offices running at slim or no profit margins. Happy to be proven wrong, of course. 
    • The name has got a 50s feel about it so in my mind it’s for older people who have very specific concerns. Nothing wrong with that.

    • It is a challenge.  These sorts of services are increasingly expensive to deliver as fewer and fewer people use them.  Most people don't want to have to go back to using their lunch hour to queue up at the bank or Post Office.  So the options  are - reduce the service, make it more expensive or the tax payer subsidises it.
