  1. Alternatively- just find you local school art department with a kiln and ask if they would put your brick in with their next firing in exchange for a donation to school funds, for a slightly bigger donation they will probably do it on its own.

  4. Dual box or would that have meant spending money? Lots of 3.1A BG & LAP ones at Screweys: http://www.screwfix.com/p/british-general-13a-2g-sp-switched-socket-3-1a-2g-usb-charger-white/8529p

  5. Just checked the bank. Soldering iron is coming out later and I'm hooking up the original ones for January. F@@@ it, only so much I can do. In 4 weeks this went from rockwool and junk to this Not bad considering I kept regular job going as well. Has a good mate help in evenings and weekends. Bribed sufficiently ???? Back to sanding ??????

  6. cheap solution, use an old modem/router and simply turn off DHCP addressing I have a draytek main router, 1st port goes to an old talktalk router at the tv position, 2nd port goes to loft to another talktalk router which supplies wifi upstairs and goes to shed to another talktalk router providing wifi in shed and ethernet for my satellite box, loft router also goes to sons bedroom to yet another router for his PS and PC , 2nd port from loft provides ethernet in our main bedroom, 3rd port in loft router goes to back bedroom, 4th port goes to cctv DVR. 3rd port on draytek goes to another talktalk router to provide a guest network that is islanded from the rest of the home network talktalk are good at sending out routers, if you ring them up with any sort of problem its the first thing they do btw, my network is simply all cat5e, speed loss is un-noticeable tbh, I'd say anything more than cat6 for a home network is overkill,

  7. Stick to your guns on this one, would be my answer. A year after moving in I can still see every compromise and imperfection in our house. I wish I'd stood up and demanded better in some cases.

  8. I know most laminates and veneers can be made at least 10' / 3m so don't assume any size is unavailable I used to get sheets made for shop fitting which were 10' laminate sheets made from an 8'x4' sheet plus a 2' rip ( which were biscuit jointed together before the whole thing being glued and pressed ). Always ask what's available ?

  9. But then it would have cost twice as much and you would have had to use iscrews to fix it to the wall. no other tyoe of screw would have been compatible.
