NSS

And in a 'roundabout' way, therein lies the problem

Time to reflect on a good job done ?

I bet whoever did it was shattered when they'd finished.

The ONLY thing that would persuade me to do another build would be if we could get a plot with a view. Surrounded by other houses here, though not overlooked so reasonably private at least.

Stunning view @lizzie

ITV Telethon '88 (round Britain drive) Sky Sports News and Meridian TV (Charity cycle ride from Middlesbrough to Southampton in 2005) Channel 4 documentary about the scandal of CJD infected HGH being injected into GHD kids in the 1970's (circa 1993).

I bet you'd love a Bentley Bentayga Dave ?

As I said on the other thread, each to their own but I think I preferred the Tricorn car park. I know it wasn't finished, but the trouble is it will (to me at least) never look finished. Oh, and having grown up in Portsmouth I actually hated the Tricorn. Guess that's me off the fence on this one

Each to their own I guess, but I think I preferred the Tricorn car park ?

Yep, 18-24" would be ideal. I've also found these https://nbcgroup.co.uk/products/trailer-rings/trailer-rings-series-u but suspect they may be more difficult to turn. The other option with, as you suggest, outrigger casters is definitely another option ?

We have one of those too

I did consider this, much like a microwave turntable, but thought it might end up being a bit cumbersome. It needs to be something that will move relatively freely or Mrs NSS simply won't be able to turn it from a seated position.

Had never heard of a slewing bearing but they look to be a potentially ideal solution ?

Found this https://www.sdslondon.co.uk/furniture-turntables/turntable-360-degree-450-kg.html?campaign=196461189&content=193655401383&keyword=&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI8syJio2d3gIViLHtCh3HKgbaEAQYAyABEgIq__D_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds but not sure how durable it would be for outside use.

Cheers Jeremy, but as mentioned I estimate loading to be 150-200kgs.

We have a Growmate pyramid greenhouse like the one below. The glazed section lifts and rotates above the base and one section of glass lifts out to allow access to tend the stuff growing inside. Unfortunately, Mrs NSS is no longer able to get down on her knees (or get up again if she does) so I want to raise the whole thing up to a suitable height. That would of course be relatively easy, but I would actually like to make it so the whole thing, base and all, can easily rotate too, thus allowing her to sit in one position and turn it as needed to access each segment. Effectively, it needs to sit on a large 'Lazy Susan', but one which will cope with a total weight of perhaps 150 to 200kgs. Any ideas as to what I could use without having to spend a small fortune?

We were I believe the first UK residential installation. Retail cost of rectangular units was circa £800 per m2 and shaped units (we have 3) were double that but we negotiated a substantial discount. Not sure what impact exchange rates will have had since then but, if your budget can accommodate it, SageGlass is such an elegant solution.

Google SageGlass. It works for us.

How much money did the first architect take them for, designing a £500k build when their budget was £250k and then they spent more on several additional iterations of drawings before getting a new architect.

Appreciate it's too late for your build, but those kind of costs make the SageGlass solution we used a viable option for anyone facing similar issues and for whom it's early enough to factor in.

That's not a garage, it's an aircraft hanger! ?

We've got 15mm throughout.

@lizzie it was about time you had a bit of good news!

Thanks Lizzie. Yes, there are inevitably ups and downs. She's learning to enjoy the good days and endure the not so good ones, but she's her worst enemy in that she tends to overdo it on the good ones and then suffer for it!

Hi Lizzie, really sorry to hear your new home has not had the positive impact on your health that ours has had for my wife. Feel bad for getting your hopes up when I first reported how much better she's been since moving in, and just hope things take a turn for the better for you soon.
