  1. Whiskey (or any other spirit) boxes/cardboard dunno where you get then but triple layer cardboard and you can fold the tops bombpoof , never fail are uniform size and liftable even when full of heavy things
  2. £125 for four of these job done
  3. Makes sense and boy are they cheap! 600x600 plus wall mount for £40 and a lovely bright light and dimmable ill look into it
  4. Been in for 18 months they have died slowly over that time. I have to get finger out now as one in small room it’s the only light, in the big room I’ve lost three out of 9 and there’s big windows so it’s still bright! is it a fair assumption it’s the ballast that’s gubbed?
  5. Well there’s now 4 of 8 double fittings gone out. Know nothing about how they work and have an electrician apprentice coming on Friday for a look. (He is cheap) @ProDave am I on the right track, oh and @Onoff I have ordered 4 of these and I’m guessing the juice will be getting through, I have tried changing tubes so these might be US and need replaced? The internet photos of the replacement ballasts look to have slightly different spade fittings even though they are the same brand/make and model number is this within the scope of a standard spark to fix? thanks TL
  6. At the hut I have a laptop fan running on a leisure battery powered from one solar panel (draws 0.1amp) 24 hours a day, vents under the floor. Now, given this is a dry toilet this means the smelly stuff is in situ so to speak and there’s no smell whatsoever
  7. Hi Joanna, I was brought up around the corner. Is it worth talking to the digger drivers who are currently working on the new builds across the road? It may be that since they are 'on site' so to speak you might get a homer done on the cheap...worth asking maybe.
  8. Cut a channel with an angle grinder so it drains away? cut several parallel groves a few mm apart and get busy with a mash hammer and a cold chisel to make the channel
  9. If your short of space one of these might help. Fitted on recently and you only need room to drill into the waste pipe. The boss slips into the hole and it locks in place by placing a tool (supplied) in the hole and twisting it. This mechanically locks the boss to the drainage pipe. Do you have room to fit a couple of these on top of your waste pipe?
  10. Welcome @Katy we like pictures and roughly where you are will help with answers due to different regulations for the various nations in the UK ?
  11. One of my favourite homes on the forum, lovely design and sits beautifully in its setting. love it
  12. Drivers came as a wee box, one for each panel the website sold two types of dimmer for these panels but didn’t buy them As I said the pics distort real life as they are more muted than they look, the blue is more sky than dark blue
  13. To finish this off... pics taken with a phone so they are not great photos but I’m pleased with the result. no on will be fooled into thinking it’s a window but the light is softer and less harsh than a double fluorescent tube. This last pic is with the main light on too but again the phone camera does not really capture it that well as it’s garishly bright lights £200 frames for wall mounting£72 and £2 for a junction box to wire them together job done!
  14. Saw this https://www.ledpanelstore.co.uk/set-of-4-sky-cloud-scene-1-led-panels-600mm-x-600mm-203.html?gclid=Cj0KCQjws7TqBRDgARIsAAHLHP7Xc4AszR-xVIl5wQ7bdJZncf3E8EWkdzgn1exDulKYzrcVEbPOCXIaAvAYEALw_wcB#horizontalTab2 it’s small (the office room) as was a former massage room in a beauty salon, so maybe the size of a very small single room. im thinking to put in a quality carpet and decent office furniture and one of these big led wall panels but! open to ideas from the forum
  15. Our glass balcony just exploded. Be warned if you have one, or are walking near a place with them in this heat. They aren't the safest structures right now. Be careful. #Glass #Heatwave From Twitter
  16. @JSHarris and @ProDave will both say no need as, well, why would you need it?
  17. Who the (expletive deleted) would live in a house like this...in England by golly! https://www.watfordobserver.co.uk/news/17776352.tiny-flats-no-windows-get-green-light-watford-appeal/
  18. I’m with Dave and your local guy who’s done plenty of local work. Crack on and worry not and enjoy the new space
  19. If always put a N/A answer and a comments box in case the selected choice answers do not fit completely. ive completed it good luck!
  20. 49 sq/m 3 bed timber cabin £204 per sq/m features dry toilet, solar lighting and luxury Habitat furniture via Gumtree ?

  23. Can’t see the video but there’s been an unseasonable amount of rain today wipers on full speed along the M8 coming back from the borders don't change things for rare events?
  24. Mmm retail, they have a swanky store in my town but as I drive by always looks empty apart from the weekend
  25. Local guy said no not worth his time...so could do with a new saw blade but slowly slowly
