  1. Handy offer that is @DrawCAD If BC knock back my pencil and paper drawings for a building warrant, I'll come knocking ?
  2. https://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/GSM-900MHz-LCD-Mobile-Cell-Phone-2G-Signal-Booster-Amplifier-EU-Plug/292592241021?hash=item441fdb497d:g:A2oAAOSwwq1axJw7 If you do make sure it's the correct frequency...look at the item description in this link for a list of UK providers and the frequency they use.
  3. Is that not called a register plate. In my basic reading, researching for a brick chimney for a timber hut, the register plate is often bespoke and made for each application. As far as I understood, this makes up the horizontal plate which provides a fireproof barrier above the stove AND takes the weight of the structure above. They are normally made of thick steel with a hole cut to accept the stove flue. I guess being (expletive deleted) off thick steel, it's no problem to mount any type of chimney liner on top. No expert, and, not sure I understand but my tuppence worth if it helps?
  4. Welcome John ?
  5. Bottle jack would move it too as long as it's got something to push against...you might not have enough room to swing a sledgehammer as per @PeterW suggestions
  6. There should be some visqueen scraps kicking around which would do the job. Visqueen is thick plastic damp proofing seen everywhere on a build ?
  7. @JSHarris our resident chemist will tell you how to get some, or make some and if your lucky how to not make an explosion while making some.
  8. Nope, stray blade of grass there...messing up the magazine shot. Poor performance if you know...?
  9. See @LeanTwo now you know lots of things. The correct way The wrong way An in between way And the joy of buildhub???
  10. Yup...up to you. Here's one with a tap connector but needed in this application because of the type of valve I used. You could maybe run a file over the end of the fitting mating up with the washer. @Nickfromwales will be along shortly for an expert opinion ?
  11. Re-read this...answer is yes. Bin the compression nut from one end of the valve and screw on the flexi tail which achieved the seal via a rubber washer. Hand tight then quarter turn only...don't cut into the washer.
  12. Take it easy pal...do a bit, do it well and have a pint... repeat ???. Looks very solid so far
  13. Hope you guys are enjoying this. Personally I'm voting YES PS battery storage is kinda getting lost, find a room.
  14. Good luck in your endeavours no matter what house you end up with. I reckon your the sort of dad who will be have your girls back and I'm sure she'll appreciate a hand to get her started. The chaps on here aren't usually insensitive and may have missed the bit about walking to work... Come back with questions if you take the plunge, lots of quality advice. Best of luck
  15. If you look it up on the planning portal you will find its £401 per dwelling. There answered your own question you lazy monkey...
  16. The committee want to apply for planning for 5 huts at various locations across the site...can I get away with this in a single application for the £401 fee? Huts website for those who know nothing of which I speak ? http://www.carbethhutters.co.uk
  17. Don't edit the original post, it will cause confusion ..just add a new post, makes it easier for others to follow the flow ???
  18. What are you trying to achieve? What state are the floor joists? Is there a vented underfloor? You mentioned UFH ...is it to insulate the floor?
  19. Looks smashing @Onoff...maybe a bit of spare plasterboard behind those holes in the ceiling might help then another coat...that's how I'd go
  20. What a good looking build. Builders have a rough Highland look too, beardy and relaxed...can't wait to see the next floor/ truss go in
