  2. https://www.building.govt.nz/assets/Uploads/projects-and-consents/guide-to-tolerances/guide-to-tolerances.pdf Here is a guide from NZ They have earthquakes so ...
  3. Put it inside and make a waterfall feature out of it? some nice forest scene wallpaper behind it and sorted!
  4. A sketch would help... how you design the roof and where the rainwater goes might be a good first thought. Also, what’s the workshop for? This will influence things like heating, humidity, comfort, building regs and much more. Are you going to pickle stuff?
  5. I’m a hutter at Carbeth, cost me £10k to build and I could live there off grid easily enough...might sell the house once the youngest has gone and do just that look here for how to go about it in glorious Scotia https://www.thousandhuts.org/
  6. https://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-64572999.html Here’s a two bed with moderately nice bathrooms, you southerners will wince at the £500k price tag though...
  7. In an old friends mothers house, it was what we call a mansion up a close. It was pretty much Victorian original, they had a bathroom. in the middle of a big room there was a GIANT bath with giant taps that came out of the floor. The bath was in the middle of the room oriented corner to corner but you could socially distance four slaves (servants) around it. They were the kings of luxury. Big Alan the bouncer asked the lady of the house if he could use it. Yes, towels in the (fitted) cupboard and afterwards he said it’s the only bath he could float in without touching the sides and he wasn’t called Big Al for nothing
  8. Read the link above Dave, explains it all BTW American public toilets are weird, in the stalls, doors start at knee height and finish at shoulder height and the gap between door jamb and at the fastening side is a good half inch, it’s almost if they design in a lack of privacy
  9. DIY it David the forum will keep you right ?
  10. Welcome @sidekickdmr love your hut it’s lovely interior and well just everything great job
  11. Okay so have now investigated the American option of a siphonic toilet, read about this v European systems here https://toiletfound.com/siphonic-vs-washdown-toilet-which-is-better/ Ruled out due to small bore in the waste department Final lingering thought...why have we never ever seen a toilet shop which actually has the feckers plumbed in! I did once see a bath filled with blue water but H&S demanded it had a metal grill over it...toddler guard I guess
  12. You just have to send a picture now! I once stayed in a grand country house and the WC off of the billiard room had a bespoke toilet that was huge Also had a oak seat hinged and attached to the wall, everything about it was ornate, carved and very grand In village near Glendaruel on the Mull of Kintyre I recall
  13. Does the capacity of the pan have to equal the capacity of the cistern...otherwise with a complete block we have overflow?
  14. Hello @Nickfromwales not seen you around, hope ye are all well. i have a client with autism who is regularly blocking the WC and we think she may be excessively wiping and putting LOTS of toilet paper down before flushing. I know there are volume of water regs and in England you have water meters, this is not an issue in this circumstance I can’t find a bigger flush toilet even in the disabled listings would a raised cistern create more ‘push’ what’s the collective opinion? As with all of my clients, money is tight and if it’s ££££ no chance of that happening Second question, would the run of the 110 waste pipe work in any way cause/ stop pan blocking?
  15. Almost there @Temp
  16. Hmmmm front of the class and new glasses for you... Must pay attention
  17. Incidentally a single shoe can be referred to as a neighbour...
  18. @Temp come and sit at the front of the class, must try harder
  19. Nope but nice working out bronze star awarded
  20. Silver star for the first correct answer
  21. Interesting... double wall them and have UFH and it’ll be like a a Roman villa but probably very very expensive Ask @Brickie and @Brickforce69
