Have you not thought about getting a stud detector? ? Lucky you took all those photos and wrote measurements on the wall before boarding ?

It's 1.732 X 16 X 400 X 0.001 isn't it? Equals 11 as you say.

Champagne budget / Babysham taste! ? Robbins do veneered sheet: https://www.robbins.co.uk/products-prices/sheet-material/

Didn't think you would be up for that with it not being reassuringly expensive.

How about this place? https://www.robbins.co.uk/products-prices/hardwood/ Available in 300mm wide. Guess you would need to biscuit joint it to make a bigger board. They'll likely know somebody able to pander to your whims.

I'm just here to part a fool with his money!

Just make a simple jig up (to suit your particular router) that you clamp to your timber and route out with a 3mm bit: Practice run first on scrap.

I'll dunk this Tower 3 port in a bucket of citric acid to de-rust the bolts. I'll strip it apart when done. A few thoughts if you DIY it: I fitted like for like originally, replacing Tower valves with the same. I dicked around replacing micro switches and other components here and there. I used PTFE tape as was on them when I took them off. All the valves leaked over time. I replaced the x2 2 ports and x1 3 port with Honeywell. This time, no PTFE tape just Jet Blue Plus thread sealing compound. Getting the old olives off; a multi tool with bi-metal blade (like hacksaw teeth) is good. The nuts on the Tower valve aren't the same thread as on the Honeywell. I was going to see if I could get away with reusing the Tower nuts/olives on the Honeywell valve...I couldn't even though both valves are for 28mm pipe.

You can't beat graphite lock lubricant. Often in a powder puffer. Saying that I have had a decent one in an aerosol from Lidl/Aldi.

That's a few quid for a 3P one...

Keep the 8bar pressure for your outside tap(s) or onward feed to outbuildings etc. Go stopcock, outside tap then reduce afterwards. It's only what our very own Welsh Wizard @Nickfromwales told me. I too have 8bar coming in. Does mean you have to check/tighten your garden hose connections now and then and as required clean your prv mesh filter.

I don't blame you moving. Dartford wasn't too bad once but it's becoming an extension of inner city London imo.

Born and schooled in Dartford. First job there.....first house.....

In the next scene O'Neil and Jackson use the teleporter to transport the bomb to Ra's ship and the ensuing blast destroys the ship in space, along with Ra.
