    The other pillar: This side will be in shadow ?: A very careful application of silicone eater might tidy the bricks up a bit. Should have masked up first I guess! I'll admit to resorting to a surgical glove dipped in a water / washing up liquid mix to finish things off!

    It's RUSTIC! ?

    Getting ready for the buff coloured silicone! Packed with this stuff first: Looking forward to giving the pillars a mild Disclean!
  4. I wonder if that board has come from a commercial setting and been fitted at mate's rates? ? Weird that contactor on the left and the D breakers in a domestic setting...though all "on" they might not all be used. Legrand is good gear mind. Might be able to add a few RCBOs on selected circuits.
  5. Yep, bought a couple of them to go with the other unopened packs bought over the years! The pack of step drills and the weird drill bit crossed with a rotary file set. Never really got on with step drills tbh, prefer Starretts. Saying that I killed the one step drill I had using it in stainless...
  6. I'd say there is a downpipe hidden in that square column/support. Goes into that Aico drain you can just see.

    That's because we're keeping it clean with mild inuendo rather than resorting to your usual, crass, in your face, blatant filth! ?

    NOW we wait for the paint to dry! Got my gland in!
  11. Cables entering as in plural? I wonder if the electrics in the lean to are just extensions of the house lighting circuits and ring mains rather than on a dedicated "Garage" circuit? Is there a circuit breaker in your consumer unit labelled as "Garage"?

    Never premature like some though! ?

    The duct is all run for the downlighters. I just stick my hand up inside, pop the gland through (on the end of the duct) and put the nut on. Another coat of paint to go on before that. Should look nice and tidy.

    Or in @pocster's case, like watching pants dry...

    Screw on the lamp base with a couple of M4 screws: Drill with a 20mm Starrett. The hole in the light fitting is a gnats under 20mm: Stick a washer between lamp base and post: Drill just the lamp base with a 27mm Starrett using the 20mm Starrett as the pilot, hits the washer and doesn't damage the post:

    Sort of but no plumbing involved! Just got to find/scrounge a 1/2" UNF 20tpi tap this morning... (Not that sort of tap! ?)

    Didn't do much tonight, lost my homemade Starrett adapter so had to drive to my mates to get the one I made him. He couldn't find it but did find another obscure bit of steel I gave him years back which has a 1/2" UNF 20tpi thread...that'll do. All will be revealed!

    Back on thread... Never thought I'd say it but it's looking like Knightsbridge! ? The fact it's apparently IP65 is the seller for me. Then it appears quite subtle. They'll only come on anyway when the gates open. https://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Products/GLWALL1LBK.html?
