Onoff

Unless you absolutely must toast marshmallows why not an electric, log effect stove for the traditionalists or an LCD flame effect heater? Different I suppose if your wood is free.

His 'n hers Gary Glitters.

Looks like the Noo Noo!

Can't remember how I got mine on! Got a feeling I used a trolley jack. I know I had the pipes on the pan then fed them into the wall:

First word "prisethem"?

You going to replace those two butchered tiles? ?

Been there, done that, plenty o' lube and remove the burrs.

You want to be sticking that pan to the tiled wall with clear CT1 then leaving for 36 hours before planting your ar$e on it. Put the pan on, mask the wall then back off and pump in the good stuff. Tighten up and baby wipe the excess. Remove the tape. Go over with a silicone of your choice.

Those bullets don't look like Geberit tbh? Milano? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Milano-Wall-Hung-Toilet-Fixing/dp/B07QX5VMJM/ref=asc_df_B07QX5VMJM/?tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=309957120848&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=10449256194739964687&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9045888&hvtargid=pla-741154526128&psc=1

Is the pan Geberit?

Isn't there a big plastic assembly in the back of the pan? The screw on bullets go into that...

Skip to 3m50s:

That looks longer than might fit...

By how much? Can you lower the U shape cutout with an appropriate diameter Starrett (for a neat job) and retrim it? Guessing not...or:knock up a dead neat 3 sided piece in melamine, screw from the back of the drawer.

Nobody seen White Gold? (Netflix). Never a truer word said. I recall when having "double glazing" fitted to your house was a status thing. Windows being made deliberately undersized by a country mile to speed up the install. Bloody great gaps left covers with wood trim or upvc strip mitred bonded on. No expanding foam as that would have held the job up. The draughts around the outside made the windows probably less airtight that the old wooden ones taken out. Clearly it still goes on today. I've a number of ill fitting 2G windows to rectify as I go. The couple I've bought and fitted myself have been fitted with foam and/or Compriband. The difference is very noticeable in terms of draughts and noise reduction to those with giant gaps. See the trim at the top: 20mm gap and the top. Sides and bottom similar: Gap at the bottom when the sill was removed: Animals!

My brother's a barrister and he charges travel time.

It often comes down to a minimum hour each way (like we charge). There's still an element of travel, having to park, parking fees etc. How close exactly are they then? It's a two way street. Any professional service will charge high hourly rates etc. Useful for covering their various insurance premiums for when they do get things wrong! ?

How many times have you sued professional services out of interest?

Well I cleared the tools out...

"I just need to use the head!"

This comes up a lot. Have a good read here:

Dymo labeller at Aldi: https://www.aldi.co.uk/dymo-labelmaker/p/803497428917600? Ideal for making grid switches look dog rough! ?

Illbruck is a name to conjure with. Really good stuff. They do airtight expanding foam and tape too similar to Compriband. <£10 a tin to go in a foam gun. A couple of quid cheaper you have Everbuild acoustic/airtight foam. We have a "window" man on here, can't recall his name, Craig?

I nearly bought my lad a laser engraving add on head for his 3D printer at Christmas. I couldn't for the life of me think what to use it for at the time! I was thinking wood/leather. Saying that I'm not too sure how plastic will fare with the laser...

A bit late now but... ...you can always mount the grid horizontal and have the writing in line with the switch action. Saves you getting a stiff neck! ?
