  1. I seem to recall @Barney12 at least installing a ground loop. Not sure if it's connected / running.
  2. The zoom ain't that good.
  3. If you like the style then go for it. Ftting should be easy enough. Not so sure about the £349 RRP though! On frames go for a name like Geberit or Grohe I would.
  4. Really pleased for you. Looks great. Some rain over the next few days. Will that affect anything?
  5. Look at Coburn too. For example: https://www.coburn.co.uk/product/straightaway-250/
  6. The Helm tracks go down to really small sizes. Helm track 300 for instance is only 35 X 40mm and tested to 170kg. It's all about how you hide the track.
  7. I used to use Helm 600 in 6m lengths. Helm 700 for bigger jobs. BEH_0609.pdf
  8. They do a "cut to size" option. Check out Metreel for their sliding door gear which is Helm based.
  9. Why not just get a joiner to make a door that size and use say Helm track.
  10. Indeed, before they're legislated off the road for good!
  11. Take a look at Capri part prices and you might change your tune. Silly money and then some!
  12. 7 minutes? Lucky girl!
  13. I must have missed that.
  14. Is it as long as it's on wheels or as long as it can be moved? Could you substitute lifting eyes for wheels?
  15. If it wasn't for us being an AONB etc I'd have built a green roofed, passive esque "tiny house" for my lad (and I've have finished it). Got the land, no overlooking neighbours etc. Then there's council tax implications too. Barstewards! An Englishman's home etc. I think even a garden room is a no no where I am without pp. When you consider what the illegal beds in sheds brigade get up to.
  16. Like a Borrower.
  17. Just saw the corner off the door. Glue that bit in permanently.
  18. Think about it, there's a precedent here... You can ask shed load of questions & the end result will look really good.
  19. Arched door? You could make that and the frame I'm sure.
  20. Well... The revised/reprinted Makita to Ferrex adapter works...'ish.First mistake was not tinning the copper blades prior to inserting them into the plastic. I put too much heat on one of the blades and it "sunk" into the print. Tbh that's just aesthetics.In use...the hedge trimmer works fine...for about 2 seconds then stops. Release & pull the front handle again and you get another 2 seconds. Makita (clone) battery is fine and charged. I tried 2 3Ah batteries, then 2 5Ah, same issue. It's actually useable as in you cut on one pass, stop, then go again. I wonder why.....some intelligence in the tool or battery? The hedge trimmer manual say to only use Ferrex 20V 2Ah or Ferrex 20/40V 2.5Ah batteries.
  21. Isn't it that Sumamp moved the goalposts? They simply no longer do the models the happy early adopters had. Replaced by less flexible kit.
  22. This is a good article from back in 2016 if you have access to The Times online: https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/tiny-homes-become-the-next-big-thing-smnj8ns9t Of late the FT covered the issue: https://www.ft.com/content/6276e4b2-41c6-11ea-a879-e56a76ed3e8a
  23. If I had those 3 (free) ST panels up on my roof now what would HW be costing me? Zero I'm guessing. I think you have to change the glycol in there every few years though? Hell, even my DIY ST system produced amazing results for an outlay of zero. Low tech compared to PV I appreciate but ST to me still seems a bit of a win win. @scottishjohn?
  24. The right place to do them...
