  1. Steady on, he's not Savile/Glitter/Edwards!
  2. Not gone for p!ss yellow this time then?
  3. Hackintosh
  4. 15m to be more accurate...
  5. It certainly would. Post some up of what you've got!
  6. Decent make, brand new, 1/2" router bit against a fence will make a dead straight, razor sharp clean edge on the bottom of the door. Better than a planed edge.
  7. Deja vu! At least it doesn't leak. Will it end up skipped?
  8. 6x2 stud here. Coach screws in from the side You could even consider doubling up on the studs either side: On the wall a length of unistrut. Studs off that to the Geberit frame. You can just see where I used studding connectors to extend the original Geberit studs. I'd be thinking on the lines of insetting a chunky bit of steel angle into each face of the stud to bolt to. Pass the fixings studs through that it replaced with longer studs/ hex extenders etc. I also marine ply faced the lot: Then Aqua Panel: Sikaflex first: Self drill screws into the Geberit frame: More Sikaflex: Aqua Panel:
  9. Why not just do the wall in 200mm deep studs. You could have some nice feature pockets or an inset medicine cabinet.
  10. https://www.fhbrundle.co.uk/gate-hardware/drop-bolts-and-bars?query=&sort_by=score&sort_asc=false&material=["Galvanised"]
  11. So far I've just sat the 4 (softwood) legs in little tins of genuine creosote. Not sure how far they'll draw it up. The whole frame is nom 46x46 timber. Plan is to clad in pallet wood both sides with 40mm Celotex in between. I just want a preserver that won't off gas and poison the cats.
  12. What are folks thought's on this preservative stuff, safe & effective still or snake oil? I want it for a cat "kennel": https://www.gardening-naturally.com/eco-wood-treatment
  13. Why have they left it unfinished? What was the original plan to fill the hole?
  14. I asked ChatGPT the likelihood of a borehole hitting water giving it my address and postcode. Reckoned 70-80%.
  15. Bloke from the water board came out when I had a leak. East European lad. Whipped out some divining rods but said the water board frowned upon them so I'd best not mention it. He located the leak within 10' over about 50m. Said he couldn't be 100% as there was a concrete path alongside the house. The leak was under the path. The path had been reinforced with old chain link fencing. Guess that masked his divining a bit.
  16. That's me and I'm constantly stressed and on edge.....except when I'm drunk.
  17. I'm building a gothic inspired, TF tree house for our cats...from lumber mill offcuts, free timber yard packing and pallets... I'll get me coat...
  18. Any stainless brackets I used to have made, I'd ask for them to be "pickled". An acid was applied to remove discolouration and any scale from the welding pieces. Back in the day the part was dumped on the ground and nitric or hydrofluoric acid poured over it. Soaked up by the dusty yard and neutralised when it rained. Happy days!
  19. Gumtree, FB Marketplace etc.
  20. Tanking, tanking and more tanking. Geberit wall drain in my case. It just "works":
  21. I just need some women's tights for support now.
  22. At last! Soon @Pocster, soon.
  23. Easy to upset it too:
  24. Let it get soaked then try.
