  1. Thanks got the pm. I'm not hopeful, AutoCAD has saved the file with a weird .sv$ extenstion??? I'll send it anyway shortly, maybe it needs a package that reads STL files? Any colour's fine! Just seemed sensible to print something practical if we're going to try it so I grabbed the vernier and measured the remaining keyboard foot! Cheers
  2. Honestly, please don't waste your time and kit to this extent. I'm in no rush. We should have a machine here come Christmas anyway!
  3. Guessing these are the separate base ones? Only ever fitted them once. They do look bulky looking back! Weird how you forget things, could have sworn they were "flusher":
  4. Thanks, just realised I don't have an email for you!
  5. Nope, just 3 wires in and terminals from memory. Might have some pics somewhere...
  6. How about this? I quickly knocked up my missing keyboard leg! Nom 27 x 24 x 3.
  7. Thanks, what a polo sized thing maybe?
  8. Come December the Draftsight on my machines stops working. Tbh I only ever used it as my AutoCAD won't work on my 64-bit Windows 7 pc. Rather than pay for Draftsight I might pay the money and invest in Longbow.
  9. We once had to fit Kidde in a hurry, as a last minute thing when Aico weren't available (that afternoon). They were alright.
  10. My apologies...it was ME that messed up! Yes it is the right way around. Makita battery to Ferrex tool. I looked at so many Parkside, Einhell, Ferrex, Workzone. Could have sworn it was the "wrong way around! Seems my AutoCAD 2010 offers the ability to export as a Lithography (*.stl) file, is this the correct format?
  11. ? See if you can download the STL: https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/motor-shows-beijing-motor-show/world’s-first-3d-printed-car-due-roads-2019 ?
  12. https://www.aico.co.uk/technical-support/guides-publications/#navigation
  13. Think you need a vcl in the make up of that section?
  14. Pretty sure @Temp referenced a program earlier in the thread that allows you to slice STL files? I'm NOT looking forward to learning a new package(s) I can tell you now. AutoCAD till I die! Too old & jaundiced! (I will though).
  15. Thanks. I think though mine will need to be specials: Makita battery to Ferrex tool. I can only find Ferrex battery to Makita tool as a ready made item.
  16. Cordless tool battery adapters if I get my way! Can't see the finish needs to be perfect.
  17. Why specifically did you go for a resin printer?
  18. I loaded my plugs with CT1 before I screwed into them. Mind I only did the shower handset riser rail.

    Quite looking forward to wiring in the wet and cold under a tarp with a small fan heater blowing on my hands so I can pick up the bootlace ferrules and my feet frozen. Be a bit of a busman's tbh. Anyone guess the optimum run off angle for a cap stone and the concrete mix to go for?
  20. I've bucked the trend I guess. I've water in first, in a 750mm deep trench but in a (blue), 63mm duct. Then the plan is green duct on top for CCTV and that's it. Of course it's now so long since I laid the water main and sand blinded it its partially self back filled, so I'll need to re dig a bit to lay the green duct! There are good (in my head) reasons why the green duct didn't go in, mainly SWMBO's reluctance to let me dig the front path up. A trench along the front of the house would have let me route water straight to the kitchen side of the house where tbh it always should have come in ideally. Similarly the CCTV duct could go to the eventual DVR position a lot easier. She just won't think big! ?
  21. Ta. Haven't forgotten about trying those headphone repair bits btw...just haven't gotten around to it!

    And we're done: Need to infill this bit between fence and pillar. Probably just do an infill same as the fence: And I guess similar the other side where I'd like to redo the falling down neighbour's fence the same as mine. All needs a damn good acid clean off and the odd bit of missed pointing here and there. More drilling for conduits next and routing of cables for pillar lights and so on. Need to figure the cap stone moulds too.
  23. 1mm per day?
  24. On the back of my ill fated attempt to purchase a cheapo 3D printer from Cogkart SWMBO informs me that my eldest would like one for himself. This'll be a 21st birthday/Xmas present (21st & 25th Dec respectively). So, what to buy? Looking for an out of the box, turn key solution. Thinking up to £300. How about this Aldi one? https://www.aldi.co.uk/balco-3d-printer/p/086887240233900 Any suggestions gratefully received! Cheers
  25. ? but it was finished & quickly!
