  1. Sounds like my place (in Kent).
  2. I've stacks of 25mm box section, circa 3.5m lengths. Did toy with the idea of making up welded lattice beams for garden building roofs. I could make it but the structural calcs aren't my thing
  3. When I did the pallet shed with the nephew we fitted a 4x2 wall plate to the top of the pallet walls. From memory we in effect infilled the top.
  4. You could perhaps loop some builders band over the rafters and bring down the inside face of the pallets?
  5. What are we looking at, the side of the shed with the roof set at a fall? Only thing I might do is face the "4x2s" or whatever they are with ply, brought flush to the face of the pallets. A birdsmouth I think stops the rafter slipping of the wall plate. Glue some wedges in there maybe then screw down with long screwd?
  6. No issue with pooling. Heavy snow, if it melts can refreeze. The gate track profile lends itself to running a trace heating cable up inside it. I've a duct in ready for it. Tbh beech nuts are the biggest issue. They'll stop the gate in it's track.
  7. I mulled a giant solar thermal array and glycol filled loop with insulation under the path / drive. It's just a pipe dream though...
  8. I considered two insulated / heated tyre tracks up my sloping drive. I will at least likely fit a trace heating element in my sliding gate track.
  9. How are the rooflight leaks, all sorted now?
  10. Surely the help does that?
  11. How about...bath through 90 deg. Shower top left. Pocket door then towel rail nearer the door? Don't really want the towel rail near the pan.....you might burn your knee. Then there's splashback etc 😬
  12. & towel rail between pan and door?
  13. A pocket door would give you more options to play with the space.
  14. All I can offer is traditional relays. Probably with a DIN rail mounting base.
  15. Especially with kids.
  16. When Doves Cry?
  17. I think there's a capacitor in there that stays charged when the light is "off". Also some clever circuitry that lets pulsed power through to keep it charged but not enough to put the light on. Or something like that!
  18. So you just want a relay, with a 230V coil, that'll switch 230V at some amps?
  19. I never did, thought I perhaps could, couldn't and now don't care.
  20. I've a few relays and bases kicking around here. Resistors too.
  21. I made some almond slices last night:
  22. How about granite? How far is @scottishjohn from you?
  23. Is that mouldy silicone btw? Try Forever White.
  24. That'll be the urine seeping out of the grout! Seriously, what have you got behind there, pipework wise? Was it push fit from memory?
  25. I'm amazed you're not making them yourself! Something like this? They make to order: https://www.silverapplewood.co.uk/products/solid-pine-spice-rack-5-tiers-shelves
