  1. The new stat, from the German supplier should be arriving tomorrow. When I've replaced stat before (twice in 30 years?) I've just used plain ordinary silicone to seal where the capilliary comes through the back of the fridge. Would CT1 or intumescent be better?
  2. Loft stilts available in different heights.
  3. Its where it tucks into the wall is critical. Ideally a slot at a slight angle. Has the lead been oiled? Really brings it up.
  4. I might: - Mark where the bracket is going. - With a 25mmm Starrett drill the pb and mark the block behind with the pilot of the Starrett. - Drill the wall for resin studs. - Puff out the holes. - Inject resin, push in studs. - Put a nut on each stud then a penny washer level with the face of the pb. - Bolt bracket on Only issue I can see is whether the M10 nuts & protruding studs holding the bracket on would affect the bit of the bracket attached to the tv. Also would want to get the studs all the same length.
  5. Is that Maggie from The Simpsons?
  6. Aerated, hollow, medium density etc?
  7. What are the blocks?
  8. Well that didn't last long! Controller is playing silly buggers again. This despite the new cap. Might try the battery if I can find what voltage it is.
  9. Skipping through your comments...30 tubes on a presumably clear winters day will feed a 300L then with a useful amount of heat? What about overcast days? I've heard you still get heat input with ST.
  10. Boy are you in for some questions when I do mine!
  11. I THINK the rules might be stricter if AONB, area of special scientific interest etc. https://www.planningportal.co.uk/wales_en/info/3/common_projects/34/outbuildings
  12. My experience of ST panels here is that could perhaps get too hot to feed some pcms and that you could cook them without some sort of temperature limiting and heat dump.
  13. I wonder if like me you'll be wishing you'd knocked it down and rebuilt from scratch! Oh, and welcome!
  14. I used to come across "light agg" on roofs around 30 years ago. At least that's how it was pronounced. Really thick, laid to falls on top of structural concrete and good in compression. Dead easy to dig through though. This was before "blue board" insulation so I assume it had inherent insulation properties.
  15. How a out something like this? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FLORABEST-2-IN-1-CORDLESS-GRASS-Hedge-TRIMMER-LI-lON-TECHNOLOGY-3-6-V/223455384449? Had something similar in Lidl today but I didn't look too close.
  16. Cut a sliver of board on thd table saw and glue it in if that fussed.
  17. If you're not having UFH in the base slab why the perimeter strip of insulation? Not like it's going to heat up and expand....
  18. Try the cheapo S'fix spray adhesive if the foam won't have it. Try on a small area first. Looks like perimeter strip is it?
  19. You deserve a night on the tiles for that effort...
  20. Rubi Practic 60 here. Not all that impressed.
  21. You could still have a sill on some ornate brackets?
