Onoff

Not got a clue but reading with great interest as I've got the one to install I got from @PeterStarck. The incoming main is a mile away from the boiler, wm, DW etc. Trying to get my head around it!

The mountain would be smaller once crushed. If you did have too much at the end you'd get plenty of takers for it I'm sure. Factor in some bottles to placate the neighbours if it's that noisy!

Wet pallets seem to lead to rusty nails in my experience. The combination of swollen, wet wood and nails that have grown with rust can make them tough to bust up. Then you get pallets that have gotten wet previously but (like now) are super dry. Busting those and the now shrunken wood can in fact pull off the rusted nails leaving the nails in the bearers.

Add another $20 for shipping & import taxes to the UK: https://www.amazon.com/Multi-Angle-Brick-and-Block-Cutter/dp/B01LR94QNE/ref=sr_1_fkmr2_1?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1535016403&sr=8-1-fkmr2&keywords=marshall+block+cutter (Don't make me make one! )

I would hope their's is toughened steel maybe like fork prongs. Without trying it I don't know how well it performs but it appears to work equally as well as mine if not better and be lighter. Gut feel is that the "S" bend shape of the forks adds strength and also aids the lifting action, lifting one side first then the other? Tbh lifting one side first then the other should take less effort. MIne was specifically made with the intent of putting equal pressure across the two nails - it therefore takes more grunt. I reckon there's less chance of splitting the wood. Tricky one to call! The corporate sell for the Roughneck: Using it for real: This was the one I was at one time going to copy.....doubles for getting cats off of pallets As ever I did mine as much for the satisfaction and the simple "could I". I can!

Anyone got a link to standard pallet sizes, ideally with dimensions? Cheers

Loved this from the start.

That came across as having more expletives in for some reason!

Yes that's the idea.

As said above I thought it was a st/st sink.

When I thought you were drilling STAINLESS!

Dunno what you have to do for free delivery but this has a 35mm one in that should be OK for composite: https://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/p/car-accessories/summer-essentials/car-accessories/summer-essentials-deals/?553983340&0&cc5_1055 And no, I cant find it any cheaper!

Again, what is the sink made of? EDIT: Sorry just read "composite fancy Franke"

Making it look pretty with a rattle can found in the garage: Can spray paint go out of date? Damp, early evening isn't maybe the best time to spray tbh...the runs! Anyway, paint finish should last for a good 30 seconds on the tool's next outing!

Yes you could do it that way if you have the patience. Scribe a line nom 32m dia. Run round with a centre punch on the line at about 3mm between each one. Drill all your 3mm holes assuming the drill doesn't slip into the adjacent hole. Then curse like f**k that HSS doesn't really like drilling st/st - HsCo is what you want. You will struggle to get a hacksaw in there but by all means try. You'll need to "worry" the piece out of there. Good luck with that. Then a half round file to make good. What a balls ache! I can do no more than tell you the right way to do something. DO NOT be tempted to buy this sort: https://www.ebay.co.uk/p/Amtech-M1590-Carbon-Steel-Hole-Saw-and-Mandrel-Set-5-piece/2254794706?iid=282912646136

You said you need a 35mm hole in the new sink? You'll need this: https://www.screwfix.com/p/erbauer-bi-metal-holesaw-35mm/72961 & a suitable arbor for it to go on: https://www.screwfix.com/p/quick-hitch-holesaw-arbor-11mm/12437 If you're flush then Bosch Progressor hole saw sets are superb and quick change too. The 14-piece set includes a 35mm I think. What's your new sink made out of?

Not where I live.....well at least my neighbour didn't give a f**k when he got an industrial sized one off his mate and did it.

No, plenty of other weirdos just like you out there! Worry keeps the mind ticking over.

If it ends up you having to shift it then maybe hire a crusher and reuse as Type 1 or whatever you choose to grade it at under the drive etc.

Not at all. It's just that we too have our own lives to live. Although it might have been best not to have started this (and I'm beginning to wish you hadn't) you need to finish this. Charge that camera, take the pictures and try and not keep questioning good advice...is my advice. Seriously have you thought about moving?

Just spoken to the water jet cutters. They'll take 22 of the mosaics off of me and take 125mm off both ends of each one to 0.5mm accuracy for £60. That'll give me 44 tiles to do the strips up each side of the wet room corner. Getting another price from the other local place.

So you take decent photos to show what you've got and you post up on here for help without all the how much it's depressing you crap. You need to see a doctor for that not us! The odd wobble people will handle and sympathise but when it's constant they'll just switch off and think you're a nutter! I've done most things I now ask about but years ago and in all honesty not too well. If you ask on here you are drawing on a wealth of experience given freely. Do it once, do it right or as near as dammit. When half a dozen people are telling you the same thing the issue is you not them. All the dressing and moaning risks takes this seriously off topic. You could have the old sink balancing on "a workmate" for what it's worth or some lash up out of scrap batten and still use it without the kitchen units having to be in place. To shift the sink you just isolate, detach with the Hep2O tool, unscrew the waste and move out of the way. YES you will lose a bit of water each time.

Top tip, fill the kettle, water filter up etc BEFORE you disconnect the plumbing! You could......temporarily extend your plumbing and waste pipes and put the sink in "the middle " of the room and work round it. No incentive to get it done though then!

Dog rough sketch but this is mine. Be aware of the width between angles and mod if req'd to suit the pallet main members: Don't forget to put the st/st nylocs on the bolts with a bit of copper slip etc. Stops them binding!

Get under the sink with a camera and you'll get helpful suggestions for sure.
