  1. Blame the Hobgoblin... Not if but when!
  2. This was another 16mm pipe fitting:
  3. They say alcohol is good for snake bites. That's why I always carry a snake! (W C Fields I believe).
  4. This was the "agreed" drawing. I don't have the height for a swept bend: Which I've translated to this:
  5. Got some of those JD Ciders sitting here. My boy got them as a present, tried one, then decided he didn't really like them. I tried another but they're really not my thing. Also two chilli flavoured beers. Things aren't that desperate yet!
  6. Do you have to increase the fall angle if the run isn't straight, say an L shape?
  7. Not exactly blown away by the Marstons or the Razor Back. Starting a 12 box of Brewdog beers next...ones 7.2% ffs!
  8. The 15mm copper to 16mm pex al pex elbows I've used:
  9. Not knocking but deffo Chinese: http://vevor.m.manufacturer.globalsources.com/si/6008852403883/Showroom/3000000205896/32408/PEX pipe.htm
  10. Influenced I'm sure too by the level of debt on completion!
  11. This is where I got mine (back in Dec 2015 : http://stores.ebay.co.uk/esavep/?_dmd=1&_nkw=16mm+pex-al-pex
  12. You can have a play with volt drop here: https://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Technical/Charts/VoltageDrop.html The calculation behind this is volt drop = (mV/A/m) x lb x L 1000 Where: mV/A/m is the mili volt drop per amp per metre. Get that from the regs or OSG. Cable spacing and the reference method means the volt drop for a particular cable can vary. lb is the design current L is the length in metres and 1000...is erm 1000 to get it to volts.
  13. You can get 15mm in WBP ply.
  14. Cable sizing PLUS correction factors.
  15. Shaeffers Deck Stain maybe?
  16. Preferred the Lancaster Bomber and the Brakspear Bitter tbh. Got a Marstons Pedigree, Ruby Hobgoblin & Razor Back to finish the box. Not bad for just over £8: https://groceries.morrisons.com/webshop/product/Classic-Ales-Bottles/217666011
  17. Shame this isn't available in RAL colours. I put 3 coats on my bare softwood gate and it still looks like new. http://bedec.co.uk/bedec_products/barn-paint/
  18. Powered tonight by Jennings Cumberland Ale I'm psyching myself up to move this grey bog pipe! It needs to swing left to come parallel with the lagged incoming water pipe. I'm going to have to re-drill the hole for the far 25mm conduit to keep things parallell. Poxy tapered walls! A quick "sort it later 'coz it'll be redone in 22mm", why did I kink the 15mm at the end like that???
  19. Erm.....putting that end comment up on a public forum and you're asking for it really!
  20. Many years ago on a site in Bracknell a CCTV monitor went down one howling, wet windy night. The security guards decided it was a glitch. If they had been doing their foot patrols they would have noticed the scaffold that had broken loose and taken the camera off the wall before landing in the car park. Sackings ensued.
  21. I think my mate John the chippy's son in law is GSR. Has a caravan down in Herne Bay. I know he can do the UVC checks as well as I was talking to him if I went that route. I'll ask. Not having gas, GSR isn't a worry for me really. (NOT his permanent place of residence I hasten to add).
  22. You're no fun! But sketch something up and I'll consider changing my approach. A threaded rod will drive the lift.
