Sorted. Removed the IEC mains inlet and switch on the 3D printer. Knocked up a little stainless plate and fitted a male Molex with the pins nicely spaced out. The PSU is getting mounted externally. All this connector has is 3 reds & 3 blacks at 12V from the PSU:

Ta. Gone with a set from Amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/IWISS-IWS-2412M-0-21-3-31mm²-Terminals-Connectors/dp/B08BLCJ5BP/ref=asc_df_B08BLCJ5BP/?

I got these connectors from Maplin probably 35+ years ago. I think they may be Molex or similar. It was when I was making quick release car stereo harnesses for mates so they could take the factory head unit out and fit aftermarket ones. Then quickly fit the original when they sold the car. I had a tool for crimping them once but it's long gone. They comprise a white plastic shell that you push the crimped M/F ends into. A shell below attached to the 3D printer: These are the female crimps: Can anyone point me at a suitable crimping tool? Cheers

For a painful experience see @pocster!

Spanish is it?

Could print some full infill, PETG packs/feet extensions. Around 700MPa I think.

Buy some 18mm ply and cut some squares / rounds to sit under the cabinet feet. Drill 3mm recesses in each with a spade bit. Give a good coat of pu varnish. Immovable 15mm packs.

Could that pipe be taken out through the gable end then empty into the car port gutter maybe? Then is that something I could do legitimately?

Haven't looked closely, my brother sent it to me. It's on the CH.

The best bit it Dad was a BG pensioner, one of their own you might say. They took the header tank out and replaced with a small pressure vessel to make a sealed system.

Cheap sturdy vacuum cleaner for DIY cleanup
Onoff replied to Gill's topic in General Self Build & DIY Discussion
I bought a Wickes branded Earlex WD1000 over 30 years ago. Still my goto shop / car vac. It's had one full strip down and clean. The thing just goes on and on. I've two identical combi filters I alternate between. Just hose them off and let dry. Chippy mate has the same one and loves it the same. Wish I'd bought another when TLC were selling them off. They sometimes come up on Gumtree etc. -

Call me mad but how about some large, moisture hungry plants in the space below the lightwell?

Does it fit would have been my question!

You usually put in a chunk of EPS or pir in the slab and cast it in level. Then dig out and position the waste. -

Should have bought a tile levelling system. -

Dunno, got this for nothing and even got two new batteries for it, for nowt, the other week. 500W. Just use it for the phone, answerphone and router. -
She has mentioned that.

I have run some 15mm Pex/PB inside 25mm galv electrical conduit. This was in the corner of a wall but that was more for mechanical protection against someone deciding it would be a good spot for a shelf bracket. It'd be a bit moot if someone decides to use a Bosch multi construction bit!
