  1. I think the quote was literally meaning a hair dryer from Lidl not a Parkside multi tool from Lidl. Saying that I imagine Lidl hair dryers (Silver Crest brand?) are probably OK too. Just bought their £9.99 waffle maker and that's alright. Oddly enough I don't shop at Waitrose!
  2. This I think is that referenced "no longer available" inner bearing: https://www.ebay.co.uk/p/Genuine-Daewoo-DAE3616303100-Ball-Bearing/1651067964
  3. Midland Bearings are v.helpful I find.
  4. Me too. Got a draw full of crap tools from Makro etc. Never use 'em. The Parkside multi tool however I have not stopped using. Plenty of grunt, nice feel and passes the drop test. Quick change would have been nice. I only got it as my original Draper multi tool had a non standard blade fitting. Top one is the Draper - weird hex fitting, lower one I think my mates MacAllister. He's now gone 18V DeWalt.
  5. Snob!
  6. Still got 'em in Lidl!
  7. Had a BIG barney with the missus years ago and punched a door in frustration. Even bigger row ensued! Still fuming off I went to Wickes to get a replacement. I took the front passenger seat headrest off to get the cheap sapele door in the back of the car. Driving too fast I took a sharp left hand turn and the door slid across, pinning me against the driver's window by the neck. I couldn't steer so carried on into the hedge!
  8. There's a bloke over on UK Whitegoods asking the very same! Any use? https://www.partmaster.co.uk/washing-machine/dwd-g1441s/bearing/catalogue.pl?shop=daewoo&path=108198&model_ref=1264258&refine=bearing
  9. My chippy mate is raving about the DeWalt 18V one he's just bought. Like I always tell him, the big problem with DeWalt is that it's YELLOW!
  10. I've knocked 7 shades out of mine. Really can't fault it. Saxton blades btw.
  11. Parkside / Lidl £29.00 its a steal.
  12. I stand corrected! Anyway its in Falmer which is a civil parish in the Lewes District of EAST Sussex. And it's NOT to be confused with Brighton uni please!
  13. Geberit WALL drain like mine? If you start now there's a good chance you'll finish before me! Or indeed Geberit Clean Line?
  14. Afternoon & welcome. Some nice country down there (my boy's at University of East Sussex).
  15. One man's scrap yard is another's Classic Ford collection...
  16. I really should be using the tools I have, not buying more!
  17. Least of it's worries! Got two new sills to go on so it's SORNed at the mo!
  18. Can't you just get your hand down there to clean the boss, brush on a good slug of solvent adhesive and push a bit of grey back down?
  19. Inside/on top, whatever works. The beauty of an old, cheap workhorse!
  20. Page 4 here shows two variations on the terracotta stuff; solid wall and foam core: http://www.polypipe.com/sites/default/files/Terrain_Underground_Broch_July_201376.pdf Not got a clue what the bit I used was...unless I can find the offcut!

    Edpm or grp ?

    It'll damage generations that!
  22. I did glue brown to grey with solvent weld and solvent weld FILLER as I mistakenly ran a length of brown in my wall rather than grey. Although both PVC they're different BS numbers. The brown feels softer/more resilient/less brittle. Even when cleaned with IPA and roughed up the brown doesnt "melt" as well. Though the assembly passed the water test I did go over the top with CT1. Fingers crossed!
  23. Last Night an ex DJ Saved My Life "There's not a problem that he can't fix 'Cause he knows all the tricksAnd if your pan gives you trouble…" 'Cause away goes trouble down the drain Said away goes trouble down the drain Well alright" It was even by Indeep!
  24. Been using CG stuff for 30 years. Phase failure relays, phase angle relays, Dupeline etc and going back far enough their F System. As I found out recently if you want anything obsolete from Carlo they can still possibly make it for you but with an 8 week lead time. I think part of that was due to Italian holidays. Always very helpful and communicative tbh. eBay saved the day in my instance with a NOS item from Down Under as the client couldn't wait.
  25. This is a Plasson 25mm MDPE fitting disassembled to show the split olive and how it fits in the locknut. I reckon you'll be able to remove it ok. The slot in the olive is at 6 o'clock in the second picture:
