Onoff

I'm not getting the recipe am I?

We've got their meter/stopcock outside the fence. Inside our fence another stopcock (the old meter position). 25mm MDPE all the way into the house where there's a brass stopcock. I'll be teeing off from the MDPE to garage, up the garden etc as required.

When it comes to any project in our house WE ALWAYS AGREE... That it's going to take ages!

Tbh I'll probably use my Evolution electric wacker plate seeing as I haven't made the other one yet!

I get to wear the hat with the big D on then!

I need to get rid of some hard-core so reckon I should get on with the shed (base) under the tree house. It's only about 10'x5'. You honestly don't need to hire a compacter. I did my last base with a hand tamper. Just a weight on pole you lift and drop.

In an attempt to find the cheapest mower... Bet they won't beat this: https://www.ebay.co.uk/i/352073280887?chn=ps&dispItem=1&adgroupid=45192390362&rlsatarget=pla-331477165372&abcId=1129006&adtype=pla&merchantid=7457754&poi=&googleloc=9045888&device=m&campaignid=861899495&crdt=0&ul_ref=http%3A%2F%2Frover.ebay.com%2Frover%2F1%2F710-134428-41853-0%2F2%3Fmpre%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.ebay.co.uk%252Fi%252F352073280887%253Fchn%253Dps%2526dispItem%253D1%26itemid%3D352073280887%26targetid%3D331477165372%26device%3Dm%26adtype%3Dpla%26googleloc%3D9045888%26poi%3D%26campaignid%3D861899495%26adgroupid%3D45192390362%26rlsatarget%3Dpla-331477165372%26abcId%3D1129006%26merchantid%3D7457754%26gclid%3DCNnjmdq4kNUCFZEy0wodHsUGmg%26srcrot%3D710-134428-41853-0%26rvr_id%3D1259863328223 Surely buy two for the second battery and spares?

That Costco Honda might fit the bill then, leccy and a good make?

Maybe some deals here: http://www.costco.co.uk/view/c/garden-sheds-patio/power-equipment/lawn-mowers-trimmers Only looked at the cheap electric Honda and MTD Smart petrol to compare prices but look reasonable as in cheaper than elsewhere on a quick trawl.

Your missus is sorting it!

My BiL's tractor with pto auger is good but hit a big root or flint and it'll throw it off. I'll still dig the odd one manually...just to keep my hand in.

Other end of that brown soil comes into this branch. Picking up a no name spray set for £3.99 to shove down the Geberit end. Just got to make sure it's not the one the kids use for water fights!

Are you laying it herringbone?

Get yourself a BFO trampoline (with net) and set it on bark / landscaping fabric. That'll keep the kids occupied whilst the grass establishes itself. And stepping stones too as required.

Thinking about it the Hozelock POS spray nozzle I bought broke, it's cr@p. Avoid. Has a button you can hardly push and varies the spray pattern on its own from where it's set. Think I know where the bits are so should take it back really. http://www.screwfix.com/p/hozelock-hose-nozzle-plus/5806t#product_additional_details_container

On the two grey/grey joints I've even run pvc solvent filler (that expensive stuff in a tube someone said to get) almost like a weld fillet after the main joint had set. Same on the brown/grey on the half I can get to. Was even debating on the brown/grey a few wraps of amalgamating tape then expanding foam around the lot...

What you want is a Seymour Post Hole Auger. Up to 8' deep it'll go. Sort of a closeable bucket on the end.

Fair play to her. You should go away more often! Maybe if I fecked off for a bit the bathroom would get done...

Missus.....and don't tell the hoover!

Longer handles.

Yep remember you said that a while back and I got a hose spray specifically. Christ knows what to do if it does leak! It was a git sliding it all in from the left with the brown / grey joint wetted up with solvent. Had to have the bottom bracket on the blue frame half on then sort of jiggle it all in.

A few questions: Was that marine ply you used and how thick? That fibreglass looks super smooth. First time was it? Mate just did his and it "lifted" a bit in patches. Do the long, ply gutter sections taper outward so if they fill up with ice it'll "pop" out? Ice would be my only worry in those hidden sections. I'll still probably do it myself though.

I just use CAD like the bag of a fag packet generally. I'm pretty ill disciplined when it comes to saving, naming etc. Usually works out though. I'll even print out angles to set the bevel gauge to and full size profiles to compare to sawn timber profiles I've made. I'd advise against using AutoCAD and Draftsight to work on the same drawings say via Dropbox. AutoCAD throws a hissy fit and tells you "this drawing wasn't created in AutoCAD" etc.

What happened then, wouldn't take the weight of both of you?

No reason why you couldn't tap off some heat to aid gentle fermentation! Or build in a demijohn holder...
