  1. Almost enough for an extra cream tea .
  2. Get pv . Get a battery . Stop moaning . Bleeding Cornish , all the same .
  3. Don’t give a (expletive deleted)
  4. They work on girls but not plasterboard
  5. Little bit late for that . Basement is living space - so not really feasible anyway .
  6. Yeah - it needs packing out . Which idiot can’t build a straight wall anyway 🙄
  7. It’s an invention that needs to be done . Would a *super* sensitive thermal camera be able to differentiate between say a sheet of osb with / without timber baton ? . There must be some minuscule temperature difference.
  8. I meant clear ct1 just to make a water tight seal . Plastic beading over the top of that edge to hide it all .
  9. Yeah -10 to 50 is its “ operating range “ . We’ve certainly not been down to -10 .
  10. Yeah I did wonder that . It’s happened every day In December ( so far ) bar 2 nights . Just bugs me to ‘lose’ 2kwh of off peak storage and so end up grabbing it at peak rate . 7.5p off peak to 41p peak . Physco thing I think also .
  11. I’d fill it with clear ct1 . Once that’s gone off silicone some plastic bead on it .
  12. I’d love one for Christmas
  13. A PowerWall I believe has a heating / cooling system built in . My SE battery is outside and it would seem when sub zero it simply won’t charge to 100% - nearer to 75% I could build a ‘shed’ type affair over it but not convinced that will keep it warmer . Maybe a ‘cover ‘ made of osb lined with PIR ? Any other suggestions ?
  14. Ordinary Standard Builder ?
  15. No ! I tried all of them - complete shite . Did a thread on it ; can’t be bothered to link edit : Used the (expletive deleted)ing search function
  16. Yeah @Onoff in one , SWMBO in the other
  17. You can get a new ring . I always worry it won’t be the exact size . So I buy a new fitting entirely as to be certain .
  18. I can beat that ! My in the ground soil pipe 110mm was filling up with 💩. So I rodded it to the next access chamber . What came out was a round head disc used on a rodding fixing !!!
  19. Sure . I *assumed* it was visible . Still want to zip tie it though . If it’s a long pipe and gets pushed out the waste pipe it’s going to be messy .
  20. Could just loop the excess pipe behind washer and zip tie again . Then it’s not cut nor visible . Depends on bravery skills 😁
  21. I think the problem is the WM waste pipe is too long . Even fully inserted in the waste pipe @zoothorn will have a big loop of waste pipe hanging out . It probably won’t make much difference tbh I.e washer will still pump it out ; but looks crap .
  22. Yeah - you can’t tell if it’s blocked . Stick mr muscle down there ; wait 30 minutes and see . Worst case no difference and you’ve wasted 5 quid or so . Much easier ( if it is blocked ) than coat hangers etc. and faffing around .
  23. Big loop is bad . Also once cut if you ever need to extend the waste pipe again you can get couplers etc. to do that . How long is the white wall pipe the WM waste is going into ?
  24. If blocked try a ‘ mr muscle ‘ type drain cleaner product . They produce a foam in the pipe and eat through any organic stuff . In my rentals ; shower gel / soap seem to be a common sink / shower blocker .
  25. I’d cut it ( but not too short ) then zip tie it or similar around the pipe and back to the machine - so it’s got no chance of coming out .
