  1. With the plastic sleeve they don’t . But instructions suggest you don’t need that . I thought the sleeve was just to protect bolt thread getting stuff on them .
  2. Before I commit Are the bolts meant to wobble ??? IMG_2980.MOV
  3. Now that’s a good plan !
  4. Yeah no geberit pan to wall gasket supplied . I saw that in a video and asked geberit . They said only really needed for pan against glass tiles not ceramic . Will take off the wall ct1 the back then reset . Clean up , then leave until Monday
  5. Too slow everyone ! I sat on it and lifted my feet off the floor . It does ‘move’ a bit is this normal ?? . I might be able to get tighter to the wall ...
  6. @Onoff or any ‘ wall hangers ‘ this safe to weight test in this state ???
  7. Both tests successful! zero leaks . I stuck a bit of tissue in it . Set my camera to video hanging over the edge of the manhole . Flushed it . How sad eh ? . Where else would the (expletive deleted)ing water go ? All good ! . Would like to weight test it for my peace of mind but will wait until other ‘wall hangers’ say it’s ok .... too scared !!
  8. Fighting wc . It’s on dry ( no silicone ) If I grab the front though it ‘moves’ up a fraction . The only wall fixings are those 2 high bolts so nothing to stop the bottom lifting - this correct ? Going to tip water down the pan as test 1 Then flush it for test 2 In theory ( as I’m less than confident ) I should be able to sit on this now ? Take my feet off the floor and it takes my weight ?? ( the ultimate test !! )

    Ah bum !

    Yes . it’s not perfect Photo from door way Photo half way in bathroom Photo close up The ‘edge’ of the old paint shows up . I can live with that . I think the sprayers pretty good !
  11. I bet @PeterW offered to visit you with a baseball bat . To fix the heating of course .....
  12. Shhhhhhh again !
  13. Absolutely.
  14. I want to post something useful but I can’t . I want zoots heating to be fixed , but I can’t . Farewell cruel world ?
  15. Yeah but that’s almost impossible. To line up a outlet pipe with a unit with a trap all mm inline . (expletive deleted) that !
  16. Maybe . But allowing 1mm clearance for a compact bottle trap is a bit tight . Out of interest I went and looked at the bathroom vanity unit I’ve yet to install - think there will be much more space .
  17. Trim peeled off before I left for the day . Just a few mm ffs !!! When they design these cabinets I guess they really don’t think about getting the trap and pipework in - bloody idiots !!
  18. Nah . Another 135 and they are too far out of alignment. I’m ‘bending’ the 40mm outlet pipe to the max as it is .
  19. Tempted to cut the corner off the cabinet
  20. You b a s t a r d !! Fitting just catches the drawer - can’t angle it any further . Bottle trip clears by 1 mm ?
  21. Think I’ve solved it . Was far fiddler than I thought . Nothing glued yet !! Compact bottle trap - and some very tight fittings ....
  22. No is the answer ?
  23. https://www.toolstation.com/mcalpine-flexi-waste-connector/p45626?store=GQ&utm_source=googleshopping&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=googleshoppingfeed&gclid=CjwKCAiAxp-ABhALEiwAXm6IySqBkHUcNdMGSpL3R_88mLQj11QU1BJ8z4mxzHRTbVtzne3U3yGxwRoCiGwQAvD_BwE Can the smooth non compression end be solvent welded ???
  24. Yeah - don’t count your chickens yet ! I was trying to do it all compression so it’s easy to change / fix later ... Will get parts tomorrow and we will see . Got to laugh at the amateurs - rip the wall apart / hack the cabinet - (expletive deleted)ing bodgers ! ? www.forum.buildbodge.org.uk
  25. Thinking ( not on site ) If I put a solvent weld reducer in then a 90 degree tee . Length of vertical pipe - another 90 degree tee welded on the top . Would allow the trap to be higher and avoid the drawer . It might fit ....
