That a euphemism??

I’ll get the vertical pole in place . Then make a cardboard scale model of what I thick the bracket should be .

Maybe ? https://fractory.com/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIrOiziOGL6wIVGO7tCh0NmgN3EAAYASAAEgIQ0PD_BwE

I’ll look online there’s bound to be “ online fabrication service “ ....

Couldn’t I just use my method and each short horizontal is above the other ? I.e 2 clamps on the vertical. Trying to sort an off the shelf solution ...

@joe90 What about clamping with a U bracket a short scaff pole on the outside of the wall ( on both sides ) and then just a horizontal short piece clamped to the main vertical with scaff fixings? Crap picture - for no clarity

Looking at cargo slings on eBay now. Not ordered yet as best to build something; so I have some idea. So ( for now! ) will use a wooden pallet as platform. 2 slings I assume ; 1 each side; going under pallet ( some timber or something to stop them slipping ) Up into spreader ( still not sure what to use here - perhaps simple timber is ok? ) then to hook.

Ummm, I guess so ( he says ). Essentially it is better because as you say bolt can pull out the wall with a U clamp. With this method it's directly in the wall vertically. All I need then in reality is maybe a nice meaty right angle bracket that I can cut/drill to suit.

The only issue I've got is the length to weight ratio that the counter weight scaff pole needs to be . i..e I've got limited room for it ( drain in the way ) so will need to be shorter - but obviously can stick more weight on it to compensate . Struggling to find parapet clamps at a sensible price....

RIGHT! That's it. Only way to move this forward is to actually purchase something! So winch and scaff pole gantry from eBay ordered . Going with @joe90 suggestion. So if I suffer injury he's liable

So I can simply over paint it with the appropriate paint? . Do I need to prep the surface?

Ouch ! . Mines only 1 year old ! . Just repaint then with the appropriate silicon breathable paint ??

Should it lose its colour so quick though ? Always thought k rend should last for years - not 1 year . That wall is on a sheltered side aswell .... ?

My exterior was K rendered about a year ago . I’ve noticed a few scuffs and assumed it’s where I’ve hit the wall . I no longer think this . Not sure it shows up in the photos . Obviously I could re paint at a later date just surprised how soon it seems to be losing its colour

Cut a new board . Think I would have access to everything

Ultimately I’m guessing some coping stones on top - but I’ll worry about that later . Please give me an example of a ‘saddle’ . Still need counter weight etc ??

Bit tight with the 135 ‘s but I’m guessing we’re all happier with that arrangement?

Floor to top of wall 2.6m wall depth 24cm height of load let’s say 2m Wall is concrete ‘lego’ blocks . Reinforcing rods added ; top was shuttered to make a solid concrete ‘cap ‘ then pumped in concrete all in 1 go . The wall’s not going anywhere !

Ahhhhhhhhhhh not my ridiculous walk on glazing buyer then !

Dimensions of my what ? ? its fecking big !

Tbh that’s not such a bad suggestion ! Or a corpse ....

Could do . But I’ll do it properly so everyone thinks I’m skilled !!

Fair enough . My plates quite wide ( see photo ) . Though if you think it’s pants - I’ll recut the holes - probably make a template first . I only did it as a ‘crude’ rectangle because the destructions said so .

Yep . Just read it throughly - takes standard Scaf poles to provide horizontal arms - then bags of sand I recon to counter weight it ( unless anyone can think of a cheaper alternative) Also , if I need to resell when done will be easier - though something like this I think I would keep .... for parties

Ah ! Was going to use ct1 - will make a mental note not to . 6 months later I’ll forget and stick it on with ct1 . 2 years later when I need to remove the plate you can link to this thread .
