Ok ; so what would an electrician recommend for running mains cable in the loft space of a timber frame ?

Ah ! Even if just cat 5 cables ?

Thank you ! Hmm - I suppose it could work . But I’m going to add cable as I go - don’t really want them sagging . Could just use slim lengths of osb as trays with timber either side to stop cables falling out . If that’s satisfactory m’lord ?!

Yes my badness . I’ll blame the lack of manners on my man flu . thank you oh humble one ; much appreciated. May your armpits be infested with the fleas from a thousand camels ( Jeff Minter I think )

Nice . Post a link to screwyfix or something with banding ...

These seem rather expensive for what they are . But using say ducting without the ‘lid’ seems equally not particularly cheap . Whilst I could use trays in the loft of my timber frame what do I use to ‘hang’ underneath from beam and block ?

Ahhhhh . I see ! So how large is the mixer box ? . As I assume access is needed to it can it be any distance from the shower ? Can I place the mixer box say in my underground dungeon and run the mixed feed (hep2o?) to a bathroom upstairs??

Sorry i’m Confused ?. Single pipe to outlet ????

The infamous 555 timer ! Crumbs that’s been around a bit !

Ah the LED’s ! I knew there was a plus side ! . Save my pennies then !

Ok - so , as suspected not worth the money . No one on here got one though ??

I’m struggling to see what makes these worth the extra cost . Ok , it can warm up ; temperature is stable to within a degree ; I can set it on my phone ( even I’m struggling to see why i’d Do that ) Anyone got one ???

I have my ( limited ) uses !!! ?

Yes . You can buy dyes . My favourite is the blood red one . I used far less water and it was bright - looked like a massacre- so good “visibility “ . Haven’t tried the luminous green one yet ! From eBay I recall water trace dye

You summoned me !

Crumbs ! I need to see that photo also ! . Was that the one with the cow and cucumber??

Your misses ?

Yeah I noticed that and thought “eek!” . But as I know there could be method to the madness

In my experience most “builders” when they appear to be ripping you off or lieing do respond to being stood upto . I use the exact language that I can’t use with a tenant who is confrontational. It’s very therapeutic to release all that frustration and anger . You also effectively drawing a line in the sand . Then it becomes shut up or put up . I know confronting people and potentially the risk of that becoming physical isn’t appealing , no one wants that . But it’s YOUR build , YOUR money - take control ; whether you are wrong or right . Alter the course of the builds destiny relies solely on you making it happen . ??

See our Kev’s fecked up . Liquidation ?

One thing i’ve Noticed when I screw these guys together sometimes you can’t get them lined up I.e you can’t tighten it any further so have to loosen it to get alignment. I presume some plumbers tape on the thread beforehand is the answer ? Equally the brass end cap has no rubber washer or anything. Tape again ???

I reckon this thread could beat @Onoff ‘s for the longest eventually . @zoothorn stay frosty ! ?

Oi ! If they started filming grand design on the start of your bathroom it would of been in black and white !

Everyone suggests to me I should of gone on grand design . Can you imagine . Firstly you don’t get paid . Secondly kevin CockCloud saying “ but will it leak “ , “ when will it be finished “ etc. Etc. Just before every commercial break - would hiss me off massively.

Yes ; I was the same ! At school I was known as the boy with the big cock - we used to live on a farm ...
