I guess it’s like timber frame houses . its only relatively recently done here ; most of us do it that way . But in the US Florida , practically every build has been done like that for decades . @Big Neil If my retarded efforts haven’t put you off then the system must be fu*king brilliant !

Ok So first sheet of osb to go up !

Lol No idea . The only reason i’m Using it is I’m in a basement with damp - so don’t fancy timber . I think if skilled ? , it would be quicker . Also you know a length is straight unlike timber .

Well I’ve either become skilled or I’m making a pigs ear of this . 300mm is not required ; but i’ll Use it on this wall as there is no base track . Only has to hold osb .

Hmmmmmmmm This right ? Almost straight .... Not sure about this .....

I think it’s meant to be cheaper . i got 10 3.4m lengths of vertical for about £36 . I just used the nearest builders merchants as I need this done now .

Right ! i see a problem , these glypliner brackets aren’t meant to be used with this stud I don’t think . Let me twist the vertical to face - this must be wrong as otherwise the utility holes are pointless . photo of it wrong ?

Not sure I like this system. But then that’s probably more because it’s new too me . Theres no horizontal base track because ufh and screed needs to be done . Only doing this wall without track just so Uvc and ufh manifold have somewhere to go . So a bit experimental .

Not really . I ordered some of those plastic grommets - see how I get on with them

I’m doing 300 centres because i’m Scared ?

You in trouble???

@Onoff can you finish the bloody bathroom first ? ?

Feel happier with these https://www.readyfixuk.co.uk/products/cable-and-pipe-support-systems/cable-and-pipe-fixings/caddy-and-furze-fixings/general-caddy-and-furze-fixings/esg1-easy-snap-grommet-188470

Yeah the steel I have does have pre cut holes presumably for cables . The edges do seem relatively sharp . Would prefer a rubber edge in there

Yeah I was worried about cables ‘moving’ / wearing against the steel

Yep But he’s doing a partition .

Easier to buy some of these ? https://www.buildingmaterials.co.uk/gl2-gyplyner-metal-stud-fixing-bracket-75mm-leg-1-box-100-pieces?ps=Mjk4PTEwOTk=&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI8IXv1PaE4gIVrbvtCh1bmw0bEAQYASABEgL9KfD_BwE#298=1099 I can fix through my membrane- you have special plastic raw plugs with rubber caps to make a water proof hole . Any screw goes inside the plug .

I’ll experiment with what you’ve suggest ! Got to run now ! Literally , Bristol 10k ?

How do I fit to the wall a vertical every 600 ?

Ok , I’ve watched all the videos - seems easy but they usually show partitions . I’m using a system that doesn’t fix to the wall so you have a top and bottom U track . You can slide the vertical steel stud in and screw the top and bottom . But you can only do that from one side ( other side is against the wall ) . Does this matter ? . Be happier a screw each side . This doesn’t seem mentioned in any videos so i’m Guessing it’s not an issue ....

Double sorted !

Yeah done that

Hey humans ! I’m fairly certain we will be going with IQglass - they answer all my stupid questions - so respect to them ! Anyone been to their showroom ? Might make a day/night of it so recommendations on where to stay and eat appreciated!! RK for the front door though ( swoon ! Finger print , electro lock , pivot etc. Etc. ) cheers all !
