Thanks ! Bit more than my eBay £8 purchase - but worth it ?

Hey all Bought a stud / cable / pipe finder . Seems about as reliable as me guessing . Another quality eBay purchase . Anyone got one they would swear by and can send a link ? cheers

To cheer @Onoff up ! https://kotaku.com/porn-star-comes-to-the-nintendo-switch-1832643719?_gl=1*15ux1in*_ga*YW1wLXJHR1RHRUJiUHl0QWJVcWIxQmtLUWV4QjhMSERyQVZKYTF6VlhjUFdzWV9xR3lvRGdRU0xQUG5QOXpaRnBQeGw.

I think @Onoff should resilicone it everyday . It would be good practice.

Lol ! I use to use my Hilti breaker without headphones . Made my ears ring ; use headphones now ! Real men use noisy tools and are deaf .

My dewalt impact driver is singly the best tool I have . Screws into anything ! . Don’t care about the noise . Real men have noisy toys !

I haven’t . This is kind of what I was thinking . It is in essence just normal XPS . Whom though should I approach for routing ??

Argh! can't really find anything much cheaper!

Hey all, It would seem I need this in my basement and a drainage channel around it. Seems rather expensive! so it's just to provide height (a raft) for the drain. Googled but can't find an equivalent (slotted!). Could I not just use some cheaper XPS variant??? Cheers

Yeah that’s what i’m Hoping . Just want this bloody roof done been a right pita !

Still waiting on roofer ...... ? To be fair; he was currently doing a zinc roof worth 300K! - so mine it comparably quite a small job....

Filth !

Thanks . So would it make sense to add a vertical stud in between the ‘ real’ ones / just so pipes/cables can be clipped to that . Then when plasterboarding simply ignore screwing into the extra stud . That sensible ? . I just think of all the cables and pipes with thousands of drywall screws the inevitable will happen otherwise .

Anyway ! So should pipes ( like hep 20 ) be attached to the stud or loose ? . If attached then you are next to a vertical stud so chance of a screw hitting it is greater . If loose I assume the pipe work could move and jolt when water pressure changes .

I might have some redundant windows somewhere ; let me take a look ........ ?

Can I ask a stupid question Though it’s obvious to see the ducting / pipework / cables in stud wall with one side open . How do you plasterboard the other side with certainty of not sticking a drywall screw through something ..... ???

Excuse me all ! What about my bloody amazing shower ! . Talk about off topic ?

Yep ! lets not mention filthy mouthed Captain Pugwash !

I do

Tacky ? What’s that mean ? It would look amazing - massive SWMBO points .

Oh I’m sure she charges more than that so I’ve heard .

I’m surprised at that . When I looked into icf ( some years ago ) they were adamant not to pour more than 5 or 6 levels . Guess things have changed .

Icf as far as I am aware you can only pour up to a certain height before risk of blowout increases more . This is what concerned me because I can’t get to the outside . So cost wise you might need the concrete pump twice . Also the icf insulation wasn’t thick enough so i’d Need to add PIR anyway .

I agree the fugee shape things are a joy and give great finish . Also I think less is more with mastic . When I use the structural silicone it cures in 10 minutes so I really have to move . With mastic etc. you do have time .
