  1. Done this on a zillion cables/ pipes in conduit. Squirt it in both ends as the man said last night.
  2. Expanding foam
  3. So … On this camera which has a ‘fly lead ‘ rj45 I could encase the connection in a blue gel box . Hasn’t failed yet I’ve got a mesh extender outside always having issues with the physical connection. If I wipe with my fingers all good again . Tried sprays and it’s in a water proof box but the atmosphere is causing problems . Only possible solution I can think of is scoop the gel out of one blue boxes and force it in the rj45 socket - then plug the cable in . If this extender had a fly lead I’m guessing there would be no issue . Any better suggestions ?
  4. I did because of ‘fear’ if I didn’t I then once skimmed used a bathroom paint I.e forms a ‘skin’ that’s moisture resistant.
  5. I was going to say ‘yes’ aswell - but waited for someone else to say it first .
  6. Chatgpt etc rubbish in , rubbish out . They are naturally filtered by what they are fed ( by intent or otherwise ) . Tiananmen square on any Chinese AI gives a questionable response . How long before Russian AI spins ‘ Russia was invaded ‘ or probably worse TrumpAI - (expletive deleted) me - imagine the garbage that will spill . Sorry , went off topic ! . I Asked ChatGPT if taking over 10 years to do a self build was slow . Its response was it is “ on the long side “ , then asked me why it took so long ! I told it where to go then !
  7. Erm , don’t know . Can check … Actually from memory the 1 stair stringer was 150kg so not Ali …?
  8. Can’t I just use a ronseal / hammerite type paint straight to metal type thing ?
  9. What all 15 steps ? 🤔🙄🤣
  10. So spray with etch primer then paint ? ( which type of paint ? )
  11. No idea . Is there a definite way to tell ?
  12. Plastic primer ? Not a steel primer then paint ?? Or do you mean plastic primer over existing ( edge ) of flaked coating , then paint the lot ?
  13. I’ve got a touch up pen for the odd chip etc but as you can see the black coating ( I assume powder coating ) is peeling off . Can I prevent this ? Fix it ?
  14. A cinema room it depends . I wouldn’t want one because our basement lounge area has 120” screen with projector and surround sound . So without being a purist we get that ‘cinema’ feeling ( no back seat naughtiness ) . A basement could be a gym / games room also . Is it worth it ? . I always think a pool occupying internal space would make a resale more difficult. Whilst a ‘room’ which could be anything appeals to more people . Sex dungeons don’t have too look intimidating.
  15. You are on fire today !
  16. Fair play . Pasties made and dead Bristolians - sounds like a win to me
  17. I foam the (expletive deleted) out of everything . I bought a large box of rubber disposable gloves ( ok , I had them already as they have other uses ) . I always buy a foam that needs a gun . I buy the cheap guns off eBay for like a fiver each . Never bother cleaning them . Sometimes they last quite a few cans before they clog; then I bin them . Just to piss @SteamyTea off ; all the cut of waste once cured I stick in the bin and off it goes to Cornwall .
  18. Therefore @Indy get those not allowables ‘free’ with the kitchen …
  19. I thought for example an oven isn’t eligible because it can be literally plug in and take away . Also I thought hobs weren’t but extractors were ( sometime ago so may have that wrong )
  20. Oh ! Not heard of that ! What defines ‘fitted ‘ ?????
  21. Well I guess that’s good . Lots of my adversities have died ( not guilty my lord ) , so they can never apologise . I tend to not forget or forgive …
