Am I missing something here; seems a bit random.... IMG_8901.mp4

No mate . Big fat yellow and black tools for me !

Dewalt for me . Have the flexvolt SDS - really good for a battery drill . Dewalt angle grinder , ratchet screwdriver , reprocaiting saw etc. All excellent!

Roofer should start this week!! ?

Even I did my SUDS - real easy though a bit of back ache ?

Ordered Bosch . Some amazon reviews suspect as they mention the batteries but presumably are talking about a completely different scanner .

Taclife dms05 seems to get better ratings than the Bosch . In the final photo it has a bloke holding it on the ceiling and it says “ceiling detector “ ; f’ing clever that !

My misses thought I was up to no good when I told her I was looking for a “stud finder” ... ?

That Aldi link you gave looks VERY similar to my eBay crap . Probably get the Bosch one .

Glad you’ve arisen from your coffin . My eBay one does ‘sometimes’ indicate stud . But go past it and then go back and it’s reads nothing . Almost randomly it will say ‘centre’ - it gets really excited then ! . Problem is we’re no where near the centre . Perhaps it means centre of the earth , or centre of a stud somewhere else on the planet . Bleeding shite !

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 ........ ?
