I said this on page 1 but my post accidentally got deleted

Having had loft tanks leak and destroy ceilings . I always wondered why they can’t sit in a tray with a simple pipe to outside - like older toilet systems use to have the overflow from the cistern go outside .

You won’t be disappointed! . From a 3d printer virgin I took the Bambu right in my filament hole . Never looked back . Someone as experienced as you will glue your plate and print your semen everywhere

I was surprised on a domestic that fire doors don’t need closers . Seems counterintuitive too me . Open fire door isn’t much good in a fire . So my fire door has no closers as confirmed by door manufacturer and bco documents ( no good actually asking bco )

6” more like hawk tauh !

‘Cause you’re short 🤣

I had the same - it’s bizarre ! Hole in ground and I walk around it on my diy scaffolding maybe 4 metres from the bottom . Build house . Put up timber frame . 4m up from that trying to walk around and I puke my guts . It’s the same distance if I fall ! 4m . I know this . But one is around a hole in the ground other is “ up high “ . Don’t understand what my brain was doing . This is the reason I didn’t put the tiles etc on the roof . I am pussy fodder …

Hmmmmm - not sure this is a good idea …

I use netgear unmanaged poe switches . When I need more I just daisy chain another in . I use to keep poe and non poe connections seperate but that became a pita . So if I allow for potentially everything to be poe it’s not an issue . The netgear switches allow for a bigger psu if you need more juice along poe . Though with 3 switches I just place ‘high powered ‘ things on a seperate switch . Around 50 devices including 8 poe ip cameras .

Set and forget

You should never hammer - you’ll break things otherwise …

As SWMBO says to me Don’t Push too hard . Nice and easy . Slow and steady saves the day . That also works for drilling holes in tiles .

Ordering various ‘bits’ off Amazon so I can trial ‘n’ error and then return

Yeah I thought about that type of thing . I was concerned that say putting a jubilee clip around the skinny black pipe ( 6mm I think ) to a fitting and then a thick er pipe might be an issue . Skinny black pipe aka irrigation pipe not particularly strong - jubilee might split / dent it ?? .

As I find new things to avoid finishing the build Iv’e constructed an automated irrigation system . The issue I have is that black pipe to pump fitting . Tried silicone and ct1 . No matter what ; it works loose and of course water sprouts everywhere bar down the pipe . Any suggestions for something that can be water tight , outdoors and completely submerged ?

If I do that then say polyfilla around the re inserted rectangle it will look shit . A large area can look perfect if re skimmed . Of course if your poly filla skills are amazing then perhaps it would work . I was just trying to do the job to a professional level for once .

@Tom - grow a pair mate . Great big pair . No fannying around in this forum 💪💪💪💪

What a pita . The fittings are good . One issue is that the centre screw whilst installing can catch the nylon and so spins the fitting unhelpfully . One time I thought it was in ( you remove the nylon thread at this point ) and inner fitting just fell down inside the wall . 🙄 I recommend these fittings for pb - but like (expletive deleted) would I hang say a tv off them - no chance . Photo of completed work . Will update later with photo of unit on floor and pb failed 🤣 Home time now ! Oh , I am home . Home and Friday , so ????? 🤔 ……. 🍷

It’s Friday ! So doing some work !

Lots of swearing ! Not with these fixings - they seem really good for pb . But with the tiny key hole fitting on the back - doesn’t help that their fixings aren’t perfectly lined up . Anyway half done !!
