  1. I wonder if Ubiquiti would have something, without looking I dont know. But for the record I've just put in a couple of Wave Pro @ work to bridge a LAN to two in buildings that are on different sides of a road. Most bridge units use POE so the wired LAN is made use of for more than just comms.
  2. looks logical, the cone chimney adapter seals the flue and directs any falling soot or detritus into the fire chamber. Regards smell, I'd probably make sure you have a flue temp sensor, and make sure there's a carbon monoxide sensor in the room. My stove smells a bit if I'm burning too hot for too long.
  3. Dunno, hows your risk appetite? Check Ali express, i need to get some blinds for a triangle window. Custom size, and angled drops etc etc. They all Look very similar to ones being showcased on expensive uk websites. You do lose installer backup though if that’s important, for me I’m not bothered and take most things on at my own risk.
  4. Without knowing the correct way yet…. I’d either fix my top u channel through plasterboard to the mf5 if there is a piece in the right place, or drop a piece of ply off-cut above the plasterboard to fix my top u channel too, it would mean putting the ply onto the plasterboard as the ceiling is going up, but where there’s a will there’s a way.
  5. only bosch kit I've encountered is the bosch professional range, but that's woodworking/joinery, not groundscare/maintenance, sorry!
  6. Shame about the existing 450, I know the image isnt to scale, but my thoughts before seeing the ‘existing’ text was spin it around, get it in line with the 300 and stp, have the two outlets from the house come in on side branches, with the main through flow run straight through from the 300 to the STP. Regards the tag on the treatment plant thread, Sorry, I’m still knocking my way through the build so it isnt in use yet.
  7. Others may, or may not agree. But my honest opinion is to go for a ‘brand’ for tools to do this kind of job. Stihl, Husqvarna, Tanaka, Echo, Honda etc. This isnt borne out of snobbery, but rather all that wasted effort, and sore elbows/shoulders spent trying to start and use machines that are poorly built have crap weight distribution and whose carburettors need swapping after 2 years because they are cheap pattern parts from some low cost country. A lot of my equipment is ex council/grounds clearance company bought 2nd hand from the same shop on eBay, so can be done on budget. I’ve been bitten by the buy cheap buy twice thing. Mculloch chainsaws, Ryobi 2 stroke split shaft trimmer/brushcutter multi tool thing, cobra long reach trimmer! Hire something for the weekend, smash through it. Keep on top of it. Spray it with a selective weed killer when it shows signs of coming back ( Grazon something or other) is what I use, then mow it, and keep mowing it! Been at this game for long enough, and reading replies from others they have similar experiences too!
  8. Yep, but still expect it to be tough going, long stuff likes to tangle and snag round the head. Patience and technique.
  9. Spray it and tear through it with a small excavator, small tractor with a bucket or ride on mower is what I’d do. If I couldn’t do that then the brush cutter with blade would come out to play! Being honest, the Plastic grass trimmer isn’t the tool for this job.
  10. CT1 or adhesive and a bit of batten straddling the trim, screwed to the wall above and below, until the adhesive is set, - The batten wont touch the wall, and you will need longish screws. Fill holes and make good afterwards.
  11. You have a right to be concerned, but does it really affect you? Personally, I'd just let them get on with it. Like the fella on a motorcycle wizzing past me at 90mph plus (guess), concerned - yes, affect me - no, let em get on with it.
  12. Love it, well done.
  13. possibly yes, certainly integrated cisterns and wall hung do require a touch more labour and faff to get right.
  14. I guess it depends on the damage, repair could be just tape, or cutting a patch of membrane to cover the damage and tape up the edges. Breather membrane tape is available, cant advise of which would be best for you though.
