    Digital Calipers

    Yes for sure and a previous post mentioned the pressure you apply , i just find the digital vernier is second to none for confirming if a 6mm drill bit is actually 6mm or the steel or brass rod is the diameter you expect it to be . I dont need to be super accurate but close enough to get a...

    Gas cooker

    I think a lot of these so called energy savings are little more than gimmicks that add to not only the overall cost of the appliance but to the cost of spares . Its also likely to create false call outs as most folk are used to how regular cooker ovens and would see this as a fault ..

    Many many years while doing my c/ o / guilds we were tasked with working out the consumtion of a gas refrigerator for a year . Far too long back to recall the figures but seam to recall it was less than £1 , just shows how much ghe cost of gas has risen over the last 35-40 years.

    Gas cooker

    I doubt they are atm but they probably will be at some point . But like any new technology the existing appliances will still be around years/decades from now . Interesting thread and another one of those days you learn something you didnt expect . 👍👍

    Gas cooker

    Im guessing its some sort of energy saving feature due to eu carp , im assuming its a fairly new appliance ( or new build house ) can,t imagine the saving is that great over the time it takes to cook an average roast . 👍👍 Edit - from what i can actually read of the description its A rated so...

    Gas cooker

    Gas cookers by design will shut down to BY PASS rate once the set temperature has been reached .the bypass is built into the oven stat . As the temp falls again the bellows in the thermostat open allowing more gas to flow then of course the oven burner flame increases . If the bypass was...

    Drill Driver Set?

    My vote is with millwaukee fuel , brushless . Very strong and replacement batteries are not too expensive . I try to buy when they are on offer or choose the option with two batteries . When you have a few kits you can then look at other tools in the range but buy the tool bare ( no case ...

    Prepping a soot-stained wall prior to repainting

    Thank you - i didnt comment any further as i was in part shocked at the reply and also not in any mood to start a thread argument .however I thought it strange how anyone would leave a potentially dangerous flue for the new owners to discover and even worse to mask the problem with a coat of...
