In a compliant French electrical installation on a TT system (common below 100Ω) the cable from the earth spike will be min 16mm to the consumer unit and then 10mm min to the water and gas and any other extraneous metal parts, but I think there are more P&O electricians in France than cowboys...

Your Ma in law was not stuck to the Gas cooker due to the earth being attached to the gas pipe, there was an electrical short to earth elsewhere that caused that.

Any new circuit being wired into your consumer unit is notifiable to Local Building Control under the Part P regulations, you need an electrician who is registered as a "competent person" Competent Persons Register | Home

Not those, it's the mitre joint I wanted, but as I said on post 39 previously I found the instructions on Amazon.

A triton router in a table is an absolute pain, every time you want to change bit the interlock on the switch comes on and you have to get on your hands and knees to unlock it, many many better router out there for a table, I ended up with a Hitachi 1/2" Router and a UJK lift, not more knee...

Started to fit the Zipbolts, and looking for instructions for the drilling dimensions, Axminster just posted them to me in a plain plastic bag, this should be easy to find I thought, the only place I can find the instructions is on Amazon, is it any wonder that most on line shops loose out to them.

adidat had it right above for horizontal loads or pulling you can't beat a Tirfor, but if its a one off operation this may do: Pull Winch

The Jessem stock guides are the bees knees. I screwed an aluminium angle onto the side of my TS250-2 fence to fit the stock guides, one of the best mods I carried out, you can just see the angle at the end of the fence crown guard removed for clarity, but if you want to see the overhead guard...

Been looking myself and come across the Swan system: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08DD7ZTL2/ref=redir_mobile_desktop? Especially like the flashing red/blue lights as a deterrent to opportunists, the reality is that you will not stop career criminal from getting into the house, they know it...

Never seen a DIY level DeWalt, as far as I know they only do one level, can you link to this DeWalt DIY level gear.

I think Porsche may argue with that premise.

I have said it before on another thread, I am reminded of the Harry Enfield comedy character "Only Me" "You don't want to do it like that, you need to do it like this"

"Never argue with an *****. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience." Mark Twain. Seems the software does not like Id**t and keeps changing the word too silly.

I have always bought DeWalt 18V for the last forty years, now on the Brushless LiIon drills, only with 2Ah batteries as the weight of anything else is too much for my old arms, the old Nimh powered drills now have an adaptor to use the Lilon, but the old brushed drills are way heavier than the...

Just to give an idea of the imposed expansion joint in my garden wall, every second joint down from the top has SS reinforcing bars resined into the stretcher joint across the crack, sorry expansion joint.

Sorry for you loss Cozzer I feel your pain. For those of you who mentioned having difficulty putting on your socks, I bought this for my OH and it really works: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Slider-Assistance-Elderly-Pregnant-Diabetics/dp/B07WLMB1SW/ref=asc_df_B07WLMB1SW/?

If you are only looking for it to last a couple of years then an ordinary oil based paint may last that long, get a garden sprayer, thin the paint and spray it on once a year, will probably last long enough.

Doubles the number of posts!

Already have our handrail supports, if you look back on the thread it was discussed at length and eventually I found some locally like the green posts and rails by the way and the ground level rot collar.

That video shows a Zipbolt by a different manufacturer which is what I am using, the polyester glue is just to waterproof the end of the rail, I know that Epoxy would be better, but I already have some pine coloured Polyester resin, thanks for the thought.
