Glue-up underway - corners first - best efforts to ensure it turns out square! Darkness was approaching so I pressed on to beat the twilight and didn't have opportunity for any more photos, and forgot to snap the clamped up frame... Success! It's flat, and it's square, and it appears to...

Routing out the rebates achieved with a flush cut trim bit. Managed to set the router depth accurately enough to just remove the waste from the inside layer of timber :) Just a few places that needed to be cleaned up manually with a sharp chisel Instead of rebates, the centre horizontal...

The six "spars"/"legs" of the window laid out showing how they fit together - I've basically contrived to fudge up half-lap joints without cutting any half-lap joints... The protruding legs around the outside were deliberate - I'll flush them off at a later stage - I just didn't want any...

Really? Maybe go back and read about the "anyone with half a brain could do" jobs that he was denigrating.

When you say dizens of journalists were slagging Tory, you do understand that they weren't making stuff up, and were simply reporting the actual corruption and inappropriate, often unlawful behaviours, right? And you do understand that Oakshitte isn't representing the truth, right?

Ah yes, the fake news media is getting things wrong. Why change a habit?

Believing that which can be substantiated, and what is by far the most likely truth, is not absurd. Believing tin foil hat theories, which are deliberately constructed in make believe and circumstantial handwavium, none of which cannot be substantiated is what's absurd. No amount of personal...

You clearly missed the point before getting on your soapbox to air your personal agenda, in a huge diatribe, flaws and all. When I asked about the source of the tickets, it was to continue the discussion on the "Taylor Swift gave Starmer tickets and in return Starmer sorted out a blue light...

Two possible viewpoints exist. First viewpoint is backed up by factual evidence. Either of these two parts is sufficient in isolation: - the independence of the Police to make Operational Decisions is sacrosanct and enshrined in legislation. (Bearing in mind a proven bully had tried to coerce...

Was it Taylor Swift, or an organisation that has anything to do with Taylor Swift, that gifted the tickets? Lol

The most difficult for me and my Mrs was Zach the Staffy, because I was deployed to Afghanistan at the time, so Mrs had to deal with the logistics on her own, and the emotions that came with it, without support, while I didn't get to say goodbye :cry:

I feel for you, mate, and it can be an overwhelming emotional experience. And I agree that those without pets might not be in a position to be able to understand it. I think this is partly to do with the way that dogs, in particular, give you all of their love and attach zero conditions to their...

My understanding on this is because it's carrying AC current - it's acts kind of like an electromagnet (although without an iron core), and induces it's own reactive current every time the current reverses - hence "inductive reactance".

This is a totally straw man argument. Yes, police officers get "selected" into top jobs, by the govt dept that is responible for Policing. But it is a total stretch and a completely unfounded fabrication to say that they are only selected because they are "yes men/women" or only because they...

What if I told you that the entire endeavour was begun by previous Tory govt? What if I told you that Jenrick had a prime role in drafting the deal? What if I told you that the USA were involved in the decisions and were in firm agreement to hand the islands back, and in particular this is...

Your opinion is unfounded. Nothing of what you say counters the very real fact that the Home Office have no power over Operational Policing. In fact the evidence contradicts your opinion many times over. Operational Policing decisions cannot be directly influenced by the Govt. That's all there...

Eek! Careful - it's over 300 years already - and that time has done little to diminish the raw emotion that these provoke... This is from a very, very long and epic list of stupid things that the Tories did, but I agree 100% :cry:

LOL, I hadn't heard that one before, probably the same as "trust me" or "honestly"... (although it might be also be true to say that distrusting someone who uses "fact" would indicate more about the reader than the writer?) Anyway, back to the topic: Honestly, you gotta trust me on this - Home...

It's a sea-diving bird having just pierced into water for fish. Those black areas are low pressure water swirls of eddy current, and the grain around the bird's head is the cavitation and boundary layer, surface friction effect. (I know a thing or 2 about fluid dynamics and aerodynamics and...

Agreed that I don't agree that reducing worker rights is good - I only mentioned it because it was an example that you mentioned that the Tories had done, implying it was a positive thing, that is possibly going to be retrograded under Tory in future... The vast majority of financial...
