    Another Ironmongers shop closing after 87 years trading

    Old thread, but it reminds me how lucky we are to have a small hardware store in town. Yesterday i bought a pack of 5 impact driver bits for £1.26 less than ebay price.

    Shein app

    SWMBO uses shein a lot to buy modestly priced dresses with free returns if she decides she doesn't like them. I don't know how they stay in business.

    Paint removal.

    It's just the 12mm strip left where I shuttered to protect the windows. Although it is a bit more in places. I have no idea what the paint is, there's a few coats on it as you might imagine in 90 years. I tried out one of these today...

    Paint removal.

    Outside walls. The paint was falling off in some places and in others rock hard, so now it's almost all gone. There's a plaster skirt around the bottom and a band around the windows and doors, Here's a pic of how it looks now. I'll probably paint it again but I'm in no rush since it already...

    Paint removal.

    The paint on my old house was terrible, I had a couple of painters redo it a few years back, but in no time it was lifting and peeling away. So I thought , sod this I'm going to do a proper job and I've had it blasted back to the bare plaster. It already looks so much better. Question 1 is, I...

    I know it's too late now, but I would have been all over the warranty. But you don't have a warranty anymore.

    Double fail for Amazon

    Thank you. But did it ever have any force, surely a document signed under duress is void?

    Double fail for Amazon

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but you seem to be pro Magda Carta and pro identity cards. I can't quite get my head around that.

    AXMINSTER WORKSHOP 100MM DUST COLLECTION CYCLONE SEPARATOR KIT 107756

    Maybe more like a tea cup full. But I'm satisfied, it's good enough

    AXMINSTER WORKSHOP 100MM DUST COLLECTION CYCLONE SEPARATOR KIT 107756

    Here's how it is. Possibly bigger would be better, but it'll do the job for now. A 100mm inlet and a 100mm outlet doesn't leave much space.

    AXMINSTER WORKSHOP 100MM DUST COLLECTION CYCLONE SEPARATOR KIT 107756

    Things get in the way but I got around to it today. It's just tacked together with duct tape and caulk, but it is surprisingly airtight. So first I took a pic of the empty vac receptacle. Then I botched it together with tape and caulk. I took a short vid of it in action I put two...

    Double fail for Amazon
