    Lets talk lawn mowers.

    My 36 inch ride on is waiting for an oil seal, so I have to use a 15 inch Mountfield push mower to do it all. Bit tedious . The biggest bit at the rear is around 1500 sq mtrs and takes a bit over 90 mins to cut. But I think it is cut closer and looks better than it did with the ride on. So I...

    This is an old thread and I haven't read it all, but in all my life, I have never seen a spanner like pic the OP posted.

    3 in 1 oil

    I've been using something very similar to this for about 25 years. I fully expect it to see me out. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Draper-21717-Force-Feed-200Ml/dp/B0001K9R44/ref=sr_1_5?crid=3S0MF327EATNS&keywords=oil+can&qid=1655114743&sprefix=oil+can%2Caps%2C171&sr=8-5

    Tricel-Novo-Sewage-Treatment-Plant

    I had a look inside last evening, happy to report no nasty odours and everything remarkably clean, at the output end anyway. I'd like more info before I go any further. There seems very little tutorial type info about them I guess they prefer to create more jobs, courses etc.

    Tricel-Novo-Sewage-Treatment-Plant

    Has anyone had any experience servicing one of these items. The council will remove the sludge. but I've heard there is an internal filter to change clean. I have two coming up for their twelve month "service" and I would prefer to do it myself, so I'll know it's done right. Well at least when...

    Car Diagnostic scanners - anybody use them?

    I had a severe case of heartburn with a BMW X3 a few years ago which finally developed a fault that no one could fix so had to be dumped. One thing I found out during that sage, was, that the gadget may show 82 faults, but if you mechanic is savvy enough to fix the right one first the rest go away.

    Glueing Tongue and Groove

    It might work, so long as they are not nailed to anything, but I have seen 119mm boards shrink 5mm each in summer. Why not plop in a piece of plywood?

    Glueing Tongue and Groove

    He did it the second time as well. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing and expecting a different result. If I was paying him £260 a day I wouldn't be happy.

    "Parts near End of Life" message

    I was down that road a number of years ago with an Epson printer. Message said it required service. I made the usual enquiries and found I could take it to a service centre 60 miles away pay the price of a new printer and then pick it up again two weeks later. I didn't much like that idea, so...

    Cutting new shed door vertical or horizontal T & G

    If it were me, I'd splash out on a few new lengths of T&G and run them vertically. Lets the rain drain off and looks better too.

    Joke Thread II

    They usually can't park any less than 3 ft from the kerb either. BTW, I had a BMW for a while, never again.

    Heating a workshop

    It's probably about 10 years since I did some research on them. I noticed recently that HM Government are pushing them so automatically assumed they're useless. :) If I get my net connection fixed soon I'll have another look.
