    Papparazi media harassment

    Never seen an episode of love island but know several people who have watched it religiously. The death that made me think, was of Mike Thalassitis or as the media liked to call him "Muggy Mike" As soon as he took his own life the media started calling him by his proper name. They created a...

    If you could only have 1 hacksaw blade

    I've had several hacksaws some new and others gifted. Best one to date is an old "ding dong" with a wooden handle. It came from the tip and the only reason for buying it was the humorous name. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

    Set of circular segmented steps - FINISHED!

    My bad for saying this but come on ! The top tread invites you down to the lovely riser, followed by the next lovely curved tread. The next riser sticks out ! My eye compares it to the top couple which is spot on on point ! Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

    TV licence requirements

    I've thoroughly enjoyed reading everyone's thoughts on this. I'd more than happily pay £75 a year to listen to the radio without adverts. I can live without the bbc tv content. I record pretty much everything unless I'm looking for something to pass the time. Adverts are more or less 4 minutes...

    Set of circular segmented steps - FINISHED!

    Had to view this on a browser because last picture wasn't showing on Tapatalk. The treads with the contrasting banding look nothing short of stunning and then some !!!!!! Whats the plan with the riser that's sticking out ? Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

    A sharp well tensioned one. I think that's more important than a specific brand. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

    Anyone else wondering what it's for? Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

    Drilling a 120mm dia hole ...

    It would depend on how accurate the hole needed to be, does it need to be super smooth with a flat bottom? Have you got loads to do or is it just the one hole? Repeating what's been previously mentioned a 120mm hole saw then removing the innards with auger bits and a chisel is a slow but...

    Recycling box covers ?

    Its getting a bit bonkers isn't it. I've got no issue with sorting and storing the stuff for recycling, it's the crap they give you do the task that ruffles my feathers. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

    Recycling box covers ?

    Seeing all the plastic and card board blowing around this morning I've finally decided enough is enough. The supplied lids are pathetic and dont clip on. I've seen elasticated nets that go around the top for around £5 each but am wondering if theres another option I'm overlooking. If the council...

    Stair advice, please.

    Thats how I was taught, just the method of removing the bulk of the wood has changed over the years. With bullnose MDF treads and risers I use a similar method of stretching it tight. The easiest way to ruin it is by not cutting out the curved block of wood accurately. The face has to be 90...

    Yes but very limited with what I offer. The most popular one recently is this one. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

    Stair advice, please.

    Personally I wouldn't bother kerfing it. The easiest way to remove the wood to create your thick veneer that wraps around the curve, is by using a router. Find the widest flute bit you have and plunge it your 17.5mm ish depth (based on 20mm thick riser) the first cut you can do in several...

    Stair advice, please.

    Ideal ! Might seem obvious, but other than ease of setup theres no reason the tenon has to be in the centre of the string. For instance you could have 2mm shoulder, 19mm tenon and the remainder 9mm shoulder (based on 30mm thick string) Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk
