Brilliant job!!

I use the LAP unit from screwfix, just as a dawn to dusk. I have several of them, they have been very reliable. There are different ways of adding a normally closed relay. The sensor could be mounted on a small sealed box where the NC relay is housed. OR with a bit 'redesign' of the cable...

Unfortunately this cannot be guaranteed. Manufacturers will not use a change over relay when a make/break is all that is required. It would cost more and normally cost is critical in this type of device. These relays will normally be UL recognised because it's easier to get CE certification on...

The problem I see with that is getting the patient out of the bed first!! These look expensive, but specifically adjustable height work benches, hopefully steady. As others have suggested. I would make one, but the scissors mechanism would just be for raising and lowering with other locking to...

I would never use anything but toughened for internal glass panes. My daughter put her hand through an internal window in a door, just like the one in your picture. I was amazed just how easily it happened. She was messing about of course. I was right beside her when it happened. She had to...

Just had a look through all the posts. Really good work. I really like the dust extraction and base. Your workshop is disturbingly tidy :D

You win some you lose some!!

Welcome to the forum. Some lovely work. I really like the cake knives!

Thanks, I guess I can convert to DNG format at any time, so my RAW files are future proofed in that way. A job for a rainy year!! I did download, the latest version of the converter, but it wouldn't run under Win 7, lol I'll have a look again when I get my new machine. What you say does make...

Thanks for the good info. I have built a few PC's as well, but was back in the 90's when I worked at IBM and was able to get lots of equipment at really cheap prices. All the stuff which went through testing was sold off really cheap in the staff shop, was great. I also used to spec my own...

I don't know how you can stop these people. Dirty stupid pigs....... no, pigs are quite clean animals that insults pigs. Dirty stupid people. Councils don't make much of an effort to clean the litter up, unless you specifically report something. There should be a campaign where litter is...

Thanks!!! no, hadn't thought of that. A great idea for cycling in really cold weather, but what REALLY interests me is using the jacket in the workshop. I can't see the wattage anywhere. Would be interesting to know

I have motivation problems when it's chucking it down, blowing a gale....like today, so my mileage usually dips in the winter. I have decided it invest in some really good winter clothing, but no matter what I wear, after a few hours, the cold soaks through.

That sounds the way to go if you can, Nice climate

Road :)

Yes, we live in a really beautiful country. I do stop and take time to enjoy it, but there are some parts of central Scotland that are complete sheit holes, because of idiots that throw their litter out of their cars. I guess it's the same for all over the country. Just about every grass verge...

First part of my life, I lived in Aberdeenshire, then the second part, I lived just outside Inverness, up in the hills. It was cold in winter, toilet frozen in the morning, diesel frozen in the tractor. lol. We had the same long dark days in winter, but it was never the damp cold that we get...

That sounds very similar to my problem, but I was thrown by previous problems with the BIOS. At the moment, I'm running with only 2 memory modules and don't dare touch anything while it's still running.

I save RAW and JPG files on the camera. The JPG's are handy for general stuff, but I also save all my RAW files. I just use cut and paste to remove from the camera, then DPP for basic exposure correction (expose to the right), lens correction and cropping. I also use the collection feature for...

My son has a light box and thinks it helps, so really worth a try. I'm sure you have gone through all the other possibilities about quality of sleep and stuff like that? There could be something else causing it? Have you had blood pressure checked, blood tests, just to rule out some other...
