https://mactimbers.com/ Always a lovely day but as yet this year I've not been able to attend. Once again things have gone pear shaped as I'm having wisdom tooth extraction the day before. Cheers Andy

So, just thinking about this, I suppose once I have the size and shape some type of sheet material cultist generator may be usable but I've just realised will that not jumble up the blocks into any convenient position.... ? I'm needing to move stuff around on screen. Cheers, Andy

Thanks for your replies, very enlightening. I'm currently helping to mark out the field for our Ashby Magna Vintage Rally this weekend and would love to see things made easier by hopefully (in the future) having the option to digitally fit everything into this area. So as you can see accuracy...

Odd one here, how do you accurately measure and draw a field in this day and age? This one in particular https://maps.app.goo.gl/awsShd8s4xfNgx2n6 Cheers, Andy

Is it safe nowadays to cut into golf balls? I did this as a youngster and nearly got blinded from what can be best remembered/described as an explosion of liquid and matter. Cheers, Andy

Lovely offer, let's see if we can get @Shubs to know were talking about them....... Cheers, Andy

I'd be more inclined to say it's a butt gauge for hinges. Cheers, Andy

@TFrench ought in your outray? Cheers, Andy

Is it a multipoint locking system? May be the bottom section into the cill has jumped off the rest. Other thing to consider is that the doors were hung too low. Cheers, Andy

It's a good tip to keep the woodwork narrower than the cleat thus giving a buttress for it to rest against. Also below the cleat I drill down into the end grain with a long drill of suitable clearance to push the cord tail down into, this stops it accidentally getting jammed between sash and...

These are the ones I use. Repeatedly getting the cord through is easier if you bind the end with a strip of gaffer tape. https://www.reddiseals.com/product/sash-cord-cleat/ Cheers, Andy

We do, they're called suppliers and they no longer carry out the required quality control as we are forced to provide them, at our inconvenience, with that service for free..... Andy

Unfortunately I have no reference for the date.

Update Just in case you were still wondering..... It's a French slaughtering axe. Cheers, Andy

I reckon it could be water getting in and getting trapped behind the varnish resulting in the first stages of rot. Cheers, Andy

A 12 mm hole in the side of 12 mm pipe ? Sounds like a job for a 12 mm end mill in an engineering quality boring machine, then you can attach the arms with a suitable solder/brazing. Or as suggested above, side mill the ends of the tube with the appropriate 12 mm cutter then once again...

I think I'd loose the slabs and get it gravelled for starters. Cheers, Andy

Just made me laugh remembering the time an apprentice sparky was using an SDS chisel to chop in a back box on a strammit wall... Luckily he did manage it but shouldn't have used the 2 inch screws..... Cheers, Andy

If I remember rightly there is one each side inside the cupboard and all the weight is pulling down and away from the brackets you show. So with this in mind the screws are only ever been drawn sideways and thus further embedding the thread into the chipboard. To a certain extent it's similar in...
