Ive already bought the blue but thanks. And im surprised but screwfix dont seem to do electric cuation tape. they do yellow and black hazard tape which will have to do as im not spending over £30 on a 300+m roll from electrical places haha. Good to know you fit 3 cables without a problem. How...

Thanks for the link. The 100m was out of stock so I have bought 2 of the 50m reels. Should be adequate for the runs I need. Thanks again for the info. Much appreciated. Ill give this a look thanks. The only probelm is that part of my underground path is about a 70mm gap between my garage and a...

i thought outdoor rated CAT cable would be armoured. Would you beable to reccomend a decent cat5e cable to use that will go under ground inside conduit then please. Cheaper the better but still want decent. Im looking on a website called cable monkey now and theres so many to choose from its...

thanks everyone for the replys. unfortunately i have been struck down with covid so been out of actionfor the last week. Still havent tried out my cctv to see how well it looks in the dark but will try later. Im just wondering that as I am going to run a cat5e connection into the workshop just...

Underground run probably about 4/5 meters. Total run probably no more than 15m Does it need to be outdoor rated if I put it in flexible conduit and then into a through box? I like this idea. Just checked 50m for £35 from screwfix. Should be plenty to do three runs. I may carry on the runs into...

I know this isnt woodworking but is still part of my build and I find this site really helpfull so wondered if any of you people could help. I have armoured cable running underground to my workshop (not filled in yet) and the walls and ceiling not boarded yet either. I just bought a swann...

Thanks for the reply im not sure axminster sell the at155 anymore. The one below the one I mentioned is a 1.5hp but by what your saying its pointless to go any higher lol Thanks for the reply. Alot of this dust extraction stuff goes well over my head lol. But what you are saying is that its...

I am looking at buying a cyclone dust extractor for my new workshop (5.2x3.2m). I am stuck between the following four models: Laguna c flux 1 Laguna c flux 3 Lagauna c flux 3/3 Axminster trade AT357CEH 3HP All of them have 3hp motors except for the c flux 1 which has 1.5hp. All the laguna...

Just got them soft material bosch blades of amazon. They are massive. I have read reviews thought that they can wonder on the bottom edge. One review said to angle grind one a bit shorter so it just protrudes the bottom of the 100mm board. Im not sure but thinkingI will defo use a straight edge...

just bought one from toolstation. and bought some bosch soft material jigsaw blades which are meant to be brilliant for PIR board. the surform will come in handy for sorting some doors ive got catching a little too so win win :) (y)

I have some rockwool left from the walls. If I was to cut say a 15/20cm square tile out of of the foam board and replace with rockwool for the recessed light parts woiuld this be better do you reckon or should I just follow the clearence instructions? So your reckon that scorning 30mm on each...

Hi all. I have just finished installing 100mm rockwool into my walls and am now going onto doing the 100mm celotex board inside the roof rafters? My first couple off cuts for small spaces have not gone brilliantly. Just a few questions really. * What is the best tool to use to cut it. Wasnt...

haha yea i can imagine mine will take a while too. you will have to send us a link to your thread when its done. can you write and add as many photos as you want on a comment in a thread or do you have to do mulitple comments? just got the rockwool complete and ive ended up with three packs...

Ill be doing a thread on the finished build at the end so keep an eye out. Ill try and tag you in it. Half way through insulation atm. Going good so far :) (y) Cheers, Rob

Thanks everyone for the replys. Some great advice. Ill try and post some pics after my long weekend off from work. Should be able to get it all done :) Haha i know where your coming from Martin. I did want to have them both level but I decided to raise the window a bit as that is where my new...

Im currently about to start insulating my workshop. I have all the insualtion to hand. Rockwool 100mm for the walls. Celotex 100mm for the roof and celotex 50mm for the floor. I have bought 13 packs of the rockwool for the walls with 4 100mm slabs per pack. I now realise that I probably should...

Hi Ollie. Have you got a link to this rubber flooring you boughts. Im thinking about putting it down on top of 22mm waterproof chipboard. You said you had smooth side facing up. Is it not slippy as I assume the ribbed side is there for grip purposes. Just a couple more questions? Did you secure...

I was looking at gym type mats. There were some I found that were really decent ones for garage type lay outs but they were way too expensive lol. What are your thoughts on putting lino down? Thanks for the reply. Yes I can imagine when all benhces and machinery is on top it will aint going to...

Thanks everyone for your help. I like all the ideas tbh. I think I might get the 22mm chipboard boards laid over the 50mm celotex with vapour barrier on top. Then I may get the 3mm rubber flooring people mentioned to go on top of that. Are there any good reasons to use 2x2 battens on top of the...
