Whilst looking further into fixings earlier I came across two that I might have gone for https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aeFyQS2NGVM And https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fx90VadXSXA

There is just a possibility that would be going over the top a tad ;-)

Its a thought but I don't think that will be necessary Thats not so much belt and braces but rather belt, braces, corset & jock strap ;-)

Oh and they only take a small screw

There are a lot of poor reviews on them online Main things appear to be the size of hole required and that they stand proud of the wall I don't think they are something I will be using

Yes indeed, hence the post really, I just wanted to clarify what others might use or suggest I just got a link to the bracket and its a flat to wall variety, or as near as it can be given you need a space for leads etc, but its not one of those swivel variety The bracket has a 75kg load...

I hear what you say, but the tests I have seen done on the umbrella/wigwam variety I intend to use give 40kg + on the 5 x 43 and 50kg + on the 5 x 52 As that gives x 4 = 160kg or 240kg on the larger fixings, I think thats ample for a 17.5kg tv which as I understand it will be flat on the wall...

Some give them good reviews, others don't They appear to give far less of a footprint on the reverse of plasterboard than the umbrella/wigwams do

Thanks I will explore that possibility

Thanks for the additional advice I have mostly been using generic ones from kits, so far I have not had any failures of any sort thread wise (famous last words I know ;-) I only ever use hand tools to fit them, you get a much better feel when using them than a power drill/driver In this...

Thanks for that, I was obviously using different search terms this time, but recognise that video, I have watched it in the past I also watched another similar one by a chap in the USA but he was not so fastidious in his methods, ie he used power tools which I would not recommend for this type...

I searched the forum but didn't find an answer unfortunately My daughter wants a TV bracket fixing on the wall (I think its a 50" flat screen TV) They have ordered the correct bracket for the TV but am unsure whats the best type of fixings to use Where I have put up shelves, curtain poles...

Personally I would go into a branch, ask for the manager and tell him the problem, I have only ever had good dealings with Aldi and if he/she can't resolve it they should know how best to contact the right people but I suspect they will say return it and give a refund

Do you have a receipt? they have a no quibble 3 year warranty from Aldi Apart from lubrication, I can't suggest anything unless its mechanical failure, stress fracture etc The only other thought is, if something is hitting a part of the frame when at speed

And breath ;-)

a picture of said chuck may help

I would say given his fire service employment it would be worth having a word with a fire service museum, it may make a welcome addition

My suggestion would be go for a laser, I have had a Samsung mono laser for some years (just checked, I bought it in Feb 2011) which works every time, I do not print a vast amount but when I do I want the printer to work I grew sick and tired of Ink Jets, having to waste half the contents of the...

They do an assorted pack which may be a good idea for a start as you can try out different blade sizes Pegas 36 Wood Blade Selection Pack Usually pinned blades come in sixes, pinless in 12's so you can see its much cheaper as well as more versatile to use pinless

Where are you? UK or USA or elsewhere ? I assume the UK so Pegas from Axminster is what I would recommend https://www.axminster.co.uk/accessories ... saw-blades
