If you are more precise someone here might be able to help. Machine or wood Length Cheese head, countersunk or what? Quantity Nuts?

I agree. Suggest he chooses the wall paint for his room, applying that and then altering it in a few years time would be a doddle compared to refinishing the bed frame.

Politicians the world over are always making pronouncements like this, but they don't have a track record of seeing them through to reality.

Your house insurance should cover this.

Well, Macron was rather rude to Mrs May last week.

There is an interesting article in the times quoting a French historian who is a expert on the cathedral and he is damning French bureaucracy for doing the renovations on the cheap. We moan about health and safety, but hot works procedures work, trouble is until you get a fire no one...

Pm me and I will send you my address . Then we can sort a day and time.

Old wood planes make excellent scrub planes. I have a few that need a bit of work but would do the job You can have one if you collect it. If you have your heart set on modifying that silver line I have bench grinders too. Am 30 - 40 minutes away depending on where you are in Derby.
