Well thanks for all the replies chaps, much appreciated. It looks as though the answer is going to be to purchase some MDF and make myself a door and get the router out again. Anyone know if I can get a router bit that has a flat bottom with angled sides?

Hello folks, I am in the process of replacing all of the doors around my home. There are two doors that will require some additional work on them. One of the doors is only about 3/4's of the normal door height and the other is where the top of the door is very angled. I have (hopefully)...

Great post ey_tony👍👍👍

This is the first (and last) time that I will be using it to break concrete, it has always been used purely for drilling holes up until now. I will definitely put some grease in it though. If the drill does give in, I've still got an original Rawlplug chisel and lump hammer in my workshop🤣...

Thank you for your input chaps, much appreciated. I did have the thought in my mind that it was grease as opposed to oil and that it was the heating up of the drill that was causing it to become runny. No I have never added any grease at any time during the life of the drill (slapped wrist!)...

I have a Bosch PBH 2000 SDS Drill that is a really useful bit of kit. I have been using it with the chisel to break up a load of concrete in order to bury a waste pipe in the bathroom. I am getting towards the end of the work but unfortunately the drill seems to be discharging what looks like...

I use this system and it is absolutely brilliant. However, I have just been advised that my £1.99 monthly subscription will shortly increase to £2.99 but this is still very worthwhile for me.

Agree entirely, I don't watch the programme anymore. Presented by another grossly overpaid ex-footballer! Also, I think that football should be removed from it as there are too few sports(persons) involved, generally speaking they are mostly disrespectful, arrogant, cheating, overpaid morons.

It was purchased as an external clock and it has lasted for a reasonable amount of time really. The original face is a sort of paper I think and, it does have glass in front of it. I realised that it was sun damage and so I do propose to hang it in a different place once repaired.

I have a clock that hangs outside and the face has given up the ghost. I have purchased a new face and it is made of a thickish paper and, I am wondering what the best glue will be to fix it in place. I have (hopefully) included a photo of the worn out/damaged face so that you can see what I am...

Thank you chaps for all of your replies, very much appreciated. I will investigate all of the suggestions. Thanks again.

My neighbour absolutely loves his garden (so do we) but, his garden is just a natural wild jungle. His front and back gardens are the same, in fact you can hardly see his bungalow from the pavement as the growth is so high. All of his hedges, weeds, brambles and suchlike all force their way...

Looking highly likely that we are going to lose that silver, will be interesting to see the final outcome of the investigation into C J Ujah.

Get yourself fixed up with a test drive in a Toyota or better still a Lexus. Prepare to be amazed!!

The first part of Ollie78's suggestion at #5 is your best best without a doubt. It's pretty much the way I would do it.

Thank you pe2dave, yes a quiet little titter is perfectly in order. I feel so stupid really. What happened was that I took the saw out of the transit packing and unclipped he carry-case clips and didn't look at what turned out to be a cable clip, I was just feeling it and couldn't make out...

Thank you for the tips Filament. I've got a pretty good vac for my dust etc and am pretty careful in that regard. Great idea with the pine table top.

Ha Ha I do believe that you are right PerryGunn, closer inspection does reveal that it is a cable tie. Thank you so much. I've said it before but I'll have to say it again...................................it's definitely an age thing :p

Please don't laugh will you :mad: My Makita turned up today and I can't wait to have a look at it, problem is I can't open the B*@5## carry case!! I have undone the catches but there seems to be a little black bit of plastic in the front right hand corner which I have moved in every direction...
