    Overboarding a landing

    Am I missing something here? If your preference is a hardwood landing just remove existing floorboards and fit engineered (or solid) flooring on top of the joists and then you will be able to stick with the current stair risers with no change. You will still need a doorway solution to...

    jigsaws

    I have the corded Mafell which replaced a very old Bosch, it is absolutely superb, the lack of the guide wheel is a really good design. I also watched an interesting skill builder video where they explained that our continental cousins use the jigsaw from below the workpiece, seemed weird but I...

    If only you were right. Where I am in Wiltshire the nearest three phase supply is two km away. The wonderful people at SSEN decided many years ago that they could save money by only running two cables on the poles and having what they call “split phase” transformers on the poles, this means that...

    Air source Heat Pumps any good?

    Re - “listing is generally about outside appearance” I wish that was the case. My listed buildings officer will not allow any insulation to be fitted to the inside of the walls as it “hides and damages the historic fabric” this historic fabric has been hidden to the world for 250 years but she...

    Rail track hinge mechanism!!

    Peter, I'd seen the Dashboard ones which looked like just the job, and whilst $240 is less than buying a "Full Fat" Festol MFT, it still seems s steep price for a fairly simple aluminium bracket (and I think you still need to buy the rails separately and with their design fit two single T tracks...
