20,0000 towel rails! :lol:

It has got to be a difference in the primer to the top coat. The primer would be a nitrocellulose base and I don't know the Rustoleum paint but would think it is not of the same base. (probably oil based) Cracking and crazing occurs when the substrate is not hard enough which can happen with...

Yep, big place Shenzhen. I spent a week there during Chinese New Year, in fact it was my first time in China and i thought there was a Military coup going on when the fire crackers started! those things are loud! Watch out for the families of 5 on a scooter too hilarious! :lol:

The airport is something else. I spent a full evening there when one of my flights was delayed due to a hurricane. Nice replica of Kittyhawk hung in the rafters too. The train from the airport into Kowloon is very nice and fast. Where are you going to in mainland China? Guangzhou by any chance...

We did have a mouse infestation a few years ago in our home, I did cure it by using poison in the end as we used the traps and couldn't keep up with them. I baited mine with chocolate spread they seemed to like that. A work mate of mine didn't like to kill them so used to use the humane traps...

Well I am certainly having a good go at it. They say practice makes perfect. :lol: I should have got it by the time I retire. :lol:

As I say I don't know much about them but know that two of the best seem to be Fuji and Apollo if you try an internet search. Try posting the question on the finishing section about them and I am sure you will get your answers as I know there a few people on here that use them. HTH. :wink:

Yes Giggs those small compressors just aren't man enough to handle a spray gun especially a HVLP one. Have you considered a a turbine one? I have not used one but many of the guys on here have and they rate them well. I delivered the small chest of drawers today and got some pics of the units...

Well Griggs, I have a 3HP SIP compressor with a 200 ltr tank on it and use some cheap Bergman HVLP guns.

Thanks guys. It is assembled with Dominos Mark. The finish is a 40% sheen Morrells 2K and it was sprayed. Well Graham, i like the contrast between the white and the wood with drawers.

Exactly! My best friend applied to renew his licence and when it returned his motorcycle and HGV entitlement had disappeared! He also had to retake his bike test after riding for over thirty years! :roll: he couldn't afford to re take his HGV again so he has lost that one. As for the motorcycle...

No problem Hugh that's what the forum is for and they way we increase our knowledge. Mark is spot on with all he has stated. I do prefer to let in the diagonals for looks and to stop any slippage of the diagonal. The T&G boards are 16mm and I have slotted the rails to allow for any movement...

Got these finished today and will deliver them next week.

Thanks guys. yes Hugh here's the back of it.

I am in the process of making a small set of drawers for a customer. I have already made and fitted a large cabinet, small wardrobe and desk and now the set of drawers to fit under the desk.

I got another fill in job yesterday for a gate. I must be getting good at these as this one only took me an afternoon to complete. :D I shall be fitting it next week along with hanging two doors. :D

It could be the bushes. I have just replaced mine in my De Walt 177e and it cured the problem. A word of warning though if you buy them from Miles tools and machinery make sure you order a pair as they are sold in singles! and are over £5 each! I made the mistake of thinking they were a pair (As...

Damn, missed it! :cry: Take that back, I found it.....wrong channel on sky. :oops: nice one Rog. :D

I got this delivered and installed today. Mum was very happy with it and said they will all want to sleep in it. :lol:

Just another example of the lunatic fringe we are becoming accustomed to in this crazy world of ours. :roll:
