Sunny bob, i might look into those custom made plugs, and yes i would say my lugs are on the large side. I keep the ear protection on most of the day as i'm on and off the radial arm saw most of the time, its usually running all day, and especially now i'm getting ringing in the ears, and can't...

Hi dickm thanks for that, i will contact them tomorrow. The switch did not play up it was working as normal then just did not switch off. Tried wd40. Its riveted in 4 places, could drill them out and take a look, then glue it back together. Can use it by switching on/off at the plug.

The switch on my Dewalt Power Shop won't switch off. So looks like it needs a new one as i can't get it open to look inside. Any places to try for a new one. Thanks.

£18 per hour for me whatever i'm doing, complicated jobs or easy, maybe time to put my prices up from what i'm reading. On site i never price a job as i'm always out on time taken and materials used. If i'm in the workshop making furniture then yes i give a price as its simple to work out.

Droogs i did notice it was used a mainly in model making. ED i was going to spray rather than paint, so needed some way to protect the hinges. Once the application problem is overcome then it looks like it will do the trick. Will get some and give it a go.

When painting windows and furniture i always manage to get some paint on the hinges. Was wondering if using liquid mask would help. Pro's and con's and makes if you have used any. Thanks.

Adidat, what a plonker at least you have 130 furniture and cabinet makers to pass the time, in between eyeing up the lovely nurses. You won't be needing the Douglas for a while then !

The prices will vary depending on who you speak to at a branch as well. I use Howdens a lot for kitchens Door and other odds and ends. Fitted around 10 of their kitchens for lets and would say they are ok, not the best quality, but its what you pay for. I know them all well at our branch, the...

Thanks chaps for the replies a lot to mull over. Actually the mould is on the ceiling where it meets the wall, would cold bridging on the wall still cause this ? The occupier is a tenant, i will ask her some questions regards the idea's put forward.

Have been asked to look at a property that has some mould about 6 inches wide along the bedroom walls where the internal side of the wall meets the ceiling on the external walls in all 3 bedrooms. On inspection of the loft space i was expecting to see damp running down the tarred roofing felt...
