mines one of my ocicats I just liked the picture. Alan

Absolutely I have to agree here, it's the poor presentation of the documentation to some extent that puts people off calling for assistance. It doesn't give a good feeling to the purchaser. Well to be honest if you say it surprises you then it is no longer a surprise is it? it's a business...

DW I must just say that I agree with the general consensus of forum feedback here that if you want a saw at a good price you now have one, it's just at that price point you have a couple of adjustment niggles which they will sort out for you and if there is an issue with the fence they will also...

Tony I can't quite see from the Charnwood picture but three things you MAY want to check out. The axminster cast table is full width. The wheels are cast iron not aluminium. The guides are bearing guides not friction type. I have a Europac which has these slightly "lower" standard components...

I have a badger 200 with a larger needle/nozzle which I have used quite successfully to spray large things..rocking horses. It's not ideal for that in terms of time etc but it demonstrates that it can be done. I choose the Badger 200 for pretty much the reasons I just found on this site...

Hi sledgehammer welcome to the forum, I have been plumbing this last three weeks upgrading my downstairs half of the system digging up floors piping etc. As a result I needed to dry pressure test the new install, so I made a pressure tester out of some bits of pipe a schrader valve and a gauge...

Ahhh You've met one of my cousins then :-) I hope you treated her well. You'll be sure to have a warm welcome if you come up this way boy, but don't stray from the path onto the marshes. Alan

:) I thought that might reel some in.. no offence, just an expression my dad told me years ago, I daresay Londoners have a similar expression for us "carrot crunchers" Thanks to all for all the replies so far, Scrit as ever extremely thorough, gives me a fair bit to consider and mull over, but...

Welcome to the forum tagnut69 and thanks for the reply will check them out. Alan

Hi My missus ..bless her...says I can have a nailer. Now I have built a couple of clad buildings and avoided having one and used "mark one right arm" and "London screwdriver" but I have to admit I did get a bit of tennis elbow. Anyway I've always avoided them as an amateur I am not sure it would...

I am not sure whether you really meant to say this, but it is worth mentioning to those who may not know...all regs etc aside as I am clearly out of my depth on that. Plaster/cement can have an effect on the insulation of cable. The result is a sort of gooiness, it doesn't always happen but it...

Just so as I get this straight. Does the new 24" jig do everything that the D4r does just more expensively ....even with the discount from Rutlands? Because I am sorely tempted on the grounds I can ebay it if I find it gathers dust in the corner, and if anything is going to gather dust I'd like...

You have but to ask :-) Cushions, Barn road Norwich and they store their materials truly flat, not on a couple of bearers. Cheers Alan

Well if they are the LED ones which I suspect they are but don't say, then be prepared to be underwhelmed, nice for mood lighting but if you want to see what you're doing which I tend to get the halogen and live with the cost. From limited experience I have had the 12volt ones and had very few...

Alan siad previously Roger I have echo your words whilst I sort of agree in principle :-), we are sort of a society and supposedly these people are an elected body to work on our behalf and as such have a duty to make the correct information available. Not everyone has your abilities and...

Interesting, because this is kind of worrying on 4 counts. 1)council doesn't know it's own rules, after what is now a fair time to get to grips. 2)The council do know and are prepared to be fraudulent with the public. 3)most people are ignoring the regs so there is not enough throughput to bring...

Thanks for replying guys will check it out. Alan

Interesting thoughts Roger, so if you are asked upon inspection where the cert is, how do you prove the work is legit? doesn't seem quite right does it. What's the answer Davy? Alan

We have decided to up the spec of the wood trim in our Lounge and fit some new doors and architrave/skirting, this now extends to the hallway and study and kitchen doors. I have seen a good price for some engineered trim and this may be a good buy in that it's stable. I was wondering if anyone...

I will come out in sympathy with you, couldn't agree more. Mustn't say too much though or you may get political :-) Are you suggesting if something is done before 1985 there is a get out clause? Alan
