Of course, see attached. Hope this helps. The stud that abuts the wall will have a 3mm Epdm barrier to prevent damp and help create a better seal to the existing brickwork. DPC on “outside” of the thermal break in the existing brickwork, with PIR behind that to fill the cavity.

Thanks HOJ. I’m doing sketch C.

Thanks Lard. Was thinking of a 30mm gap, DPC to the “outside” and 30mm PIR in the Gap. Is that sensible?

Thanks HOJ, it’s single stud, 140mm.

Anyone? I know this is a bit specific and probably more at home on a building forum.

Evening all. I’m planning a timber framed extension on the back of my brickwork house. Do I need to create a cavity gap in between what will become the internal and external brickwork where the timber frame joins it to prevent thermal bridging? Thanks Col

Thanks Peter, much appreciated. Corded is fine for me, which gives plenty of options at a bit less cost. I absolutely love my other Festool kit, but I’m not sure I can justify twice the price of a top end dewalt. Is it really twice as good?!

Thanks Pete, they certainly seem popular.

Space is a premium for me, and I don’t need a full blown panel saw, but I would like a high quality portable table saw (site saw, I suppose). Is Festool the way to go, or should I be looking elsewhere? Thanks Col

Very much appreciated. 👍

Just had a quote for £1500 from those guys, but more than I was expecting. I think the “traditional” option will prove more economic.

Thanks a lot. Who did you get the kit from?

Hadn’t considered that. I’ll have a look.

Afternoon all. I could do with a bit of a steer on how best to construct the insulated roof on my garden room. It’s going to be a mono pitch roof, using profiled sheet. From the top down I’m thinking: Roofing sheet Membrane Osb 50mm air gap (ventilated?) 50mm PU insulation (should this be...

Can anyone recommend a decent YouTube channels for me to watch to understand the nuances of pond building? Have never done one before, so need to cover everything! Thanks Col

Give me a shout once you’ve got it fettled, timing wise that might work well.

Thanks a lot Ian.

Thanks both. That looks like the right sort of thing, but finding a single phase unit on the used market might not be that easy. What else should I be looking for?

Afternoon all. I’m moving house in a few weeks and will have a workshop that is a bit bigger than my current. Big enough for a combo machine, but not for them separate. I’ve got between £1-2,000 to spend, so I’m thinking that second hand would be the best bet. What would you recommend I look out...

Does anyone make such a thing? I want to connect my Festool extractor to my dewalt sander. Thanks Col
