In short, no, as it's dependant on what's about in your geographical location, and what matches with the building materials present. You're more or less looking at how well (or otherwise) graded it is, and the colour. When you look about online you will see people adding "stone dust" and other...

As with pretty much anything involving renders etc. you will find a lot of variation in advice on mixes. The main consideration for you is that the mix is the colour. Unless you go too far off the beaten track most of the options for lime will work. The basic mix that you see quoted often...

Another tenner off each. £120 / £470

Have you considered using a hand held belt sander to flatten them on the rear just where you need to flatten them? It would sound like more effort, but, as others have said, you might find that a thicknesser is more bother than you expect. You will find that the blades won't last long, and...

Ultimately, no one is perfect. I'm not religious in the slightest, but i like the idea of your life being weighed up at the Pearly Gates*. You do some good, and some bad, but you try and tip the scales in your favour. I guess i like the idea of some sort of ultimate judgement, although I'm...

Does all that translate as "it's going to last forever"? If not, all that changes is the time scale. Which is not wholly relevant to the direction of the question.

Fossil fuels will not last forever. I've not looked at a graph recently but peak production is around now anyway. Sure there will be new techniques, like fracking, but, ultimately, we are approaching peak supply with, assuming no alternatives, an ever increasing demand. So, aside from any...

These have not yet sold. Ill knock a tenner off each, and bump the thread at the same time! £130/£480

You were saying that "the media" was adding hysteria by turning the colours on the map red, and using a 1970s screen shot to demonstrate the lack of hysteria around similar temperatures then. I pointed out that plenty of dangerous things had no hysteria attached to them in the 1970s and you've...

I guess a bit like smoking. Was fine in the 70s, but now things have moved on a little, people, mostly, realise its a bad idea, and the packing represents that. 1970s looks kind of fun - Current - Which is more accurate though? I mean is a pack of lucky strike more likely to make...

Right. So your problem with global warming isn't that its happening, but in the colour schemes used in the graphics? Have I got that right?

Why did you use a graphic showing the temperatures 10c lower than they have been?

It has been this hot before, there's no doubt about it. I think the fastest I've ever travelled, relative to the surface, was about 500mph. We gradually got up to that speed, and gradually slowed down again. I walked away from the process. If you were to accelerate to 500mph too rapidly...

My partner always warns me that, when satire becomes too subtle, too close to what people actually say, that I just start to look like a "believer" myself. "... 'em" I say, "if it goes that far, there's enough crazies out there that ill just blend in" (technically, however, I'm not mixing up...

I remember, as a teenager, going out to shut up the fowl one evening. A friend was with me. Some of the batams would spend the night outside, and some in barns. Their choice. My friend who was with me exclaimed (when seeing the birds up the trees), "But how do we get them down?!?" I'm...

"Well, you have your opinion, and I have mine."

I've been vegetarian since I was a child. I'd worked out that animals were not all that dissimilar to us, that they felt pain and probably some sort of emotions, and causing them distress them simply to make our food taste different seemed a little selfish. More or less every adult, if they...

These, so called, scientists keep talking about "Global Warming", but say that it was 1000 trillion degrees C straight after the big bang. I don't know about you, but that sounds more like global cooling to me?

I have the same make for my battery tools, for obvious reasons, but for other tools, there is never one company that does the best of everything. I mean there's not with battery tools either, but you get locked into one system with them, so you have to accept compromise, but with mains powered...

I run a tra001 in a router table. Seems nice. Plenty of power and easy to use. I have a t4 (I think) as a small hand one. Don't often use it. I have a big Hitachi that I used to use in a router sled. Heavy, powerful, brutal (starts with a kick). I would say it depends mostly on what you...
