Why use:- "my bad" instead of my mistake. "absolutely" instead of yes.

Once again thanks for your reply. The information provided should help members to understand construction aspects that they have observed but not been involved in. It is also possible that OP marcus will have an enhanced understanding on how his development should proceed.

Thanks for your explanation, informative. The image of the reinforcement cage seems to show 2 separate links at each location. Is this usual practice or a fix to overcome a bending error?

Looking at the white rectangle it looks like one of the piles will not be completely under the ground beam. Is this acceptable?

Surly steel fixing of this standard can not be accepted

Hi bgrbff from what has been mentioned it seems you are looking for a 7 day timer that can be be programmed for boiler operation to suit the days and times you require. The thermostat will switch boiler operation at the set room temperatures only when the boiler programmer allows. Why not...

If you have a mounting stand for your drill this may help.

Is there any chance of a welding repair to the headstock?

Fixed base routers are perfect for edge machining. D_W has put his finger on the safety issue. If a fixed base router is used to crowd a rotating bit on to timber it will be necessary release the locking mechanism between base and motor unit. The result is the motor unit could come free with...

Hi TMHM later versions of the BK3 used circular brass rod of about 7mm dia. as blade guides. I do not think any additional modifications were available in the form of ball bearings.

These cuts are possible using handheld router and simple jig.

That would certainly transfer some of the loading to light duty posts not intended for this function. The proposed structure is high enough to require planning permission for it to go ahead as proposed.

If this construction goes ahead it could cause some upsets in usual UK windy weather. Each infill panel may experience a total wind loading of between 1500 and 1600 pounds. It may be necessary to have a builders skip on site for a quick clear up.

Record Power Tools produced a BK3 bandsaw based on the Burgess model. Some spares may still be available.

Hi the charger output of 14.4 volts suggests the battery is NiMh type [nickle, metal, hydride]. A battery of this sort will be made up of 12no cells each with a voltage of 1.2 volts and requires a dedicated charger which prevents overcharging. Is it possible to contact the trolley manufacturer...

How about closely spaced vertical cuts with circular saw and chisel used to knock out waste.

Check Pilkington website for automotive glass. Specification and correct location of glass type will be shown.

Hi. Why not contact your Local Authority to check if building regulations approval includes the pillar you mention. Full details of the construction may be available and resolve the matter.

For hand routing letters have a look at the Katsu Trimmer. It is lightweight and relatively cheap. This trimmer can be fitted with a plunge base which is probably what you need. Aim Tools is an internet place to look at to sort out what might suit.

Before calculators and computers almost all precise mathematical calculations relied logarithmic tables. In GB engineering relied on 7 figure log tables for accuracy. The tables enabled ship builders, railway builders. civil engineers, military engineers and most other engineering activities to...
