    Not another shed build!

    yeah that makes sense. it was more a "it should be x wide cos when cutting on a table saw you need x space." etc i wondered if people had that sort of idea... the one's i've looked at on here all look big when being built but then photo's do that, i guess that's why tables and stations are...

    Cable advice - HDMI / SCART etc

    yup sky use it. it is called siamese i think. they started using it because it was the same thickness as a std cable and so only 1 hole in the wall was required (less chance of making a mistake/mess) but it is normally expensive so the best bet i would think would be collar a sky eng and see he...
