That is just plain greedy lol! No wonder the rest of us can't get one at a reasonable price!

Thank you. Would the air gap need to be vented? As if I did that as it is currently, it would be a sealed box with the insulation on the inside then air gap then brick wall

Solid brick wall, 2 bricks thick

It's the outside wall, so fresh air Mike

Yes, I didnt mean fibreglass, I meant whatever the non itch type stuff is sorry.

Hi everyone, I use my attic as a small stuff workshop- it is boarded and the rafters are covered internally in a couple of layers of double airtec and shiplap- has been like this for 20+ years and gets nice and warm up there with a heater on and is completely dry. I want to insulate the end...

Yes..... those plastic clip on ball cleaner things are the bane of my life. Have had to remove more than one toilet entirely when they have got stuck round the U bend and resist all efforts to dislodge. Particularly nasty, sh!tty and smelly job!!!! Don't buy them folks use the drop in tablets in...

Economists warning on worsening effects of Brexit- your comments please all you pro Brexiteers? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cd988p00z1no

I've got a couple of old bandsaw blades that snapped/ weld gave way; what do other people do with them please? Ideas for repurposing?

Excellent quality for price, used them and and only them for years

Over many years, I have a number of aerosol cans- either paint, lithium grease etc etc where the nozzles are either clogged/ lost/ damaged. Don't really want to throw them away, so started looking at replacement nozzles on eBay (not prob best place but it was late).... very confusing, there are...

Thank you Roy. Yes, have considered Celotex- the current wall is just painted brick with the brickwork not being especially flat. Have you any suggestions to get it to fit tightly without voids? Or would a thin layer of roll type fibreglass insulation behind the Celotex to take out the...

I have a large loft room which is used as my office. The one end wall is a party wall and is insulated on the neighbours side, the side walls are internal to roof and are insulated, as is the roof. My question is about the gable end wall, which is just a brick solid wall, no cavity and is...

Given that anyone using a table saw is going to be a woodworker, I am gobsmacked they actually buy push sticks etc rather than making their own as they are so simple!

Yes like SeanF, I'd highly recommend JSP Press To Check filters too- they are sized so there is a Small and there where they meet the face is very flexible rubber to mould to all facial shapes. Good luck

With soldering comes the risk of fire/ heat damage plus all pipes have to be empty of water. Push fit I know quick and easy but can't bring myself to trust them even now.... So for me, its compression fittings every time- easily changeable and reuseable, if there's a slight weep, just got to...

I have cut the square end off a number of mine with a hacksaw and use them in a cordless drill at the slowest speed as they are not designed for high speed. Still work effectively!

I tried one of those clamp on drill stands, it was useless, didnt drill straight and to get it to clamp on, you needed to tighten it nearly to point of breakage. Gave up and bought a small purpose made drill press. Tbh it does not take up much more room than that clamp on type, but is infinitely...

Bootlace ferrules and Wago connectors are way to go and all you probably will ever need for most purposes! Love the Wago 221s, good stress reliever clicking em bit like used to click a biro years ago!

Very sad, but where I live there is a Poundland directly opposite- lot of people go there as its cheaper and pretty much stock same stuff, but I often go to Wilko simply because they have a human checkout person!
