    Building my own driveway gate.

    Metal's not that cheap. If you are planning on covering it all in wood then it would probably be simpler and cheaper to make wooden gates in the first place. search.php?keywords=gates&terms=all&author=&sc=1&sf=titleonly&sr=posts&sk=t&sd=d&st=0&ch=300&t=0&submit=Search e.g. post1259606.html

    Building my own driveway gate.

    4 or 6 inch galvanised posts sunk and concreted at least 2 feet into the ground. Forget the cross member unless you never want a transit, 4x4 with a roof rack etc to enter the drive, and if the posts are in properly you won't need one. 50mm box will flex/ bounce over 1.7m especially with the...

    Large holes

    I'd suggest that the link arms are not a flat bar with holes in, rather a flat bar with the ball ends (or ball end holders welded on the ends) . given that the ball ends would have to welded into the holes anyway as if they were pressed into the two inch hole, as mentioned earlier, you have the...

    Bandsaw blade wobble

    Bandsaw blade wobble

    Apologies for stating the obvious but try a different blade. If the wobble disappears it was the blade.

    Present disaster

    "Come on" I said "lets go collect your Xmas pressies. We'll take your car" (I had a van at the time.) Up to the local shopping area we went but for some reason her excitement wained a little as we drove through the shops, out the other side and into the industrial estate. "Pull in next left"...

    Planer Accident

    'kin idiot! There are accidents and there are things that happen to morons. This, I suggest, is the latter. And as for "call 999!, call an ambulance!" - get in a *&^% taxi or get a lift and leave the ambulances available for people that actually need one! If the moron in question is a member...

    newbie first thread: shed floor joists

    Welcome I don't have the knowledge to comment on your specs but I would suggest one thing. The one thing I do know is that (typical treated softwood) decking invariably rots. For that reason I would make the frame of the shed and decking two separate items, supported on the same posts if you...

    Poor TV reception due to transmitterand engineers

    If I may :) Is it possible for the Beebs satellite uplink(?) to be weak or dodgy? We had a 'weak or no signal' a few days ago on the freesat box but only on a few channels, mainly BBC. My initial suspicions were the tree across the road as it looks like now that it has its full cover of...
