    Micro-hydro power generation

    geo thermal and or a heat pump for water heating is the most efficient I believe, something I'd like to do but can't figure the cost. whilst I agree somewhat with Bob that this is a bit pointless, that doesn't mean you can't do some front end investigation for the crack. I'd suggest you...

    LED panels

    Phil Does it say how much space is needed behind the panel? I'm wondering about surface mounting a couple but need to make sure they can be attached to the ceiling in this way.

    Black filler.

    fair enough, thanks for the information Rich. I've never used Sugru (as already suggested) and obviously confused it with Milliput. neither of which are applicable as you've pointed out. now I need to work out what I have used that sets rock hard and was black.

    thats the stuff I couldn't remember the name of. Cheers Tris, milliput and sugru are basically the same stuff.

    Black filler.

    it shouldn't be any different to epoxy with a finish. I haven't tried it though so can't comment on that one.

    Black filler.

    I never had a problem with it, once it was in the epoxy it was pretty much dissolved and didn't come out when rubbed or coated. maybe you should try the pigments first. :) cheaper than I remember. https://www.mbfg.co.uk/QL3146.html?gcli ... AYQAvD_BwE

    Conspiracy nuts. (split from Re: How does this work?)

    said the bishop to the prostitute. have you heard of a laser SBob? it's this crazy new invention that the military are working on that uses this really strong beam of light. guess what, it can be fired down fibre optic. don't worry though, it's easy to deflect, just put a bit of reflective...

    Japanese saws

    they are great. so are western saws. neither will make you cut in a straight line if you use them wrong.

    Black filler.

    araldite is an adhesive not a filler, it shrinks. not good. you can buy pigments for epoxy or polyester resin, normally in teeny tiny pots that cost the earth. I've seen good results with carbon black used as a pigment and that can be made yourself (charcoal and a pesel and mortar) you can...

    Hand tools

    why does it need to be one or the other? buy a saw, a plane and a selection of chisels, doesn't make a jot where they are from, you will have to learn to use them.

    Bark stripping off hazel shanks

    I do love how everyone thinks I'm taking the pish. If it's green hazel, potato peeler. my 3 year old can do it, she's been doing it since she was 2 in fact as it's what they used in forest school because it's safe, easy and works. if it's been dried with the bark on, then forget it.

    If you only found 1 file you didn't pull the draw out far enough. it opens a door when it gets to it's full extent, the last guy who entered is still there apparently, something about it joining L space.

    was there anything about the lizard people in there Bob? I tried to go to MI5 once, but it was closed so I went to Ikea instead.

    Conspiracy nuts. (split from Re: How does this work?)

    Add to that an airgun over the legal limit (12lbft long barrel rifle or 6 for a rifled pistol) falls under the same law. Hence i own a chrono and a pack of the heavy pellets.

    Conspiracy nuts. (split from Re: How does this work?)

    But the 92 would have ruined my highly crafted and most amusing joke. Also, didnt notice the trigger guard. :D so i plead ignorance.

    Conspiracy nuts. (split from Re: How does this work?)

    who brings a gun to a knife fight? wait, that's the wrong way round isn't it? based on a 1911, more like a 1011 if you ask me. :D
