I won't be having a cill. Difficult to weigh up if sealing a normal uPVC frame is worth the cost saving.

Wow! I think I'll get a quote to see what the damage will be on roof windows. Thank you for your reply

I want to put some external windows on an angle. I know I should just use roof windows but they are a lot more expensive. Surely if i just silicone the glass into the frame that would work.

Hi, does anyone know if you can tilt a normal double glazed unit (in a uPVC frame) by 15° backwards? Some frames allow water to drain down onto the cill and out, but if if was tilted backwards would this still work? If there a way of making them waterproof. Adding silicone?

So I've done a little bit to the inside: Pull-up bar and punch bag by MR M - DT posted 3 Feb 2016 at 11:09 PM Made this pull up bar out of a bit of steam pipe. Quite pleased with the design. Pull-up bar by MR M - DT posted 3 Feb 2016 at 11:13 PM

18" is plenty for blocks.

The back plate is 5mm mild steel, plasma cut to the shape of a bat.

Installed my pull up bar!

I've not done alot since the arrival of my baby son, apart from finish painting the front. Hobbit shed by MR M - DT posted 30 Sep 2015 at 7:57 AM And doing a little work to the inside. Photos to follow.

The front painted.

Nice idea. I'm no where near there though. Cheers.
