Need a chippy to fit ground floor skirtings and hang 12 doors. Been let down and got first baby on the way, so got a bit of a deadline to work to. :D Want the work doing in a couple of weeks time, ideally, so if anyone's got a few days spare in early/mid august, I'd be happy to talk to you...

This is the stuff you want. Don't know if it's available here quite yet but a quick email to the mfrs will answer that. http://www.nsg-spacia.co.jp/spacia/summary.html Clever stuff! Symo

Just thought I'd up this as I'm still handleless! :( :lol:

Ikea units don't have the "service voids" IIRC. Just don't fit the backboards when making the flat packs up - job done. Symo

That would be great but, I can't think how you'd tighten them up? Perhaps I'm just being dim? Not unusual....

Thanks masona. I'll keep that in mind for when I finally give up my epic quest. :( :D I'm seriously thinking of setting up an ebay shop if find a manufacturere of these things though. I can't be the only one looking or, perhaps, i am... :o HEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOO.... Symo

Thanks for that MrBenchmark! I've mailed them as I've had no luck yet!!

Very impressed by the speedy reply from http://www.ashardware.co.uk/ but, no joy... :( "Sorry for your dilemma Matt but our handles are for commercial entrance doors. I think you’d find them too bulky, also we don’t do less than 250mm centres. Tony Ellis"

Thanks salem2000. I've sent them a mail. I'll let you know if they come up with anything! Symo

Thanks for the idea Salem but, there are handles both sides and they need to have a back-to-back fixing system. Symo

LOL, yeah, that's what I thought. I did post in the plumbing forum but it got moved here! Not 100% about the make/model. Think it was a Trevi? But, anyway, I don't want another handle like this one, it's rubbish! Thanks for the reply and thanks too jasonb, I'm plowing through that, very...

Thinking it'll be easier to start looking for the Holy Grail! The rubbish, plastic fittings on my shower door have finally given up the ghost. Fine, I thought, get online and I'll have 10 million to choose from. Can't find one!!!! Looking for a set of handles, back to back fixings. Glass...

I'd just plaster board over it and fit a new fire surround. Dot n dab will be easy. Quick skim and job done. Plasterer would do it for about £150 all in I'd guess?

My guess is the base for some Architectural stone work, statue maybe? Symo

Allo Trigger!

Yep, I've got one in a sliding patio door! Got a slimline, clear acrylic, flap and had a new sealed unit made with the hole preformed in it. Cost a few bob though!! Measure your glass and take the measurements and your catflap to a local glazing co. and they'll sort it for you. Symo

Not on a Thursday evening. For a good example see Paterson vs Sanders July '86. Symo

Thanks Gordon, any help will be great! I think my lot might try and get every drop out of me, seems to be the nature of the beast! I'll go the LVT route if necessary though! TIA Matt

Big G. I'll be going for enfranchisement shortly on my house. My leaseholders use a management agency. I would be very interested in any "hot tips" you may have? I have visited the lease.org site but, obviously, I'm hoping to get the freehold as cheaply and painlessly as possible. I...

Very good drill. Fairly light and compact but well made with plenty of grunt. 2 batteries, case and an accesories set thrown in. Excellent value, especially earlier this year, as they were doing them for £75 then :shock: :wink:
