Hello So a quick history, I have a mini fridge that we decided to spray paint it, including the glass door, we spoke to some “experts”, who said how to spray paint the door. We followed the instructions, but a few small areas the paint started to peel. I wasn’t annoyed by this as it looked as...

We have the following birds Magpie average - 250g Wood Pigeon - 550g Crows - 600g Gulls (aka sea gulls) - 400g to1500g Buzzards - 1kg Peregrine falcons - 1kg to 1.3kg Plus many smaller birds like robins. The birds then hit the pylons and fall some 30meters, or a bigger bird takes out a...

Hello So, as the weather is turning wetter for the autumn and winter months ahead, I have noticed my tools that I have kept in my shed, (had a huge hole most likely a bird death fallen onto the plastic roof, I have patched it, hopefully it won’t leak. Directly above my house is high power...

Hello, Regarding the label machines I do have one, it was my Nans… a Brother P-Touch 1005. Regarding the labels that I can make at home, if I can get a pre cut printable A4 sheets then I can print them off, but I can’t seem to find the size or the pre cut paper. I am currently writing by...

Hello I have brought some storage boxes from The range, that belong to a wall mounted system. I didn’t get the whole kit, as I wanted to put the storage boxes where I would most likely to be needed. I don’t think I can get labels for these boxes, and I am having to create my own, I will then...

I have edited and shows why I need longer rivets. I need to attach clips to my knee walker, my crutches and possibly my wheelchair, but may not be required until I have my next surgery, but I am still recovering from the latest so that’s a good year in the future. Each clip is approximately...

Hello I am on the hunt for some blind rivets, and I have found a few online, but these seem to cost a fortune, especially when compared to a regular size rivets. You can buy a mixed set of approximately 1,000 rivets for £5-8 maybe extra for delivery. On this same side, I seem to find it hard...

Just wasteful of perfectly good tools turned into scrap? Unless you mean buy a replacement and then I would know if they are interchangeable, and if so stock up on the small parts? Not a bad idea… thank you.

I was more after if anyone here has had more than 2 combination squares and if so are they interchangeable? Sorry my wording is confusing and sometimes some of it is useless and/or unnecessary.

I think, thanks to your advise, I have a solution to this. Yes I would like a saw that would fit my workbench setup, I think I should keep my saw that I have (B&Q own brand compound mitre), using my lock/repeat cut for the saw, and use as needed on basic simple cuts. I think I will then find a...

Hello I have a simple cheap but reliable combination square as I keep dropping it, it still stays fast and true. I have a mix of good and cheap hand tools, one of them is a cheap combination square from the store that has a range of items. Anyway over the last couple of years, I have missed...

There is no budget set. Just putting aside money for one, and if it takes me a year then it takes me a year. I just want to know my options, keep an eye on price drops and increases so I don’t buy it then a few weeks later it’s 30% less then what I paid. I can also spend this time doing...

Hello So, I currently have a B&Q store brand Mac Allister compound mitre saw. I think I may have one of the smallest workshops in the country, being 2ft 6” deep, 6ft 6” height and 5ft 9” wide. I have an issue with space and always wanted a sliding mitre with a laser, but found the extra...

Already using the assistive touch button. Ideally I would like to wait until the law states or apple states right to repair is enacted. Example if I went to person A who can fix my home button, as it stands I will loose the Touch ID, but would have a functional home button. If I went to apple...

Hello So I am wanting to keep my iPhone 8 Plus for as long as I can, I got it when first came out, and want to keep using it for at least another 5 months hopefully until 2017 September new iPhones. About 2 weeks ago, the Haptic Touch of my home button didn’t “press”, but it unlocked and...
