    New Shed Windows

    Sorry for the late responce, been mega busy with the new year and all, only just getting back into the swing of things. UPVC? I don't even know what that is. LOL. I shall look into it a bit for next time but after a little bit of a look around online my buddy, Mike, recommended Polycarbonate...

    New Shed Windows

    Hey guys, wondering if you might be able to give me a hand. I am redoing my shed, or rather i am fixing it up a little before the weather gets really heinous and the roof falls in or something. I want to replace the shed window, which is currently transparent acrylic, and though I am...

    Anybody know the current price of walnut (roughly) ?

    this is the site I use for my wood and I have found them to be very reliable. If you want to see how much the wood will cost you simply enter it into their calculator and it will let you know right away. http://www.woodshopdirect.co.uk/planed-all-round/american-black-walnut-timber If you...

    Will America ever learn?

    Allowing anyone in a society to own a firearm is moronic and nothing good can come from it; however I would not want them to make it illegal now, as law abiding citizens would hand theirs over and then only morons and criminals would have them and that would be even worse. Guns should never...

    Steel frame roof to a gable wall

    Hey. Sorry to hear about your roofing woes. Perspex sheeting is pretty easy to fasten down, you jest need to drill the holes in first; which you will need particular drill bits to achieve. Once you have these you ought to be pretty well set though. If you fancy a little bit more...

    How to construct top of wooden units?

    Well I am glad to hear that it is a good site, I would hate to be giving out bad intel. I think I shall try it out myself sometime. Unfortunately i cannot say that I have seen any around on my travels, but then again I have not really looked. Leave it with me and I'll have a scout around :)...

    How to construct top of wooden units?

    If you're just looking to construct is simply a top surface then you do not necessarily need anything fancy, and depending on how much work you want to do to it (decorative touches and what not) or if you just want to wrap the project up, then you're probably best off ordering cut-to-size wood...

    Decking Questions

    Not sure if this is going to end up being helpful at all, but I follow this guys blog and whilst he is not a DIY fan exactly, amongst all his complaining he does occasionally come out with some good stuff. He talked in his last post about putting up some decking, so he will probably be...

    Islamic schools

    You're right I did misunderstand. I agree with your sentiments entirely; an action not condoned in a particular culture - even when justified with religion - is unacceptable and should not be tolerated or respected. I'm sorry for ranting at you dude; and for accusing you of being angry...

    Islamic schools

    I am uncertain if they are in fact more prevalent even in relation to other denominations, but they are certainly in the view of the media more and they actively seek their attention; either way I can see your point. It would be difficult to weed them out, there is no doubt of that, and there...

    Islamic schools

    Just because you think it is nonsense doesn't change the fact that it fits the definition / criteria of a religion. Islam is worshipped by millions of people who are not violent or aggressive, and do not deserve to be subjected to your misguided anger. Your anger and hate is utterly unhelpful...

    Islamic schools

    Firstly buddy, let's be a little respectful at least "this so called religion" is a religion; so don't be that guy. Secondly, there are British / Christian schools in some Arab countries e.g. St. Christopher's School in Bahrain, so if we are able to have those abroad then surely it is only...

    Death Penalty

    I would go with the firing squad out of the options available to me, but if I would prefer the guillotine all-in-all. If was good enough for Marie Antoinette and Danton, then it is good enough for me!

    This can't be right, surely?

    I'm have to say Foxhole raises a very fine point, Blue Sofa? Really? But no seriously, having a plug socket right above a hob is a little odd. It doesn't even go with the splashback.

    sanding solid teak table

    A dust mask would be a good Idea, and whilst the standard white ones with the elastic strap will do the job just fine, the more expensive variants will of course do a better job of filtering out the dust; but as this is a one off project you should have no worries. Like foxhole said a vacuum...
