    Mitre saw stand

    I've seen a few on there and they are either immobile or require a lot of storage space. Both are a concern for me. Please share any links for the bench you had in mind. Perhaps a platform that is built and then used on saw horses (which I don't currently own) could work?

    Mitre saw stand

    I have a Makita MLS 100 and May at some point upgrade to a sliding version. I currently place it in the floor every time I want to use it and then have to figure out how I keep studs and skirting level when I place the cut. I usually pack the furthest end of the timber with some offcuts to bring...

    Leak from roof lantern

    I saw some videos online where they are using CT1 to seal suspected leaks along the glass and framing. Does that work in your opinion?

    Mouse in loft

    I went in the loft over the weekend and had a good look and sniff around. I don't see any nibbling or additional droppings. I thought it would be wise to put something up there as a precaution

    Mouse in loft

    Thanks for all the responses. Let me try and answer them here. Cats - I’m working on that. More convincing to do ;) I’ve seen some droppings in the loft. My LA doesn’t offer any pest services. They refer us to local companies. I also live in the countryside and we back into some fields...
