    Garage RCD

    Thank you for your very quick responses! I presume the lights are wired correctly then? I don't follow why this would be? If the trip comes from the garage why would the RCD not trip first if this would be the first place it would hit? So referencing the cable coming from the house to the...

    Garage RCD

    Hello, I have been wanting to sort out the electrics in the garage for a while now and since were on lock down what better time to do it. So at present the garage electrics come from a 16Amp fuse which is in the consumer unit with an RCD. The issue is every time the electrics trip in the garage...

    LED fluorescent battens

    Sorry forgot to add my garage is 5m long and 3m wide roughly would 4 of these be overkill? I am using my garage for my workshop so I am wanting plenty of light. Thanks

    LED fluorescent battens

    Hi, Thanks for all the replies. I already have LED bulbs in the garage but they dont cover enough area and arent bright enough which is why I wanted to go down a larger light source route. These fit the bill and I would have thought LED run for longer and less water but brighter lighting...

    LED fluorescent battens

    Hello, I am looking at changing the lights in the garage to some LED flouresent lights. I am looking at these: https://www.wickes.co.uk/Sylvania-Start-5ft-Twin-IP65-Waterproof-Fluorecent-Fitting---No-Tube/p/185061 I am wondering if I could connect them all together if I get approx 4? They...

    Making a Yarn Swift

    Thank you for the ideas. I have checked out both videos posted but they are not standing swifts so couldn't be used as it's a space issue. Hence the standing and clamping to a desk. As for the ball bearings I haven't ever used them before so if I were to use something like say a coach bolt...

    Making a Yarn Swift

    Hello, If you have no idea what I am even trying to make that's probably because neither did I when the other half asked me to make one. She shown me pictures of them and decided she wants one like the link below. I can do the majority but I have never had to make anything move before or clamp...

    Dust Extractors

    Thank you so I don't need a HEPA filter then as I don't have a dust allergy. I did find the trend ones but as you say they are a bit small. I did notice the price tag however if it will last a long time and not give me any health problems then it's probably a very good investment going...

    Trim Routers

    Thank you all for your help I have gone for the infinity lettering bit and the Makita cordless router as I think it would be good given the cord length on it and what I will be doing and where I will be working. So I will be able to work better without having to rejig the garage to start putting...

    Trim Routers

    Ahh thanks for the clarification. Buts it's a decent run time either way whatever it is? I presume you run yours on speed 3 or 4 then with the 24,000rpm? If I do opt for the cordless I will be looking at the fast charger as I think they make more sense. What is the model for the fast charger...

    Trim Routers

    Thanks. I am just curious really as to how long they run for. I have read that people have been using them all day and the battery hasent drained. But I get your point as to not using it continuously. And from what you have said if I understand it correctly you are getting roughly 45 minutes...
