So the new trap will just screw on to the waste pipe?

Thanks for the detailed reply, Few more pics how the trap connects to the waste pipe: ----------- I think you guys are right it probably could be repaired/adjusted, but it would take more time than I have, especially if the repair/clean doesn't work + it stinks to high heaven. Easier to...

So I need to replace one of these: These are the replacements I'm looking at: https://www.screwfix.com/p/mcalpine-appliance-trap-white-40mm/81714 https://www.screwfix.com/p/mcalpine-wm15-appliance-trap-white-40mm/5849v My questions are: What is the difference between the two replacement...

hand tools only ...going old school

thanks big-all. essentially all you need is being able to walk around a bench & approach from 3 sides ..for storage use walls, rafters and high shelf ..10x12 is plenty and that includes doing all the cuts inside

how much did each stage set you back?...the initial build then the later insulation/ply ....& how did you do the base?

Thanks for the replies... The site does not have road access and is at the back of the property so the H2 building is out ...also & I might be wrong, but surely those will be more expensive than an equivalent self build? As the workshop will be for instrument making, the largest peace of...

Low Cost: Thinking about building a 10x12ft workshop for woodwork in my back garden..basically a walk-around-workbench in a room & I'l be doing the labour. Dampness/humidity is an issue for materials....& will generally avoid heating if I can help it...climate sensitive woods etc will...

sure, but why is this any less safe? ..if anything the top of the wall has less protection as there is no skirt how many do you count? 7" isnt 700m ..its entirely relevant if you read the thread you will see access is an issue the two things are not mutually exclusive ..quite the...

yeh I seen that, but it seems the space between the top of the wall and the ceiling is allowed ...as it stands I'm going to have 15 wires + choc in the backbox ...the horizontal run along the skirt would only be 7" in length ... and could cut a face-plate sized door for future access

thnx, had another idea, but don't know if its allowed..stashing the choc/join behind the skirting? ..as there is quite a large cavity there ..and it would still be accessible by removing the skirt like this:

got b&q in the morn, & looking at the different options to make the join.... if using a choc-box(in back-box) to join/extend the ring, what rating should the choc be, Im guessing if the 2.5mm ext. cable is rated at 27amps the choc needs to be the same or greater..opinions on this seem to...

25mm [/url] it's buried in the wall(..at least it will be) ...cos hes taken the spur from the faraway socket..the cable is a bit lower than it has to be..making it just outside the 'safe zone' ...I'l move it to the nearer socket..so the spur is almost inline with the socket instead of...
