    Metal Back Box Clips

    Tut tut, you’re being a bit triggerbaity there SUNRAY, taking a shot before the wires were fully seated and leaving the impression the YouTuber left the cores exposed. Seek to a few frames later. I do think they Could have made a better job of getting the outer sheath into the cable clamp...

    Cleva Lawnmaster collection box flap conundrum !!!

    Can you hold the flap open and take more photos of the flap hinges and where the grass bin mounts onto the machine? Can you take a video (have to host on YouTube or Vimeo etc and post a link) of the flap opening and closing? Interested to know if the flap could be made to fit better by heating...

    Cleva Lawnmaster collection box flap conundrum !!!

    Have you got some soft foam rubber lying around? I wonder if shaping up a gasket from it would help bridge any gaps and keep the grass from flying out even if the flap is an ill fit Can you hold the flap open and take more photos of the flap hinges and where the grass bin mounts onto the...

    Metal Back Box Clips

    It’s also potentially an opportunity to buy another power tool! These moments are never to be passed up, especially if it’s birthday time imminently :)

    Half garage conversion

    I wouldn’t bother with regs, I’d just put up a stud wall in the garage. I don’t see any reason why you’d need to make any changes at all to the insulation or moisture barrier int, your tumble drier/fridge-freezer/washer may already be in the garage and they certainly won’t complain if you don’t...

    Cleva Lawnmaster collection box flap conundrum !!!

    Show us a picture so we can make suggestions; some smart innovators here will have plenty of ideas if they can see the problem, but may have no idea what a cleva lawn master looks like, nor can imagine exactly how yours is distorted and ill fitting

    Metal Back Box Clips

    Didn’t read yours before I made mine, but if it helps assuage any “please sir please sir, me first! Me first! Aww but that was my idea!” sense of upset, then I acknowledge that your suggestion is a generalised version of the specific advice on tooling and technique I offered Perhaps the OP has...

    Recharging potable water expansion vessel

    Regards the EV, if it’s been sat a which in a depressurised state the membrane may be stuck to the inside of the vessel, and getting it unstuck might take a while/bit of work depending on what pump you’re using.

    Metal Back Box Clips

    You’re supposed to fit the boxes before the plasterer comes Buy a router, place DLB over hole(wrong way round; easier to hold), draw round, router out the edge of the hole a fraction(1-2mm, freehand, you won’t slip much), fit the DLB, go round with filler and sand paper Then you have to mess...

    soldering AAA batteries

    As I keep saying, there isn’t a direct relationship between generation and frequency. A mobile “generation” is mainly about the radio technology and network architecture: how the spectrum is used, how data is encoded, how devices are scheduled, how antennas are used, how handover works, latency...

    soldering AAA batteries

    Changed by addition, sure. 5G uses additional frequencies that 2G doesn’t, but I really want to get away from associating the two. Successive generations achieve better performance not primarily by using other frequencies.. You can’t escape the physics of the universe, that low frequencies...

    Routing Ethernet transversely to I-joists from front to back of house

    Go for it. Running multiple is reasonable but replacement can often be done by using the old cable as a pull cord

    soldering AAA batteries

    Er, it wasn’t quite what I was going for. The example was always that the road (radio waves) stays the same, and it is how it is used that gets cleverer and cleverer. Radio waves haven’t changed since the start of the universe, they just wiggle along, travelling some distance, passing through...

    Paddle Mixer Bricklaying Mortar

    If you’re struggling to “beat a brick down” you’re probably putting too much mortar on or not adopting a good “pair of toblerones” shape Show us a picture of what your laying looks like just before you set the brick in place When I set mine I scoop the mortar on the board, tip the trowel up on...

    Make hexagon with mitre saw

    Print a hexagon. Measure it, use the scaling percentage option in your print settings if it’s wrong, to increase or decrease the size Cut out and use to mark up Or just print loads, stick them on your wood and cut to the lines

    0.8m x0.6m 12.5mm board repair

    You could but I bet if you set your level at any other point on the wall, unrepaired place, you’ll find a 1mm deviation that you don’t notice in normal use anyway

    soldering AAA batteries

    G-ness isn’t much to do with radio waves. Radio waves are the road; they don’t really change or advance, they’re just a way of getting info from one place to another G (generations) represent more like cars, and are advancements in technology. If you look at the progression of car technology...
