That looks great!!! You light looks **** though :LOL::LOL:

Thanks John, it’s just for storage and the joist are 6x2’s (y)

Daughters loft storage area is ready for some flooring. We can get 8x4 sheets up there so I was thinking of using 18mm shuttering ply because it’s strong and cheap. Would there be any disadvantage of using that compared to the 18mm 8x2 sheets of the P5 chipboard?

Yeah, I just punch them back in :mad: :LOL::LOL:

When I do drain repairs I never use a wacker. I use a hand rammer to compact the stone then rubber mallet to smack the blocks down onto grit sand (Or grano). Then once I brush the kiln dried over I tap the blocks with the mallet again to get them perfect.

If it doesn’t drain well you can slightly angle the slabs to run the water off.

I would put a 4D360 on it. You will have to remove the hopper and might need to lower the 4” a bit to get the lid on with a socket under it. You could also just cap it off with a socket and cap end. OsmaDrain Plain Ended Rodding Eye 110mm 4D360...

Melting would be the only issue.

I put the smoke bombs on a metal tray sat in the manhole channel. You might not see the smoke but you will smell it so it’s best if one person sets off the bomb and puts the lid back on the manhole, then someone else stays inside to check for the smoke/smell. When I do this on my own I often...

I knocked a peg in but it wasn’t quite right so I persuaded it with the shovel, it slipped off and I banged my head on the pile of slabs at the side of me :LOL:
