Are you sure you’re not thinking of soldering tabs welded onto batteries? You can buy batteries with tabs on already ..but if you’re having to go to such lengths because the battery is no longer made, what good is the phone likely to be, really?

Seems you’re allowed up to the seating area; can you take a decent camera or a long selfie stick? it looks like cable trunking cut at 45 degrees

Don’t waste your time; if it’s goosed to the point of needing an influencer’s clickbait to tell you to fill it wilt Epsom salts it really needs replacing. Even if you get a bit of charge into it, it will let you down at some critical future point, in the snow, 100 miles from home

Are you doing this in halves? Disconnect at CU end, check for fail (should show on both), disconnect half way round, only one should fail (unless two faults), disconnect that one half way etc If you can gauge the route of the ring that is.. If there isn’t an obvious route I suppose you could...

Luke, does the top hinge stay in the pictured position if you try and pull it towards the centre of the opening(does the sliding lockout work effectively) Can you try and get pictures of the top and bottom of the moving part of the window frame, to see if the hinge is still well mounted there?

Disagree, the braiding resists the pressure and appears in good condition but should be covered up so it doesn’t become damaged. The outer casing is to protect the braiding

But equally, it’s not paid you as much as it looks when factoring in all the other things that rose over 15 years, including the cost of the place you moved to? Ah but apparently paying off their debts is what poor people do. Rich people find other people to pay off their debts. Now there’s a...

Mmm, I really think that photo of the black thing with the missing chunks showing the white thing is the high pressure water hose. It bears the text “max 60*C” which is typical for a jet hose: Anyhoos: That there with the white showing is more likely to have been damaged by lying on an...

On the context of a garden room, I’d be unconcerned about skipping it and just putting the insulation on the dpm on the well compacted base and liquid screeding it If you’ve already dug out for the level, crack on; it’s not a huge expense of concrete, it’s just work shovelling 3 tons of it...

Strive to avoid walking on any roof covering

Can’t see the need for the 100mm of concrete

“Don’t use things; some other things, some where, can cause some things to happen to them, so perhaps other other things else elsewhere can also cause things to happen” Mmm. Definitely a useful mantra

Are there really people that foolish? Because they aren’t enough already? The proportion of a pack of cigarettes that is tax is incredible, no?

Well, he’s decided to move them, paint, then refit so it’s decided.. But careful; someone might come along with the “you can’t do that” finger wag and say the silicone could cause the plasticisers to leach out I wondered how long it would take you to invoke that. Go do some more research on it...

Easy* to have not enough current carrying capacity in a kitchen, mind Give it its own ring if rewiring (*..er than any other room in the house)

Social media is the root of all evil

Indeed.. a) so coating a PVC cable with something fairly impervious to small molecules like O2 will make it more likely that larger molecules like C24H38O4 will be encouraged to leach out, embrittling the cable? and b) so what?

Some hinges have a button you can press to slide the whole window towards the centre of the opening by some inches for cleaning from inside the property. Check your top hinge hasn’t come unlocked and is causing a tilt. It may just need sliding back and locking in, maybe lubricating or cleaning...

We all have issues. Anyone who says they don’t, clearly has issues :)

Hi all Wonder if I could get some opinions on this: https://vimeo.com/1185052970?share=copy&fl=sv&fe=ci Yesterday, would start, but then engine shut down immediately after starting. Bit of throttle when starting and it fired up and stayed running Glow plug light blinking but seems erratic...
