Hello, Regarding the label machines I do have one, it was my Nans… a Brother P-Touch 1005. Regarding the labels that I can make at home, if I can get a pre cut printable A4 sheets then I can print them off, but I can’t seem to find the size or the pre cut paper. I am currently writing by...

Hello I have brought some storage boxes from The range, that belong to a wall mounted system. I didn’t get the whole kit, as I wanted to put the storage boxes where I would most likely to be needed. I don’t think I can get labels for these boxes, and I am having to create my own, I will then...

I have edited and shows why I need longer rivets. I need to attach clips to my knee walker, my crutches and possibly my wheelchair, but may not be required until I have my next surgery, but I am still recovering from the latest so that’s a good year in the future. Each clip is approximately...

Hello I am on the hunt for some blind rivets, and I have found a few online, but these seem to cost a fortune, especially when compared to a regular size rivets. You can buy a mixed set of approximately 1,000 rivets for £5-8 maybe extra for delivery. On this same side, I seem to find it hard...

Just wasteful of perfectly good tools turned into scrap? Unless you mean buy a replacement and then I would know if they are interchangeable, and if so stock up on the small parts? Not a bad idea… thank you.

I was more after if anyone here has had more than 2 combination squares and if so are they interchangeable? Sorry my wording is confusing and sometimes some of it is useless and/or unnecessary.

I think, thanks to your advise, I have a solution to this. Yes I would like a saw that would fit my workbench setup, I think I should keep my saw that I have (B&Q own brand compound mitre), using my lock/repeat cut for the saw, and use as needed on basic simple cuts. I think I will then find a...

Hello I have a simple cheap but reliable combination square as I keep dropping it, it still stays fast and true. I have a mix of good and cheap hand tools, one of them is a cheap combination square from the store that has a range of items. Anyway over the last couple of years, I have missed...

There is no budget set. Just putting aside money for one, and if it takes me a year then it takes me a year. I just want to know my options, keep an eye on price drops and increases so I don’t buy it then a few weeks later it’s 30% less then what I paid. I can also spend this time doing...

Hello So, I currently have a B&Q store brand Mac Allister compound mitre saw. I think I may have one of the smallest workshops in the country, being 2ft 6” deep, 6ft 6” height and 5ft 9” wide. I have an issue with space and always wanted a sliding mitre with a laser, but found the extra...

Already using the assistive touch button. Ideally I would like to wait until the law states or apple states right to repair is enacted. Example if I went to person A who can fix my home button, as it stands I will loose the Touch ID, but would have a functional home button. If I went to apple...

Hello So I am wanting to keep my iPhone 8 Plus for as long as I can, I got it when first came out, and want to keep using it for at least another 5 months hopefully until 2017 September new iPhones. About 2 weeks ago, the Haptic Touch of my home button didn’t “press”, but it unlocked and...

The highest step you can safely stand on is the platform height about 80cm, but the safe working height is not a set height on the ladder, it’s the total average reach height, based on an average height of a human. 170cm Add this together we get 170cm for average height of human + the height of...

Picture of the work area and a quick drawing explaining it, I hope this makes sense. Pictures look from outside in, the blue arrows are where I want screws, not sure how to get the screws in the between the spacers into the roof, unless I drill a hole threw the door opening.

I am disabled, my legs don’t work properly, they think autism related, I can’t do much, and what I do manage to get done takes me a lot longer than it should. That’s if my body can handle the stress/job, else I have to wait until my body is ready.

Lol… I am such a fool… not sure what my brain is doing most of the time, maybe pain/morphine maybe autism maybe a complete miss reading of the measurements… I need 350mm minimum length, maybe some sort of pocket hole job… You see my tiny workshop started to leak, but that leak got worse and...

Thank you. I had checked all my local stores that should sell screws, there was a couple that didn’t. I get easily distracted and find myself looking for one thing then 4 hours later I am somehow reading something like a battle of world war 2, to my head having a problem with accepted...

Hello I am in the need of about 5 extra long screws for wood/outdoor that is suitable for 4mm or 6mm pilot holes, that is a length of 200mm. Can do a bit shorter with counterbored holes where needed and anything too long I can trim down. I only require 3, but I am after not much more than 5...

I think I shall see if I can find a second hand one, what would the L would be a minimum capacity, unless I can somehow use the car tyre to have a capacity storage. If that makes any sense… But I realised that I could use it for a simple sandblasting setup.

I already have the tyre inflator as my sister isn’t great at car maintenance, and was driving around with dangerously low psi, some 20 psi below what it should be. So my mum went and got a half decent tyre inflator, and only really used it the once. But we keep it in the car, as whenever we go...
