They're called "Banjo Shelf Supports". Just google them, there are lots of suppliers. Nicksun.

Have you tried locking the door in the open position? This will rule out a lock problem if it works and point to movement/expansion issues.

Thanks wyl, i reposted because the original was at the same time as your post and was on page 1, so thought it would be missed. Cheers for all your help. I'll investigate all options thoroughly. Nick.

mac391, I got the info from the back of the Osmo can. WoodYouLike, Is there any reason why i can't just use the top coat? This would probably keep the wood a little lighter, wouldn't it? Thanks for your replies.

Hi all, i'm about to sand a herringbone floor that is probably Merbau. Can anybody recommend a good finish for this wood? I was going to use Osmo Polyx but it is not recommended for dark hardwoods. I'd preferably like the wood to stay as light as possible but realize that the "wetting effect"...

Thanks ajrobb and Nickam, I can't add to the roof height as it runs quite tightly under the upstairs window cills. The wall between the rooms and the void is blockwork, so not easily insulated. Putting the insulation under the rafters is the ideal scenario, but not easily acheived, although...

Thanks Chukka63, Getting sheets of insulation into the void could be difficult but not impossible. The roof will be stripped back and refelted whatever option i take. I will be replacing the fascias and soffits, so over fascia vents or breathable felt are both an...

It's no problem removing and replacing the tiles and battens. My query was with the insulation/condensation/ventilation of the space. I'm a carpenter and do a little roofing from time to time. Thanks for your help. Nick.

Cheers Nickam, So 100mm celotex an 100mm rafters with breathable felt will be ok?

Hi all, hope you can offer some advice. i have a 1959 detached dormer bungalow. I want to insulate the short rafters below the dormers. If i fit insulation between the rafters will i need any ventilation to the space? The ceiling joists below have already been fitted with 100mm jablite but...

Thanks for replying Mac. I decided not to go down the circular saw route as i want to reuse the blocks. Anyhow, i went ahead with my plan and was as careful as possible cutting the tongues and then lifting out the loose blocks with a screw and pliers. I was probably lucky that there was enough...

Hi all, I've got some lifted 9" by 2 3/4" t&g blocks, which i presume were stuck down with bitumen or tar and need to take them out to refix them(they aren't moving, they sound hollow when you tap them). The problem is they are away from the edge so can't be removed block by block(if...

I bought and fitted a new EGR today. It was only £100 and it works fine. So problem solved. Thanks for the input. Nicksun.

Hi all, I hope you can help with a problem that I've just had. I've had problems with the EGR on my 51 plate Scenic 1.9dci. It's been cleaned twice with good results. The car now doesn't run after loosing power over 400 miles or so on way home from hols. Anyway, it was recovered by AA from...

An update. I was lucky to get a hose into the tank as there was no anti-syphon device installed, drained as much as i could (approx 25litres), put 12 litres of diesel in the tank, started it up and drove to the "diesel" garage and filled it to the brim. There was some "knock" initially on...

Thanks Stuart, I'll take a look in the morning. Nicksun.

Thanks for the reply but my concern is whether there is anything else that will need doing, such as cleaning the injectors etc..

Collect in a polypropylene container, decant into a bigger one with a lid and then take it to a waste station as suggested by the council. Mechanic and builder eh. is there no end to your talents? :D Nicksun.
