All depends on what you want to do with it, if you are only going to use it for pumping tyres up, blowing dust out of things, a small one might well do. If you are planning on using a spray gun, 14CFM/ 3hp minimum, if you plan on using air tools, say a sander for instance, 18CFM/ 4hp minimum...

From a previous post :!: :!:

At what point of this topic has the function of this light(s) been suggested :?: :?: :?:

You need to use a filter or combined filter/regulator on either type, to remove the water out of the air, especially important if you plan on using a spray gun, not that you'll be able to do much spraying, with a compressor that small. IMO the oil free idea just dosen't wash, a piston going...

It was when fillament bulbs where still avaliable, to stop you using them, when you should of been using low energy bulbs, i.e. on new builds.

Can't say never looked at the photo's. I assumed(possibly incorrectly but as it turns not) that Mr xr4x4 would not be daft enough, to install a fire stop above a fire rated fitting. With that assumption I said it may be necessary to install some form of mechanical protection against the...

I was thinking of the hoods/covers, that prevent the insulation getting too close to the fitting, and not fire barrier cones/hoods.

Yes you can, but check on the specs, look for the F rated wattage, this is the max wattage you can use, in a normally flammable material, i.e. timber laths. Chances are you'll be limited to 35w bulbs. P.S. can't remember about the fire hoods, I suspect you will need separate hoods, but i'm...

Have a look on the Kewtech web site, I'm sure Kewtech do a loop tester, that is identical to the Robin, and the instruction manual, is available for download from their site

In all honesty, a decent spark to do the install for you :!:

Hi I've got a Candy CM462, wich was put on a normal 30C wash, which got stuck on the first wash cycle, and the water became boiling hot. Now if i put it on a normal wash, it just stays on the initial wash cycle, for as long as it is switched on, last time about 2 hours. If i put it on a fast...

Hum, me thinks cooker??

When you say new, do you mean new new, or new to you? My guess is it's an old oil cooled stick set? Very often these have somewhat oversized supply cables, as the welding set itself, can run at full tilt all day without overheating, hence the supply cable must keep up with it, without over...

That is taking the pee somewhat. I think a climbing rose up that trellis and along the cable, would look rather nice. But if your still not happy prune it with a felling axe!

I was told that by a BT engineer, he also said it dose occasionally happen. Ok yes that is worst case, and not the norm, but what the op is suggesting is not recommended! and illegal :!:

As mentioned, the drop cable from the street is the property of BT(or other network operator), and you are not allowed to touch it! If you do disconnect / reconnect it and make a mess of it, and an open reach engineer has to come out to fix it, and see's that it has been tampered with, they can...

Surly with a fitting of that size, you could move it a few inches one way or the other, so the fixings would hit a joist, without it looking out of place :? :?:

Sounds like your pipe vice has had it, to be honest, the jaws don't last forever, especially if the work is allowed to slip in them regularly, i am assuming you are using a pipe vice and not a normal metalwork vice?

Three things; Thing one, use a good stone, Norton India stones are the best and not that expensive. Thing two, lubricate generously, wd40 or similar is about the best. Thing three, learn to use a stone correctly, don't just rub like poo in the middle, start at the bottom end and do 2 or...

It is a crying shame as Bacho used to be the dogs nut's, but since they where bought out by irwin, which was subsequently bought out by snap-on, the quality has gone right down the pan! me thinks snap-on want you to buy there's, but at there price! think i'll give it a miss.
