Hello Thank you. Yes the stuff appears to be thermalite or aircrete Many thanks

Hello I was hoping someone can give me an answer to this and perhaps some ways to fix it but basically I've moved into a rental and the hot water is driving me mad. The hot water seems to have two options: off or baking hot. The thing is when is on it runs really slow especially in the bathroom...

Ok thanks. Which plugs are required?

No anymore no. It came with bolts and plastic wall plugs but it is currently in brick. I will be removing it and taking it to my new place which has breeze blocks in the garage.

Terrypin what bolts and plugs will I need?

Hello I want to suspend my speedball platform in my garage it is all breeze block. Can I suspend it in the breeze block at all?

Cheers that's helpful.

Thank you. Just curious as a neighbour has got someone out tonight doing it.

Bit vague here but how long does drilling a lock usually take? Say on a front door/dead lock.

These replies have helped A LOT. Thank you for the reassurance and sorry if this thread initially sounded silly. I do get worked up sometimes.

Thanks. Its actually quite reassuring to hear that

Hi I dont think i ingested it that much. I didnt come into physical contact with it. I wore nitrile gloves and didnt get any skin contact. Im more concerned about inhaling the fumes.

It was PLUSeries 60 second adhesive

I used a glue and just realised it has a toxic symbol on it. Im a bit paranoid now but did use nitrile gloves and worked in a pretty large room. Do i need to worry about short term exposure? I mean obviously next time if i use it i will use a proper respirator or an extraction unit. I did...

Hello That is a fair point. Hes not the best but far from the worst (so far). Why, what was you going to suggest?
