very clever of you :wink:

like? (there is no ther way, but to replace the whole run of cable, which is not possible)

laziness really... I hate the word 'amalgamating' and like the word 'waffles'.

what a handy piece of kit, I won't need a special drill for it will I?

thanks Masking Tape, right? and unfortunately i don't have access to a center stand drill :(

I have quite a few blank plates to drill and am printing templates from Microsoft Word and taping them on. I then mark the holes with a hammer and nail and then drill, this isn't totally accurate, so any tips on how to improve it would be appreciated

thanks, that's great

so it is accessible or for protection?
