Assuming windows: Control Panel, Administration Menu - Disk Manager. See if you can find it there. This looks at the raw disks. If it's there but has no drive letter assigned to it, the file system may be damaged/corrupt/broken beyond repair. Do NOT create a new filesystem/partition...

Dents are fine. Creases might be a problem and prone to leaking, but not dents.

Are you all mad? Get some beers inside you, a friend or two who shares your love of the absurd and it's the best thing on telly all year. Yes, I'm serious!

Yep, really is that simple. The only downside is the top stuff will die and look bad, but unlike ivy, bindweed will fall apart within a year or so.

"The truth is its own defence" Don't deviate from the facts, don't conjecture or cast any personal opinion and I find it difficult to believe you could be successfully prosecuted. If your isp pulls it, go elsewhere - or use a free site to start with, or host your own site.

Did you do any rodding/cleaning anywhere near that area? The pushfit wastes don't take much to push them off. Sure it's not coming out of the sink, shower and bath wastes? Bung them up overnight and sniff in the morning. As long as the water level in the toilet bowl is above the bend, no...

There's more than one proper way, mryoung :) Standalone pvrs show significant issues if you need to expand the system or have more commercial needs. My choice would be ip cameras - they're all I use. Far more flexibility in wiring, scalability etc.

You need to find out what he means. It needs to vent outside via a sealed pipe. Discharging into the house anywhere is definitely not a good plan.

TBH, a keen and enthusiastic 19 year old? Many people in the trade will see you coming and try to shaft you seven ways from sunday. Be on your guard!

Discussed, in detail, very recently here; http://www.diynot.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=271766

I stand corrected - never knew that! But yeah, very very unlikely. I get frustrated at ill-informed hysteria from all angles whenever this stuff is mentioned. It's the extreme end of the stories supposedly blamed on "Health and safety gone mad" - often no truth or bad interpretation of the facts.

It's vermaculite mixed with cement. It's the standard way to insulate around chimney liners and behind firebacks. I don't know of any asbestos containing product that looks like that and has no visible fibres. No reason anyone would have used it in that situation even if there was. It's...

These are getting increasingly common - the fake AV stuff is very plausable and professional looking now, and gets past several modern AV systems (Seen it walk right past Eset and AVG at least), and it gets rooted in very deep. Joinerjohn's advice is good, by the way. Losing file associations...

If it's added before the T-piece, of course it will overflow. It'll keep pumping, never being able to achieve enough pressure to stop. If it's added below, it could easily suck air in from that vent. But I'm confused. Why, in your diagram, is the hot water outlet side discharging into the...

Cut a one inch matching section of the veneer from somewhere that doesn't show and transplant it?

Er, cleggy - if the posts were concrete it would not have made any difference here. Given the extra weight they would probably have moved more. If closed-board fence moves, the posts aren't in deep enough. 2 foot for an 8' post is not the third recommended. You can get away with 25% footed if...

Note - I'm not an expert in fluid dynamics, but I don't think it's that simple. Judging from the little I learned when researching flow rates, only the center mass of the water moves in any significant way. In this instant, I imagine there would be a ~15mm column of water moving through the...

Next day is easier, since the concrete is still a little soft and doesn't hold onto the shuttering so much. But - if there is ANY chance of people walking on it, leave it up as they'll knock the corners off. They're vulnerable for at least a week. That's usually just a cosmetic issue, but it...

Do not use the Cuprinol water-based sprayable stuff. Sure, it's easy to put on, but it was flaking after less than a year on new wood. Not cheap either - about £14 for four litres.

Sorry to hear that, hope she's ok. I've used it for three RTA's (One which happened alongside me and was quite upsetting - the guy eventually made it, but was in ICU for months), two car fires, five horse rider falls (including my wife who broke her pelvis) and four other medical (two this...
