Aint no expert on three phase but, I've certainly seen three phase compressors running from 240v outlet. So it must be possible. :?

You'd be hard pressed to make one, of any quality, for less than you could buy one at the sheds. Plus if time is pressing you are possibly unlikely to be able to make one of any quality in time, they're not that simple to make. Failing that just cut a 6ft x 2ft piece of 1" ply and stick a...

I doubt very much the BIOS is the cause. You mentioned it was cordless, was the other mouse you tried corded? IF yes: I would look for hardware conflicts and if none found I'd uninstall any drivers for the mouse, reboot and reinstall them. If that fails then you may well need to do a complete...

Well despite all the advice I got one, mainly cos money was very short at the time. It's 'ok' and will do the job but it's very flimsy and some of the mcbs are not that great a fit on the rail. Wish I'd waited a bit really and got a decent one.

Well you did make a 'bit of an effort' I grant you but, I see no mention of punitive compensation to cover his post traumatic stress at being sans a bulb for a period of time. :lol:

Oh I can believe it. I trust you dropped everything, rushed round and replaced it pronto and FOC to boot. :lol:

Right, think I've gotcha. Yes I agree the bill should be itemised.

A problem can, and does, occur when people expect equipment they've bought to be fitted by someone else. If there is a subsequent problem and it is down to the parts there can be bad feeling when the tradesman says it's their responsibilty not his/hers. If the parts were supplied by the trader...

Do you mean they don't bother to change them for new intake? :?:

Scuse my dimness, are you saying, 'why not' as in yes secure should charge extra, or the opposite?

I completely agree. Going back to my friends Car spares shop I never cease to be amazed at people who will spend £300+ pounds on a stereo or £150 on speakers but when told decent quality new brake shoes will cost £25 -£30 say "got anything cheaper, it's only the wife's runaround" or "nah I'll...

On the subject of wholesalers selling retail... I thought there were restrictions on this as they do not usually pay the same level of local authority charges as retailers? A friend who owns a Car spares shop had a similar problem when a new factors opened nearby. They were selling to public...

If it's that bad I recommend filling the worst bits and then covering with medium duty lining paper. It might look pretty awful otherwise, I speak from personal experience here. "you want to put lining paper up before you paint it" they said "nah, it'll be fine if i fill it carefully" says I. It...

Dunno about the regs but I replaced a standard JB under a bathroom floor not that long ago. When I opened it the terminals were green and corroded so I guessed water had somehow got in? Ideally I would have liked to have run a new cable to do away with it altogether but it was not possible so I...

Thank you for checking, I was 'fairly' certain it wasn't Vbulletin being used but wasn't entirely sure which system was. Sorry if I came over as being egotistical, didn't mean to appear that way. Just get a bit peed off (hence carried away) with the superior attitude of a tiny minority of...

You quite sure it's vBulletin?? Can anyone else confirm this? :(

You sure it isn't your Dad who's the contractor? Or are you always this juvenile? phpBB 2.0 ish at a guess. Whaddo I win?

??? Why? Is it a quiz? Do I win a prize if I get it right? :roll:

Oh I doubt there's anything much you can teach me about forums or how to use them, but thanks for the input. Perhaps you might choose a more valid analogy next time you decide to use one.
