It wasn't too bad, my walls arent the most level so I had to do a little faffing. It's 6mm glass, and being frameless it feels a little flimsy if I'm being honest, I wouldn't like to slip and fall full weight into it put it that way. It doesn't help that the strenghening brackets at the top are...

Getting there now, I won’t show you the opposite side Slightly disappointed with the vanity unit which in a Monza unit from Victorian Plumbing (couldn’t bring myself to pay over £1k for a Villeroy & Boch). It’s nice enough and feels solid, but the sink is siliconed in place, and you cannot...

Happy with the result, and glad the mosaic failed, think it looks better. As it’s having a normal I cubicle think the pattern works well as the outer grout lines will be covered, and it’s a mirror image from the corner. Other than the odd grout line being slightly uneven it’s pretty much...

Thanks a lot Yes it’s down now, and it certainly ain’t coming back up I needed an offset drain unfortunately due to joists being in way

Thanks. Yes I did discuss this when buying the tiles. The glazed tiles will no doubt be slippery when wet (think they are R9), the shop said suitable for floor but not shower floor. There will be a few bath mats in there to stand on when getting out of the bath or the shower so I’m not too...

Haha, don’t mention mosaics to me !!! That was the plan, but it was quickly turning into a disaster, and I aborted before the quick set started to go off because if it had set, it really would have been a disaster. I ended up pulling them up and cleaning the adhesive off tray. I think the...

Hi all, currently on with my first bathroom project, and definitely first time I’ve done tiling, and all going pretty well so far to say I’m only YouTube certified. I’m about to tile my shower tray which is a wet room type tray, but it will have a fully enclosed square cubicle, as the room is...

Hi everyone, I am currently doing a wet room project. I have purcashed foam core backer boards, 10mm for walls and 6mm for floor for The Wetroom Store. In the instructions one method of fixing the boards to solid walls is tile adhesive, and attach in a brickwork pattern. I have Mapei Keraquick...

Thanks you've been a great help. My plan was to make a nylon bung for the square branch, I'm a mech engineer and have access to millers, lathes etc so was going to machine a bung to fit, with a 32mm hole for the waste pipe, then silicone it in. The other option I have other than this is to tee...

Thanks for this, as mentioned it's going to be difficult to do it any differently. I fitted the AAV yesterday (I soon realised they need to be upright so found a way of doing this) and then tested draining the bath water, I got no gurgling/siphoning and the shower trap maintained a water seal...

Hi, I am currently fitting a bathroom, my shower and bath are tee'd to the same waste pipe with a sweeping tee piece, and there no other way of doing it really without making more big holes in walls and joists. Siphoning didn't seem to be a big issue on my old bath and shower but I've fitted...

All sorted, wow what a F about that was. I gave up on the laptop, my brother is an IT tecnician so I took the new WD Purple HDD to him and he plugged it in. The drive was in two partitions/volumes out of the box, 2.5 TB and 5.5 TB (or thereabouts), why would this be ? Is this normal on this type...

It's now connecting to the laptop, but just seems to be going round in circles..... "Connecting client success" "Transmitting file" "Connecting client success" "Transmitting file" "Connecting client success" "Transmitting file" Not those exact words but you get the point. Does the same on both...

I bought the hard drive from Broadband Buyer, can't see anything abnormal looking on the PCB

It's started booting on the old drive now, the firmware hasn't updated it just decided to start working. But I shut it down, switched it off and fitted the new drive again but it won't boot on the new drive. Bloody thing.

No, tried booting with old HDD and no HDD. When I unplugged the hard drive at first it looked like it was going to boot, it started beeping, and the start page loaded but then it went blank. The model is DS-7608NI-K2/8P

Hi all. Purchased a WD Purple Pro 8tb HDD and I have gone to install it, but my NVR is seemingly bricked. It was working absolutely fine, other than showing that the HDD was faulty. I shut the NVR down properly, swapped the hard drive and since then it doesn't boot. It turns on, but thats it. I...

Thank you, much appreciated. I think I will just go with another purple to be honest, less than £100 for a 4TB isn't bad at all. To be honest the drive is still working, it's just the NVR woke me up in the middle of the night beeping, and it's showing bad sectors. I keep it in the loft, it can...

Thanks, I've had a Red in my Synology NAS for years. However, this is for a CCTV NVR recorder so purely for surveillance.

Hi all, looks like the HDD in my Hikvision NVR is goosed. It's a WD Purple 3TB and it's less than 4 years old so a bit disappointed. Just wondering if anyone can recommend a relaible 4 - 6TB HDD? I've been trawling various forums it sounds like some use enterprise grade drives such as WD Gold...
