    Sash window pulley with ball bearings

    After time, wouldn't you get the 'sqweeeeeek' as you worked it open or close, with no bearings in the pulley? Dust and time have it's affects, I guess.

    Ronseal Shed & Fence Wood Preservative

    I got a tin of this for £13 from the local diy shop; Applied 3 even coats with 12hrs drying time in between, on 12mm ply board, and it's been 5 months since; looks liek I did it yesterday! ... and seeing the rain run off in beads, makes me smile :)

    Outdoor cable cover thing...

    I knew I should have checked before I sent the picture! :/ It's an American web page, sorry. http://www.cableorganizer.com/surface-raceways/wire-guards.htm One option would be to improvise with a half round rain gutter cut to your desired length?

    Aluminium Marked by Caustic Soda

    Some wheel cleaners work OK, but beware; some so-called aluminium wheel cleaners are only for cleaning the proctective laquer or clear powder coating and aren't actually designed to work on bare aluminium. A neutralising wash of dilute acetic acid (or ordinary household white vinegar) is...

    Asbestos?

    Is it a possibility that while they were loading their vans, some of their rubbish fell out? Rubbish from another job maybe?

    Rangemaster classic 90 gas hobs

    A random thought.... Would Curry's be of any help, you think? They must have a database of some kind with all the part numbers etc? Worth a try?

    Steel double glassed frame replacement glass

    So all you have holding the DG glass is rubber strips? If these are same as my shopfront windows, then all you need is a Flat putty knife something similar. Push it between the glass and seal and pry away, as you gently work along a small length of the seal. Best to start in the corner, and at...

    Best exterior wood paint

    I can say one thing for sure, that Johnstone's exterior paint is well worth the buy. It's not as expensive paint either, but applied correctly it has a long life. Any chance you could take a picture for us? Ideally, you need to remove all that loose paint and sand down what is left, clean all...

    Clear waterproofing for outdoor workshop

    Hi Zarch. If you ever have the time on a weekend, have a look into this. https://m.youtube.com/watch?list=PLfrAA2F5Reqa7yfflTyoywVAYUjL7qm3Y&v=4BAHx0KBpT4 I'd much rather make my own than a brand named product, IF I had the time and patience. I'd make a thinner version and brush it in.

    How to quieten a noisy mains pipe?

    Hey Nick. Regarding the noise? Is it a gushing noise? Or are you referring to the pipes shuddering when the water taps are opened upstairs? Either way, I'd recommend you having a quick chin wag with the upstairs people? Ask them if they are having any problems too with the mains noise; is...

    Milwaulkee ONE-KEY - future tense or nonsense?

    Wire free charging? With the lithium battery pack modified to a mobile phone like slim battery pack? Wouldn't work. The 'lump' battery at the bottom of the impact drill has it's major advantages with the balance of the drill, so how it would work with a slim line lithium battery pack, wouldn't...
