John, I fully we’ll know a twin skin cavity wall will be much better but this is a shed. No need for it IMO. A couple of vents to keep air circulating will do me fine. Just really want to know from one of the pros if a medium block would be okay seams it’s single story. Cheers.

Couldn’t be any worse than the timber one currently there :-D

I’m thinking of building a brick built shed and then over cladding the 2 visible sides with some nice timbers. Question is what blocks would best suit this sort of build and is a single skin okay? Thanks in advance!

So I was thinking of getting a 1/2 inch adaptor in the makita but sounds like that’s not the best idea? If so that throws it all in the air! So I’m thinking to get the £250 Brushless kit with 2 3ah batteries and a separate 1/2 inch impact gun for car use. Sounds like a good idea? Cheers for...

Cheers for the reply. The key thing I really want is good torque especially on the impact as I hope to use that on an old project car so want a bit of beef behind it. Then I think I may aswell go brushless then it all spirals out of control and I’m looking at spending £350

Seams brushless is obviously better maybe I should just go all out and get this kit? I’m quite keen on having more torque on the tools, ideally want to get a really good set that will basically last me DIYing for many years to come!

Thanks for the reply Sammy. I’d ony ever use them for DIY and know there’s a better brushless kit on the market. I suppose I’m mainly going by price and the main think that’s got me thinking is do I forfeit the brushless to have more power in the brushed?

You need L,N, 1 & 3. Best to wait till someone can fit for you if you need to access inside the boiler.

There are electrical checks you can do but I don’t want to be held responsible for you electrocuting yourself! Best thing to do is feel for a hot pipe after the valves. You’ll then know which of opening when it shouldn’t. Very common for an actuator to supply 240 when it shouldn’t.

After some knowledgable advise please. I’m looking to buy a new drill set and have decided on Makita. The brushed set is more expensive than the brushless probably because of the batteries but it also states a greater Nm force than the brushless. What’s a better set in terms of power? Thanks.

The fence used as shed could be separated from the rest of the fence but posts would also be extended and joined to roof then to garage so is anything I’d be stabilising it I think. I’ll get some pictures later.

I’m looking to build a shed on some wasted land behind my garage. It’s 6m long and 1.8m wide with a 4’ close board fence on the boundary. Now, I know this is a bodge but can I use the exciting fence as half the wall, extend the posts to desired height and have the top half shiplap? I intend on...

The best thing you could do is get rid of that roof and build a nice fresh safe one.

I have version 9.52 or something like that so that’s perfect. Thanks for the tip. I can’t get the wireless keypad ordered now.

Perfect thanks mate. I’ll check it later.

Was fitted last year.

Guys, I had my enforcer professional fitted last year and I’d now like to add a wireless keypad. I’ve had a look on MAP Security and the one they sell is for firmware 9.5 and above. Is there a way to tell what my firmware is? Is it relatively easy to pair the new keypad? I do have the engineer...

Just looking for a little advise on where the pros would position cameras round my property please. I have a 4 channel system and have a attached a rough plan of my property, doors are the solid lines. I’d ideally like to have one that captures the front door and Garage (up/over and side door)...

The points do work but the wife was told the signal is 34/40. I have no idea whatever that means. There's no magic eye as of yet. We want to connect one up to the sky box. I am going to get some more quotes just thought I'd ask you helpful guys here as well.

The wife had an Aerial guy out today, mainly to add a feed to a bedroom and run a cable for a magic eye to our bedroom. We have multiple TV points and the wife was told the signals running on 34 out of 40??? What ever that is. Good/bad does anyone know? The advise was the whole lot has had it...
