Geo - once the grime is off use the old window cleaners trick ... buff with crunched-up newspaper. It really does work and you'll be amazed at how clear the glass will appear.

fairisle - I had a Worcester-Bosch Greenstar FS 42CDi Regular (FS for floor standing) installed a couple of years ago and I'm very pleased with its performance/efficiency/running cost. It replaced a floor standing oil boiler. The installation was what they called 'semi-sealed'. The only...

Jive - create the same T effect using two angle sections (L shaped) butted together. Consider positioning a thin strip (rectangular) of similar material sandwiched between the Ls and set slightly back to create a 'shadow line'. The aim is to make a feature of the join not to produce something...

Is this going towards your final exam mark ... coursework? I so then this is the wrong approach ... some call it design by Argus catalogue. What you need to do is break down what is the purpose of each element of the unit: for example, what needs to be stored and alternative ways of doing...

1day - garage below!... then also consider putting in some suitable insulation

jason - some years ago I did what you're proposing. I had a roll of plastic dpc (150mm wide black stuff), cut enough for each drop, top and base. Folded each piece length-wise, making them 75mm wide then pop-riveted them to the inside face of the door ... I used flat washers against the...

sparky - use a grey felt pen ... a fine tip.

Nah ... it's static from the boat as it sloshes through the water.

Now, now Andy ... no need to introduce smut!

or a brush outlet plate like this:

Only affect her 'gibblets' :lol:

She always insists on Duracell batteries 'cos the TV ads say they last longer :shock:

I've just had a 305dia x 80T TCT DeWalt blade sharpened for £14.40. Dropped it into my local builders merchant/timber yard (Ray Graham in Newtownards NI) last Wednesday and picked it up after a week. Oh, and whilst there bought 2 lambsfoot pocket knives for £5.95 each (Rosewood handles!!!) ...

john - glazed quarry tile are impervious so it's a waste of time dunking them in water.

Mrs Symptoms has mentioned a tingling sensation when using her battery powered 'health aid' in the bath :lol:

mad - if you really do need to nudge the odd board over then use the old screwdriver (or chisel) trick: At the offending position drive the tip of a screwdriver into the side of the joist (maybe 50mm below the joist top) and use the length of the screwdriver as a lever to ease the f/bd over...
