    Replacing a STone effect resin sink.

    I have read several threads referring to the removal of the silicon sealant from Around the Sink unit, all of which do not help me on what I can do to remove a sink unit from a Granite worktop. The original sink was installed by a professional installer and was placed onto an application of the...

    Wall Pipe/Baton Detectors

    I looked at how I could make an easy fix as access was very awkward. I thought a way of repairing a 2mm hole in a copper pipe would be to screw a 'special Copper Solder plated Screw' into the hole and seal with a blow torch an solder but of course such a repair screw is not available. Another...

    Wall Pipe/Baton Detectors

    Thanks for your very helpful and confirmative reply. I have tried a couple of the cheap devices and found them both unreliable and not repeatable. I thought maybe it was I was very much at the cheap end of the market, but I am just a DIYer and didn't want to invest in an expensive device. Your...

    Iron Sulphate as Moss Killer

    Thanks for the advice pidgeon1, but it not what I asked, I have enough feed for 3,400 sq. Met and a 25 kg Bag of Iron Sulphate. I dont need any more fertiliser, I need a spread rate for the Iron Sulphate. Thanks anyway

    Iron Sulphate as Moss Killer

    I posted a question about 10 years ago and unfortunately did not get any meaningful replies, so I will try a new posting and hope someone can advise me. I have had some success with Moss killing with Iron Sulphate granules but that was really guess work with respect to concentration and...

    Wall Pipe/Baton Detectors

    After 60 years of DIYing, and getting away with the inevitable 'Cartoon' disaster of drilling into a water pipe, whilst preparing to mount a shelf unit, it happened. NO excuses on my behalf just an admission of riding my luck for a few more times. Recovered from the disaster and all is back up...

    TimberPro Chainsaw Bar Bolt replacement

    Thanks John, I have just looked at a You Tube Video of the process and the work to replace these bolts is extensive and reveals a ridiculous design. You are right, it involves a full strip down removing the engine, gearbox, Clutch, Fuel tank and even splitting the engine. That amount of work...

    TimberPro Chainsaw Bar Bolt replacement

    I have a TimberPro Chainsaw and the Bar Bolts have either Stripped, or the Securing Nuts Striped or maybe the Bolt Securing grooves have stripped. Whatever the problem is I need to replace the bolts or if the problem is the Nuts being stripped , I need to remove the Nuts. The only way I can...

    Brother HL-1110 printer.

    Thanks for your reply, I can't find any appropriate information on the problem other than Brother stte the cartridges have a rather short shelf Life and mine is aot over that time. I think the toner supply is an estimated one based on Pages printed. I will get a new toner cartridge and see what...

    Brother HL-1110 printer.

    I tend to agree with the page counter suggestion although I cant find any reference to it in the manuals. I did note the cartridges have a rather short shelf life once the packaging is opened. Mine has certainly expired its stated shelf life by a considerable margin, so I assume my problem os...

    Brother HL-1110 printer.

    I have had a Brother HL-1110 printer for a few years, it does all I want in that I get reasonable documentation prints. It is of course a Laser Mono Chrome printer, but recently the printing has started to fade quite badly, being worse at the extremities (L-R)of the printed page. Obviously the...

    Reading Smart Meter

    Although absolutely reliable, it appears some of the 'Big Six' suppliers, particularly E-ON, don't seem to know how to read them correctly remotely if the meter was installed by another supplier and in my case seem to be reading a register that is for multiple Tariff accounts. I was perfectly...

    Reading Smart Meter

    Now that proposition is concerning, although the problem of supply and demand is a real problem and has to be addressed either by increasing supply or regulating demand. Supply is not limitless.

    Reading Smart Meter

    I totally agree JBR, I resisted it until my old Disc type 'Steam driven' meter just stopped working and had to replaced and that resulted in the installation of the Smart Meter which was not fit for purpose and not sufficiently reliable or operationally suitable for the market. My view has not...

    OFGEM may be the route to go as clearly E-ON dont seem to have any idea what so ever. Thanks for your comments

    Reading Smart Meter

    I agree 100% with everything you say. I was on the phone for Over 2 hours to an E-ON Metering system expert, I sent photographs of my Meter showing the meter reference identity No. and its screen reading and still this guy came back with a load of Gobble-de-gook which was totally none...
