Agree with the Victorian. Belgium. everyone was in grey/dark clothing and no attractive woman! The beer was canny though!

cheers andy

Thanks HERTSDRAINAGE2010 Do you think that would make a massive difference. I was going seal the gaps @ skirting board anyway & use duct tape over the joins (the floorboards are T&G) so will be more gapped after cutting. cheers

Hello, thanks for the response. The asbestos looks OK and is held in with large screws with large washers. Guess it must be for fireproofing. But yes if it cracks, then trouble! I think by the time I battened out a frame, I could have the floor boards up etc. I'm hoping not lift them all...

Hi Taylortwocities. Yep, did all that and its just not budging. The light sabre would defo do irreparable damage me thinks. And its Darth owing to the snoring, allegedly !

Thanks John,yes assuming its a normal thread, given that its got a LH thread screw, then assume it must be. Cheers.

Thanks all. The chuck jaws are broke, so cant put allen key in. Have tried with stilsons and knocking down, but no good.

Hi All, I am shortly to insulate the floor space in a bedroom, which is partly over a garage and hence is a cold room. Do I: A) insulate in-between the joists (some floorboards up etc) with loft type roll insulation or.. B) Glue kingspan type board to the underside of the garage roof...

Hi All, Any idea how to remove broken chuck. I have removed the LH thread screw, but cant get the chuck off? Thanks,

Thanks Tony. I thought there appeared to something inside the threaded protrusions on the valves.

Hello. I have a leaking pump on a an Vaillant eco tec pro 28. Can anyone advise if the radiator flow and return pipes can be isolated at the boiler. The valves on the ends, I say valves because that's what they look like, but there doesn't appear to be any where that the can be actually...

I know, a real pain. Cables been in for about 4 years!! javascript:emoticon(':oops:')

Well I'm s******d then ! I'm confident that all the work has been carried out to a very high standard. I am very DIY competent, and used to do electrical work for a living many years ago.

I guess I will have to get that done by someone qualified.

Hi Adam, thanks for the reply. If you see my original post, you will see a lot more info re length of cable run etc etc

Thanks for reply. There are no extraneous conductive parts. I have used piranha nuts, and have a solid connection to the brass gland. So I'm happy to still export the earth, especially now I have researched that the csa is large enough on the 2 core 6mm/2

Hi, http://www.diynot.com/forums/electrics/log-cabin-electrics.289012/ In regard to the above, I'm cracking on with the wiring. I have a http://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Products/CPR026P.html installed, with a 6 amp mcb for one light, and a 20 amp mcb for 4 sockets (2.5m2 t&e) radial...

Hello All, Just getting on with the electrics now re. this post. Just stripped the armoured cable, and its two core not three!! (I was advised it was three core, when I got it) This now means I will be using the swa as the earthing. Will this impact the 'exporting of the earth'...

Thanks again for input. The double doors on the cabin do swing open partly onto lawn, which is being dug out and leveled for a couple of flagstones, directly in front of the doors, for access to cabin from the lawn. The main base is all on the concrete pad.

Thanks for the response John. Would it be prudent to install a ceiling pull cord switch for the light. I don't really wish to have switch too far away from the door, especially on dark winter nights. I'll be sure to site sockets well away from the door, and will use all plastic back boxes.
