That's good to know. The two models I've been looking at are: STIHL HS 45 Blade Length 60 cm / 24" HS 45 or ECHO HC1500 580mm

Dear All, Looking to purchase a petrol hedge trimmer, my budget would be the entry models for either a Echo or Stihl. Could anyone recommend either a Echo or Stihl or one of the many other manufacturers please? Thank you for any replies.

Whoops, 39 was a typo should be been 30 (152 x 152 x 30). Thanks Shytalkz most helpfull info.

Acting as a beam, bearing on piers and supporting wall.

Hello. Would anyone know where I could obtain information regarding max load levels for Universal Columns for free please? The UC would be: 152 x 152 x 23 over a 9ft span and 152 x 152 x 39 over a 9ft span Any info would greatly received. Thank you.

Tested the screws - no reading. To be sure thou I took the plate off. Again no reading on just the earth wires with the neon.

Hi Space Cat, Still here! Yes, I put the other prod on the earth terminal in the back box to get those readings. I didn't try the earth wire with the neon. Cheers.

The good thing with solid wood worktops is that if you do get a ding, dent or scratch you can sand them down and re-oil. The effect is nice with a cream Shaker door, better than a piece of plastic (laminate), not so expensive as granite (which I'm told still needs treating). Oiling takes a...

I've used Liberon Tung Oil on our kitchen worktops (oak) thinned down the first three coats by 50% with white spirit then the final coat neat. I have read that previous finishes should be sanded off. I prefer the finish of Tung to Danish. If you don't want to sand off try the underside...

We have a Festool sander, excellent bit of kit, on the heavy side but well worth the price tag.

Managed to get home from work in daylight today and tried Spacecat's approach. Now working! I was confusing which cable was the two way cable due to the old switch layout compared with the new one. Lesson learn't I think! Just like to thank all that have replied.

Need some tips on using the multimeter I think. Any ideas of how to test the wire I have please? Would the permanent live be the red wire with the strapper (link) as this is the only one that lights the neon electrical screwdriver?

Got my multimeter, have the following readings (colon ":" indicates the the difference between the other two way switch being switched OFF and ON) Left Cable : Two Way switch OFF : Two Way swith ON Black with Red tape : Overload : 67v Red : 67v : Overload Right Cable : Two Way...

Excellent Space cat, I try this method when I get home. Cheers.

Haven't caught a cable and I didn't screw the plate into the back box. The black wires already had red tape on them. One one switch is two way. The red cable with the strapper lights the neon in my electrical screwdiver. That's the only wire to light the neon. Order a multimeter, should...

Ordered a multimeter from Screwfix today. Need to get the correct tools for the job seeing as I've c#cked this up. I'll post my findings.

All the wires are stripped. Had a look at another two way switch in the house and it has the strapper link wire going from a COM on the two way to L2 on the one way. Can't try the last two suggestion yet as the good lady is cooking and previous attempts have fused the electrics. Thanks...

Thanks but can't remember which wires went where now that I've tried so many combinations. This is what I have in the back box now: 1st cable (one way to a single light) has black wire with red tape, red wire and earth wire 2nd cable (two way operates another single light via this...
