Scanned the posts and cant seem to work my dumb question out. All it is is this. I've got to knock through into the extension i've built but all that puzzles me is this: Am i right in assuming you insert your acros and strong boys higher than where the top of the steel will be (otherwise you...

What if i was to do the new flat roof as normal, but to bond the two roofs maybe put a three layer strip overlapping them. What do you think

HI, does anyone know if the plate compactors you can buy on the net for a couple of hundred quid are any good. They are the c60 model you can buy on ebay. I want to try instead of spending 600 on a belle, but at the same time i dont want to be wasting my money either. So if anyone can share any...
