I appreciate this is not what you want to hear, but a DIYer or amateur is not going to buy this TIG plant, and the people that will buy this plant will know what they need to make it a fully functional machine. For example, welders will have their own preferences for the type of torch they use...

Why do you think you need the 'Ready Pak' in order to sell the TIG plant. The 'Ready Pak' is the TIG plant you already have along with a water cooler for a water cooled torch, the torch and cable, a gas valve, ground cable, pedal, wheeled cart etc. This is not a DIY welding plant. It's 3 phase...

Let's also hope that Labour party realise that allowing Mandelson back was a particularly stupid idea, and therefore don't allow a comeback from Angela Raynor.

Matt Goodwin is trying to frame the by-election as a referendum on Starmer and the labour government in general, as well as focusing on local issues. Seeing as it's been a safe Labour seat for a long time and he's going around knocking on doors and actually talking to the locals rather than...

Yep, they do that every year at least once. Usually on Holocaust memorial day. So clearly, they've lost any argument they're ever involved in. FFS when 6 million of your religious ancestors are killed in the most organised extermination the world has ever seen, i think they have the right to...

Looks like an old air vent to me. Its in the wrong place to be an ash pit. Either way, i'd give it a smack or two with a lump hammer to see how secure it is. If it's loose, take it out. If it doesn't move, cut it flush with an angle grinder.

Old acetylene bottles are still dangerous, even when empty. The acetylene was dissolved in acetone so the acetone will still be in the bottle and old acetylene bottles can also contain asbestos as part of the matrix that the acetone was absorbed into. Whatever you do, don't try to cut it up!

We recruit graduates and non graduates for the same engineering and project management related jobs. I'd take someone with 3 years relevant work experience over someone fresh out of university with a relevant degree every time. The only time that changes is if the graduate has done a decent...

I'd buy a test kit on line to send off a sample rather than bring in an asbestos specialist at this point. Even if it is asbestos, the best thing you can do is cover it back up again. If it does turn out be asbestos, don't panic. You've cleaned up any release of fibres and a one off small...

Interesting you felt safe. I used to live in West London, left approx 20 years ago, but still know the city well. We go to visit friends or just do London stuff fairly regularly, and went down for the day between Christmas and new year. We were in the St Pancras, Covent Garden, South Ken, and...

Do you really want tank stored cold water as your kitchen supply?

Where you have the skirting returning around the corner and under the unit, i'd have mitred a full height section of skirting and then notched it under the cabinet so that the chamfered section of the skirting returned around the corner. Edit: just seen in your original post that you tried that...

Personally, I’d stick with what you’ve got. I don’t think you make any noticeable savings, in fact you’ll probably find it costs you more to run as a big boiler is much less efficient than a small one when the big one is running with low loads.

You can buy a proper pipe bender for £40-50. A bent bend is always going to be less likely to leak than any type of connection. Pipe bending springs are complete rubbish in my opinion, and you can only use them if the bend is near a pipe end.

93% at 9.9 degrees in the loft and 84% outside at 7 degrees indicates to me a lack of ventilation, hence the higher temperature in the loft. With decent ventilation and good insulation the internal and external air temp should be the same. The higher internal humidity may indicate a water...

I suspect you had more heat leakage that you realise, enough to keep the temperature in the loft slightly elevated.

To be fair, that shouldn't have been directed at you personally, so i will edit my post and happily apologise. I was referring to the left in general who are happy to dance on the head of a pin in finding ways to attack Jews, physically, verbally and emotionally, whilst claiming they are...

Yet an attack has been made on a religious group who's only connection to Israel is their common religion. The left accuse people of hate speak and racism when islamist extremists or terrorists are conflated with general muslims, but don't seem willing to apply the same standard when Jews are...

This thread is about the latest atrocity against the Jews. Please, can people show some compassion for people affected by this tragedy and not use if for unrelated local (to the UK) political point scoring. The footage of the brave man (who has turned out be muslim) tackling one of the gunman...

It happened a few months ago. How soon we forget about the ongoing persecution of the Jews.
