Thanks Jackrae.

Hi. I'm looking to replace an electric fire with a gas fire. Can you get gas fires that you can connect a flue onto as I have no chimney. Thanks.

Ok. I just don't want this building up again and having to pay for another engineer. Thanks.

I spoke with the technical department and he gave me some things to get the engineer to check. He took the main panel off and fired it up and it was still doing the same, but when he pulled the condensation pipe off the condensing heat exchanger it was blocked with small grey filings. He...

Thanks. I'll give them a call.

Hi. I started having problems with my boiler about 2 weeks ago. The boiler was coming on for a few minutes and then the fault lights flashed cutting the boiler off for about 20 minutes before doing the exact same thing. I noticed it was reaching about 40 degrees before switching off. It was...

Hi. I would like to sand down my wood worktops and re oil them. I have had them now for about six years and they are looking a bit rough. I'm using an orbital sander, but the paper is clogging up every minute or so. What is the best way to strip the surface prior to sanding. Thanks.

Thanks 333rocky33. One of the sets have 3 coming out and the other set only has two. There probably is no way then. Cheers.

Hi. I have bought a set of string led Christmas lights and connected them up to a plug to come on automatically. However every time they turn on, they go through the different sequences and the only way to keep them static is to physically press the button. They are outside and come on whilst...

Hi. I am looking for a few pieces of furniture made from Sheesham wood, but I'm having trouble finding each piece to match. I don't have any experience with woodworking, so do not know the difference between a manufacturer and a small furniture maker. I would like to know, firstly if the...

Thanks all.

Hi. I've recently bought a second hand Hilti cordless drill off a friend, but he had broken the charger and it now doesn't work. He told me that it can be charged with any battery charger, it just needs to be hooked up properly. I've just had a look and can only find someone charging it...

I was thinking of routing the strings, but with the stair kit I've bought it say's there's no need, triangle pieces of softwood have come with it and it says to fix these for each step. Is routing out much better? I would have definitely done it if the stairs were being used more often. I...

I'm making stairs in my garage. I know it would be cheaper to buy them or pay somebody, but it's more of a hobby as well. I'd like to learn how to do more things with a router. The other thing I'd like to check is, if I want to put a groove under the step for the riser to slot in, would I...

Ok, I'll stick with what you first advised and sand it down after. Thanks for your help Ian.

Ok. The reason I asked is because I saw this diagram http://www.onboardwithmarkcorke.com/.a/6a010536216f64970b01675fda359a970b-400wi If I were to buy this http://www.infinitytools.com/images/00-545.jpg Does it have to be used in a table router? Thanks.

Thanks Ian. It's 25mm MDF. Does the bearing need to be chamfered, so it doesn't create a step. Cheers.

Hi. Can someone please tell me the best way of putting a bullnose on the edge of MDF? I have a router, but haven't got a jig. I have had a quick look at ways of doing it, but I'm still not 100% sure of the best way. Thanks.

Hi. I was told that my machine (which is 500 litres per hour) was sufficient. The grease is baked on, so it's not soft. It's not getting the rust off properly either. I was told about breathing the sand dust in when I was thinking of getting a sand blaster for my compressor. They said...

Hi. I have a Nilfisk E130.2 pressure and would like to know if it can lose pressure. When I use the normal fitting, the power seems consistent, but when I use the dirt blaster fitting, the power comes and goes. I did buy a new fitting about a year ago and I could tell the difference in...
