    OSB

    Thanks. I made a small temporary chicken coop in a hurry one afternoon 2 or 3 years ago I can't remember. Since it was only temporary I didn't treat or paint it at all. It caught my eye the other day and I looked it over. It is in surprisingly good nick. That started me wondering why it's not...

    Has anyone used OSB outside for any length of time? If so what did you paint it with and were you happy with the outcome?

    Remember your first....

    I remember my first proper 56 hr week labouring job at the tender age of fourteen. Working along side so called men, who berated and bantered whether the job was well done or not and were also not averse to some physical persuasion. A well what doesn't kill you makes you stronger.

    New EU power tool battery rules from 2025

    Seems like a good idea, but in reality they will offer to repair the item for the same cost as a new one.

    Lidl's quibble quibble 3 year tool guarantee

    You highlight another point, I believe some of these tools, obviously not those with a three year guarantee, are made to fail in a short time. Sometimes you can fix the Achilles heel, and have a passable tool for many years. Not a woodwork tool but the principle is the same. Over 40 years ago...

    Lidl's quibble quibble 3 year tool guarantee

    But if it is sold with a 3 yr guarantee, then the guarantee should be honoured, otherwise it's fraud, plain and simple. I've had a couple of parts replaced under the Lidl 3 yr guarantee with no problem. Perhaps the ops problem was intermittent and didn't show up when he returned it. He didn't...

    Power washer service

    I went ahead and did it last night. Used it for a half hour or so then drained the hot oil out, let it drip a while. Then I added the appropriate amount of kero and ran it for 15 seconds before draining again. It was quite dark, I left it overnight and there wqs dark gritty sediment on the...

    I'd have thought, in seven years you could have come up with a better comeback than that. Just joking. :)

    Power washer service

    I bought a cheap Chinese power washer, 3600psi. It's actually performing quite well. I've attached a passage from the manual which recommends the first oil change after 20 hours running. I'm in or about that now however I've never heard of flushing with kerosene before, is that a thing?

    Removing paint from cement

    Yes. That looks good, should stay level unlike a angle grinder.
