Bump I'd quite like to see that as well Lee.

If you know a plumber who has one of these, you might block up one end and then pump water in and force the wall back out. Lee.

I used to tell apprentices ~ a fuse stops fires ~usually an rcd stops it killing you ~ hopefully The "Earth" makes the fuse work After that I'd say, " look in the On Site Guide" Lee.

Might just be me but I prefer SWA in workshop environments as it is tough enough to withstand knocks etc, T&E is a bit fragile The other thing about SWA is it can carry a bit more and if you use the wire armour as the earth you get a really big cross sectional area and you can get the Zs...

Why d'you want to connect t&e to the swa? I use metal adaptable boxes, fix the gland to the box and leave the cable long enough to go through the box and connect to your consumer unit. I'd prefer to use a henly block, into a switch fuse, SWA out to consumer unit in the garage and use...

why don't you get some advice from the spark who will test the job? As its to an out building the first thing to look at is the earthing arrangement some elec suplliers don't let you "export the earth" the cable required depends on Maximum demand The length of the run out to the shed The...

Bob, Excellent write up, could be a classic in the making :) Thanks Lee

Many thanks for today Jon. Lee.

Hi, is it too late to get in on this bash? Not been on this forum for a while BTW, I have a diamond dressing tool for a Tormek :wink: Lee

I have a 9" table saw similar to this, mine does not have the table wings and the other thing is, mines in bits as I was doing it up when a bargain Wadkin came up. Made in the USA,by Craftsman, in the mid 60's, cast iron top, tilt arbour 5/8", decent rip fence Got to go as I'm having a...

Ref, new wheel for Tormek, has anyone tried a diamond wheel like this? http://www.t-jtools.co.uk/ The Tormek wheel is the red one. Lee.

Thanks for the invite Dan, a good day out. I can see me trading up from Records and Stanley after trying some of those Veritas, Philly and Lie Nielsons. Is this the start of the of the slope? Lee.

A man rushes into a bank wearing a balaclava and waving a pistol, "EVERYONE ON THE FLOOR, NOW!!" he shouts as he fires two shots into the ceiling. In a panic everyone in the banks drops to the floor. The thief empties the cash drawers into a bag and is making for the door when a customer...

They broke in through the side of the locks on the drivers door and the side door, screwdriver job, made a right mess. I think they were able to see into the door and open it, the plates (2mm S/S, studs welded to the back) covered up the holes / wrecked door skin. The other thing was that I...

When I get my next van probably a VW transporter again, I think I'll rack out the side door for tools and leave the rest for gear. Over the years I have had a few vans and always meant to rack them out properly. It's tempting to leave tools in as it's a pain to load all the time but thieves...

How about a hand grinder like this fix it in the van or...............a belt sander? Lee

Cheers Dan, see you then. Lee.

I'd very much like to come along, you're about an hour from me, I am though, a proper newb. Could I bring a few hand tools to get an idea on how to set them up? if there is time. Or I could stand at the back and just watch and learn :wink: Lee.

One thing I notice while installing these alarms is if they are really loud inside you can use a standard bell box/strobe outside, 3 sound bombs make a right din you can feel the pressure waves on your ears. My thinking on this is alarms are too quiet! with double glazing you can hardly hear...

I've installed a few alarms in houses, garages, an workshops large and small, A few of these have been "tested" by the people they are designed to keep out, thankfully they didn't even get inside before the alarm went off. Unless you want to spring for really good cameras, digital recorder and...
