    Heavy duty bags to keep tools individually

    Thanks for all the suggestions guys, I ended up getting a couple of second hand tool boxes on ebay and started to get some tstak boxes from dewalt, pretty cool stackable modular options for other tools, I got a pretty good deal at tool station for the drawer options and a couple of medium size...

    Heavy duty bags to keep tools individually

    I would be written outside. cardboard boxes will eventually get ruined, nylon bags or hardcases would be the best way to go for me. Making boxes out of wood would be a bit too far on weight I guess but it could be a viable alternative in the end

    Heavy duty bags to keep tools individually

    As I'm increasing the number of toys I'm buying (often from Lidl), the number of caseless/bagless tools is also growing making it a bit difficult to keep my small storage in order. I've started purchasing more tools that come with case/bag and that has been a really good choice, I can pile...

    Party wall agreement with crazy neighbour and surveyor

    ok, back to paying to surveyors then, I'm going to get a few quotes. Personally I think there is far too much overhead with something that could be much simpler. Money down the drain, but I guess there is no way around it...

    Party wall agreement with crazy neighbour and surveyor

    Just to clarify, the neighbour is not a nice human being. She parked the car blocking the road once because someone parked in front of her house, fire brigade came by knock her door and she didn't answer, she fills wheelie bins with water and leave them on the road to avoid people parking...

    Party wall agreement with crazy neighbour and surveyor

    I'm using the government template, plus how wrong can a notice that you are planning to start to do any work can be anyway? I'm not planning to enter their property, or carry tools with me, I'm going to stick a letter to the door. I think you are taking things a bit out of context

    Party wall agreement with crazy neighbour and surveyor

    I'm planning to server notice again with a neighbour as a witness record video and stick the letter to her door. I don't see the point of appointing a solicitor that will not be able to do anything besides getting money out of this. I guess the best I can do is take pictures, record all notices...

    Party wall agreement with crazy neighbour and surveyor

    Hello! I have a bit of a crazy neighbour that doesn't answer notice letters, doesn't answer the door, and hides away all the time. I cannot get the person to sign my party wall agreement, so I spoke to a surveyor that recommended I get 2 surveyors, one for me and one for the neighbour. I know...

    Fill up gap between door frame and surface of plasterboard

    the door liner was already proper fixed in place, not feasible to remove. I ended up getting 12, 6 and 4mm wood strips so I could cut them and the steps in between I could smooth with a routing tool. It worked fine, just a minimal cosmetic gaps here and there which I'm planning to use some sort...

    Plunge saw buying recommendations £150-250 budget

    I'm planning to start making drawers and building some cabinets, so I would be inclined to get something good. I've no idea how happy/frustrate I'll be by finding it out that I made the wrong decision and having to buy again. There is so much mixed feedback about the cheaper side of the scale...

    Fill up gap between door frame and surface of plasterboard

    I'm thinking about cutting everything to length and use a routing tool with the plasterboard as a guide to do what I have in mind. I forgot I have a routing tool....
