    Replacing large lifting garage door with timber partition and normal door.

    We used composite deck boards on a previous garage threshold .. a selection of damaged/mis-matched colour (although they were all sold as 'grey') from our local shed. A few may have had some chips out of them as well, but we went two boards high. I think they worked out at around £5 per piece...

    Panel optimiser?

    Electric/small/portable air compressor

    Ryobi (whilst battery operated, so technically only using the mains inverter as a charge source) also do a hvlp type of pump for air beds and kids toys like footballs. Much lower air pressure so less of a danger, but I've no idea on the CFM output to know if it's enough to do the job in hand.

    Erbauer thickness planer motor.

    Erbauer tools used to come with something like a three year rtb warranty. If that model is sold by Screwfix, they may be able to advise on if/how to return it, or offer the returns contact details. The side plate has the detail required. I looked at this as well, but decided that the punt...

    Rant about screwfix

    The lass covering Jeremy Vines radio show on Friday (iirc) had somebody on from one of the networks. They were saying to switch off messaging preview, ensure the phone is set to lock and require a PIN as a minimum or even biometrics (eye scan, face recognition, or fingerprint), and a PIN for the...

    Moving workshop/transporting machines - any tips??

    Take a look on the back of the Hertz 24/7 vans. Mid wheelbase, hi-top transit. 3,500kg mass on the road, which has a 1391kg load capacity. That includes driver and mate/missus/kids/whatever. Then look at the VW Crafter 35 Luton we have at work. Same road weight of 3,500kg. But a load capacity...
