    Cooling and vetilating a garage mezzanine roof space

    Hi everyone, There is a lot of great advice on here about heating and ventilating spaces but I have a slightly different issue to address. I have an timber clad oak framed double garage with workshop extension and in the main garage there is a mezzanine storage area covering 2/3rds of the...

    Solar battery charger

    I'm waiting on one of these WindLily turbines to be delivered (9 months and counting...) mainly because I just like dicking around with things, but it should be good for overnight keeping the 12v system up on my boat and I'm interested in what it will do dunked in the water at 20 knots behind...

    Solar battery charger

    I think the only issue with the amazon example above is the very low 1.8w output? For just a couple of quid more there are 10w panels that will do the job potentially better: amazon example I don't know that particular product but as an example that is reasonable. Also, you might be surprised...

    BUILDING WITH SIPS - ANYONE ANY EXPERIENCE

    I I meant the 8*4 ally protection sheets fixed all along the back wall on the outside - they are all mounted on battens for ventilation in case of any condensation build up. Massive intrusive growth from that poxy hedge had basically destroyed the rubbish old summerhouse that was there when we...

    BUILDING WITH SIPS - ANYONE ANY EXPERIENCE

The exterior grade Hikvision turret cameras are all powered using Power over Ethernet using shielded exterior grade CAT 6 cabling which I have found to...

    Yes exactly - Texas 200, Everglades Challenge, Race To Alaska etc. Starting to plan various options for the SCAR - A basic round the Island and back starting from say Poole or Weymouth would be good intro. Another one could involve going round Hayling Island and IoW but having to go under the...

    Sound Insulation For Workshop

    Thanks very much! I think I'll just get the inside skinned for now and get it usable and then revisit the possible sound proofing once I am functional. Just sorting roof today, the first of the doors and the storage in the rafters so I can get some rubbish off the floor!

    Sound Insulation For Workshop

    Thanks everyone for the speedy replies, I will investigate further. I guess a key thing for me to understand is whether I need to keep airflow on the inside of the out OSB skin or just completely fill it? As the workshop won't be heated and there will always be small gaps around doors and so...

    Sound Insulation For Workshop

    Hi Everyone, New member here and I expect to be visiting a lot as this looks like a great resource. Initially I just have a hopefully simple question with upgrading my boat building workshop. It is built on the concrete pad behind my garage and is 6.6m long and 2.1m (inside measurements)...
