    Furniture Restoration Timber For Sale

    that sounds a good idea.... I think the mahogany leaves might be usable for that as being so old would be very stable. I will take a look and see what forums are around. Thank you :)

    lol I used to have access to a field and burned a load of stuff, sadly no longer so its actually not that easy to dispose of things you dont want. I think you would be hard pushed to put a dining leaf on that fire :D

    best glue for metal

    from B and Q and 2 pack, which ones the best for metal? I have to glue a metal clock hand to something metal and will have approx 2 to 3mm overlap. I have used the black araldite (for metal) one but it seems a bit rubbery. Someone else says Araldite Rapid is best as it goes harder the joint...

    interested in your experiences paying for tradespeople

    I got no issue with regulation but if someone is going to be regulated and charge a premium price as a result of that then make sure we consumers get what we pay for. I had an aged combi break down 4 yrs ago. Got a gas safe guy out, he said boiler was scrap and quoted me £1K (all in) to...

    interested in your experiences paying for tradespeople

    so back on subject :) I find gas safe guys the most tricky to handle. Have dealt with some lovely people but also some horrors. Dealing with these people can be truly expensive but I have come to the conclusion that its better to pay a higher price in return for a fast and efficient service.
