Eye need some M12 x90mm and M6x 80mm. Can't get the M12 local so need ter order them from iron mongary direct. But their pic only shows part fred so if I can't find the right lemf then I will need ter cut em short. A full fred would be handy if that wur ter appen.
Just had a look on Screwfix and yes the lengths you want are v short for that diameter.
Also none were stainless.:(:(:(
 
Day 4 of Scaffold-tower-torture is complete; and so is the Gable End (almost).
I have put 2 coats of the required paints on all of it ...except for the 2 new wooden trimming pieces I had to wood-butcher this morning to replace their rotted-away predecessors.
I will get a coat of gloss on them tomorrow. I can then reduce the height of the tower and move it to either side of the bay-windows to do the walls (and clear the blocked gutter on the RH side).
The under-gable boarding needs a scrape/key and re-paint. Herself wants it BLACK this time (and you know what they say ;)). I am running out of time. The tower hire ends Monday PM. :eek:

Just sat out on the patio (went for a wee in the gravel too:D)
Our sky is huuuuugggggeeee. I wish I could work out how to take a good pic.

Happy weekend coming :)

Often a problem conveying scale in a picture. You need an object like a yuman being to relate the size of it all to. You could try getting up high someplace and using a wide angle lense on your digital SLR.
Well that's what I'd do cept I don't think i have such a lense. Never used the one i had for my film camera much!
If you iz cleverer than me you might be able to do one of thoses stitch-it-together panorama picutres. I've never managed to work out how to do it.
Pop over to the Photography Thread and ask all the brainy buggres there, I would!
Then put em up sos we can all see em!:):):):):)
Have a lovely weekend!
 
If i didn't know better I'd say you were extracting the p!!
Only extracting it from the cnuts who can't tell a jeep from an LR and think we are the ones doing all the harm when iif it wasn't for GLASS members a lot of Green Lanes would be unwalkable, and they will insist on calling it "going off-road" ignoramuses!
Or is that "ignorami"?
 
Anyway, wifey stopped throwing up last nite but is still feeling sh!t so currently asleep ont sofa. Me keeping quiet but have at least finished wood-bashing and now looking forward, not, to the necessary painting. (Hate it!:(:(:()
