Does yer pinch the seeds offit before the burds get them, to grow more sun flours?

Magpies? We have some squizzles near work that are plagued by maggies sometimes ...

My 15mm pipe bender doesn't do tight bends, only similar to the one in the picture that's why I thought 10mm pipe would be better, My brake pipe bender does 10mm so pipe should be hidden under the radiator, I'll paint the exposed pipe to match...

Not sure what that valve is there for, temp fitting? while work being done? Personally I would just take it back to the trunking and go from there neatly with 15mm. but then I have a nice pipe bender that could get from the trunking to the rad...

I finished the plastering because it wasn't straight Plumber and joiner fitted skirting and radiator on same morning working together I've since replaced the architrave and now replacing skirting and tidying plumbing up

Plasterer or plumber?

This is the wonderfull job workmen did after plastering the walls 🤔

Saw that on tinter web, but "er indoors wouldn't let me go :rolleyes:

Your right I spose I don't like compression joints on show so rather than solder a bend in I was thinking I can get a tighter bend in the micropipe so it looks neater. I also have a part roll of micro pipe in the shed and the rad needs a new...

Tidied part of me garage this morning to a (very) basic standard and binned some junk. Emptied my box of assorted drill bits yesterday and binned most of them (why I kept knackered bits I don't know). Got under me tratter bonnet this morning and...

Or cut shortern in the pipe trunking make them both run above the skirting in a neat manner and lift the Rad brackets a few inchs higher. Or just remake the 1 that used to run along the wall from inside the trunking. or just the last bit from the...

Morning all, I might get some welding done later. Off to polish a bit of my boat I may be back sooner if it starts to rain (very dull n overcast) njoy yer day zooners.

Problem is more than visual Old skirting was only 2" high and one pipe ran above and one along the wood Pipes need to be bended outwards to clear the skirting as they don't (and never have) sit nicely on the wall as they come down So either bend...

TBH I wouldnt bother, fresh coat of paint on the pipes. Whos gonna see/know/care? (the answer is not you) If you really want them to run on top of the skirting they will be more visible even if smaller pipe. Yes there will be extra resitance to...

Fresh coat of white paint on the pipes, will make it look neater with a lot less work.

Problem (maybe) Looking to replace these pipes from the pipe cover to the radiator. 15mm to 10mm elbows then 10mm micro pipes along top of skirting boards to rad. Reason is so I can lift pipes higher and get tighter bends to rad valves, should...

Well the other panels are all fine so I think it is just the bonnet. It does look nice though (overall).

You forgot skin tight Lycra. Plus on a bike you don’t stop for traffic lights

Its like riding a bike, tall gears are more difficult to pedal, you have find the easiest gear to maintain speed without too much effort, all depends on hills, wind and energy.

You still don't get it. Taller gears require more torque just to maintain speed against drag but you cannot seem to grasp that fact.

Not the reason, do you have the final drive overall ratio? Thats not what he said. anybody with a technical knowledge would know that. That is correct. But the brick needs to be pushed through the air at a speed that suits you,you move the...

... A bit unhappy to find that the bonnet paintwork on the old P38 is a bit "rough". I had the car cleaned inside & out today and brought it home and the top on the bonnet is all gnarly and "pitted" feeling. :( There's "spots" on it too like the...

Silly buggers have given me a 4% pay rise ...:banana:

Just back from our second run out with the caravan. The Shogun doesn't even know its there. Whilst I miss owning the 90, I am happy with the Mitzy 👍

Flippin hot today again, not doing much.

Morning All. :D I had a lie-in. :) Have a great day! :D

I want to check me tyre pressures and grease the UJ's today. And check fluids. But clouds are gathering and a few drops of rain have landed already. Might get it done this afternoon.

Mornin Sunny again Feeding the bees, had three on it but time I got phone out two had moved on. Cracking on with skirting boards today. Stay dry all 🙂

I went straight to window suppliers, picked windows, gave em measurements and had them in a few days. Smallest was 90 quid, largest 200, few years ago but massive saving

Window man were a bit pushy. Wunt wuk wiv me. We has agreed int principle eye will have em fitted wivvin 6 months but not when. They can naff oft till am satisfied and ready. Gorra free door assa gimmick to fit sooner. But yer never know if that...
