apparently no one in the UK thinks doors are worth insulating
It's the British way!
I think rampant energy prices are converting people though. I applied to the 'Great British Insulation Scheme' (sounds like a C4 programme, actually a way to get government-funded insulation.) Was told I'd hear in 10 working days, 18 days later got an email from Octopus saying my application details are being forwarded to a partner installer and they expect to have progressed my application within the next 12 weeks, by which time it'll probably be too late...
Are those Irwin clamps any good? I need to buy some clamps and was looking at those. I'm a big fan of their chisels and wood bits.

Fine for quick clamping (natch) but anything critical and I’ll use steel F clamps. There are probably much nicer quick clamps but these are cheap and do the job mostly.

Aldi/Lidl clamps work fine for me. I'd imagine from the same Chinese factory and usually half the price or better

It’s an insulated door blank from Germany.
Was going to make the actual door myself as apparently no one in the UK thinks doors are worth insulating, luckily happened to ask Lathams of they do them. Turns out they have the exact one I was nerding over on the German manufacturers website.
