Nice that

We also can't negotiate. We don't have any more money.

From what you've said, there's no way you're getting the full cost of works knocked off by the sellers. Given building work will always cost double what you expect, and you've offered all the money you have, this seems like a simple equation unfortunately

Dibs for a poor student teammate!

I did all the machining for locks & hinges first, painted in the workshop, allow to cure for as long as you possibly can then hang. I made the jamb too though, so didn’t have to trim on site.

Pavilion were our first bouj pie of the season. Drowned it in custard though so couldn’t really judge.

Yes to corduroy but got to be 70s orange or Magistretti red no?

Actually any of the traffic lights would do. Super saturated leaf green would look sick.

Ignore the #buyers. If a dremel is what you have that’ll work absolutely fine. Could glue or double side tape a small access panel in after.

TBF if it didn’t have mincemeat…

Feels like there needs to be a dedicated “I Want to Run Power to My Shed” thread, like the tubeless thread, with all the info in post #1

No, we’re good thanks ✌🏻

1980mm tall, 430mm wide and 320mm deep

You can take up to 8Ah (@18v) on a flight in hand luggage

Nah just the standard combi drill. That interchangeable one is kind of cool, but in the workshop it's essential to have drill + impact driver. Smaller site work I just take the combi.

I reckon 12v is perfect for round the house DIY. And furniture making for that matter.

Will do brick (but not concrete) hammer drilling too

Largely down to this thread I expect

Not sure about the plastic ones but I made a table base from a concrete number. Fucking heavy, like 50kg+

Looks like what's known as "far eastern" - general hardwood ply, will be fine for cupboards. Might get lucky with nice veneer faces.

You painting or clear oil? There may be some voids in the cut edge that would need filling before paint, probably wouldn't notice them if just oiling.

Any hedge trimmer reccos?

My gut says corded to avoid obsolescence due to battery death + more grunt. Ammawrong?

Very nice

Done

very bad, if you want to heat the room with the rad inside

Sleepy Hollow last night. Class.

Some cracking old guard English actors in there. Ricci is hilariously bad, though she was probably 15 so due a pass.

Spec #8

We have the same arrangement of neighbours drains converging at our inspection chamber then running under our house to the main sewer. New IC in garden with all drains running to it.

Check Thames Water’s guidance on build-over agreements (actually quite good and useful) but IIRC they now don’t allow any internal manholes, even double sealed.
