[Totally OT] Freecycle     Thu, 29 Oct 2009 22:45:25 +0000
Is a wonderful concept. Just off loaded some outgrown kids stuff to good homes very quickly, prior to our move next week. Sort of stuff you'd get 10 quid for if that after waiting a week on ebay and impractical to post... Pity that the mailing list software is so crap though. Yahoo groups is the devil's rectum ( ...

Cheap shower mixer - but no fixing holes???     Thu, 29 Oct 2009 22:13:05 -0000
I bought a very cheap shower mixer from Toolstation - this one: http://www.toolstation.com/shop/Taps+Showers/Complete+Showers/Thermostatic+Bar+Mixer+Chrome/d240/sd2946/p76879 I can't quite believe that it has no fixing holes to screw it to the wall. Is that right? It's just supposed to hang off the pipework? ...

why oh why ...     Thu, 29 Oct 2009 20:18:02 -0000
... do "they" (the manufacturers) make the bit that the bolt shuts into the same diameter, but for a few microns, as the bolt shaft? If I fit a bolt to a door, and the "loop" that the bolt shaft shuts into fits to the door frame, the two line up and the bolt works nicely. However, if the door sags, or the woo ...

Kitchen lighting     Thu, 29 Oct 2009 19:59:50 +0000
My kitchen ceiling was damaged a while ago by various water leaks. I'm going to fix it very soon, and thought I should take the opportunity to sort out the lighting while I can still run the cables. The current arrangement is a single 3-spot fitting in the centre of the room. This forces you to work in your o ...

Are different brands of MCB interchangeable?     Thu, 29 Oct 2009 12:06:17 -0700 (PDT)
I need to swap an unused 40A Wylex MCB in a Wylex consumer it for a 32A MCB for a new ring main. I'd assumed that different brands of MCB were interchangeable until I saw how many different brands at similar prices Toolstation stocked - and that made me think there must be a market for specific makes. Toolsta ...
