    Covid-19

    It was your comment that people who couldn't home school kids shouldn't have them that I was referring to. Not all kids are 6 years old. I did well at school but wouldn't stand a chance of teaching my daughter at the level she is at. My 11 year old son I can handle. Is also important to remember that kids as well as adults have mental health issues. Some may even "jump off bridges". Miss mental health issues can be compounded by the isolation of home schooling,bad parenting, unstable home life, online bullying etc etc. All these things are linked and don't assume that all kids are happy at home. Many are abused and have no solace from attending school. If the parents are struggling the abuse may be getting worse.
  2. Fireproofing is not An issue on a domestic Two storey. Wether you will need planning will depend on local planning bye laws. Where I am in England planning would not be required unless in a conservation area.

    Good at a level maths are you? Or gcse physics?
  4. Near Milton Keynes. Not exactly close. What size do you need?
  5. 12v charger will be better and use less power than charging through an invertor. Although you may get quicker results with the big 500w 240v charger and have the benefit of using through a 240 plug too. Make sure you get a pure sine wave inverter. I have this 1000w invertor fitted in my van. Never had any problems with it and comes with remote on off switch Pure sine wave power inverter 1000w DC 12V to AC 240V with Remote Control with AC outlet &2.4A USB Port for RV Truck Car Giandel: Amazon.co.uk: Car & Motorbike WWW.AMAZON.CO.UK Pure sine wave power inverter 1000w DC 12V to AC 240V with Remote Control with AC outlet &2.4A USB Port for RV Truck Car Giandel: Amazon.co.uk: Car & Motorbike
  6. It will depend on the charger not the battery. The qc 330 charger is 330w so if that's what you have I would use a 500w invertor. Most battery chargers will be running at much lower wattage and charger slower.
  7. This is what i was going to suggest. Easy to make and easy to fabricate some channel and wheels into the rollers. You canals the doors louvre style by just making frames and got the cladding use feather edge with a piece of half inch timber screwed on top of the fixing points before fitting next board. If you have roller doors you can not have doors for all of them but could choose which ones to put doors over by sliding them along the bays.
  8. I also have a cscope cs4pi. Detect it before you start. After a bit of practice you can start to suss out depths a little bit.. Detect after each slab. Then you can just chop out the metal with a saw with a smallish bar. Saves a lot of money on Milling chains. Its the stones and concrete that are the problem.
  9. Brown oak machined into 8mm tongue and Groove. Had gone a tiny bit too far in places but looks awesome.
  10. Where you located and what size do you need it? I could fold you one from ali quick enough
  11. Can't get this one?
  12. Whoops. Pretty sure it's blue Monday
  13. I think you are correct except for the walking dead which I think is the zombies
  14. Not sure where to get one but they are available. Trouble with stihl is that on skip chain they are hard to use accurately and on the 5 skip chain used on lucas etc they just don't work. I tend to file all my Milling chains by hand with the carlton. I find it gives me a chain that cuts well for longest. If the chains are damaged or climbing in the cut etc then I get them back to perfect with an granberg precision grinder. Although as already mentioned I don't think this will cut as well for as long as a hand filled chain.
  15. Carlton file o plate is awesome and the only easy way to check depth guage on a skip chain
  16. Finally finished my offset smoker that I started in the first lockdown. Cooking meat on Sunday [emoji16]
  17. Can this be real. Maybe in America
  18. I think Ash too. Looks like a nice lump for tool handles
  19. Left it about 18 months on the ground to start it spalting a bit. Then milled it and seasoned for about 2.5 years I think. Did two trees. Stayed pretty flat but at the widest the biggest was only just over two foot.
  20. Yeah it's all native timbers i milled and machined myself. Thread on it here. https://arbtalk.co.uk/applications/tapatalk/index.php?/topic/119571-My-Van-Build-
  21. Found it. Not a great photo but a nice looking board
  22. Never as large as that. Got some cracking 2ft Slabs. Used some as a table in the camper think I've a picture somewhere
  23. That's exactly how we did. Lowimpact.org used to be called lili and we're based where I live. That photo may well have been taken at my place to. Its easy enough when you get going
  24. Used to make a lot of these. Mostly with mdpe pipe. It's easy. Can also use 22mm copper. I used a tennoner like a big pencil sharpener to trim the end of the wood to fit the pipe. Then a small screw through pipe into wood to secure it
