    Dehumidifiers

    waterbuoy replied to gdh's topic in General chat

    Can you not remove the majority of the moisture through natural ventilation, and then 'finish off' using your kiln? Simple air extraction will help with this, but a much cheaper option (space permitting) might be to initially store under a simple open sided but roofed structure - particularly during the summer months.

    Yup Long time since I used them but Durex used to specifically advise against using Vaseline with their latex condoms Rather than risk searching for 'vaseline and rubber' take a look at: What is it that you rub on your car door seal to prevent it freezing?, snowHeads ski forum and https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20110601234725AA9g5us

    Noooo - vaseline will degrade the rubber!

    Almost unique - a Scottish councillor with both a conscience and a sense of humour!

    Maybe over the top for what you are wanting, but we have used Tek Tanks a number of times for both water and diesel tanks - off the shelf and made to measure. One possible plastic tank is linked to here: Series A Large 1590 x 1240 x 590 1000LTRBLN Certainly fits the need to be slim at just 590 wide

    Definitely don't need Professional Indemnity. As advised, Product Liability and possibly Public Liability if they are visiting you - speak to a broker. I have Contractors/Engineering All Risks amongst others, but think that is over the top for what you are doing.

    Scatter the chip over the ground and build jumps using the arisings. You can then charge the little Henrietas to have their gymkanas on it - win win!

    Snap! (to the climbing and diving gear plus bikes anyhow!

    Looking at the amount of kit you have there has to be a degree of duplicity. If space is an issue as you suggest then why not sell the 'duplicates' and keep some of the items for 'just in case' or to fulfill the hoarding instinct which many of us seem to share? That way you'dhave enough to get started if/when necessary without having too much money sitting there doing nothing. Years down the line old kit will be even older - almost everything depreciates, regardless of whether or not it is used.

    Sounds like the paper pushers at the DVSA are just about as competent as many of the TO's trying to interpret 211s that have been reported on here

    Maybe something to do with the oil having 'separated'- has it been frosted at all? Unlikely to be temperature related today I'd have thought - over ten degrees up here!

    WesD Simples Rice is cheap as chips, and when cooked counts for almost half of the 500g weight in the meal. The most expensive item is the chicken -12% of 500g is 60g, cost less than 50p even if you buy it ready cooked. Remainder of ingredients are either spices, seasoning, milk, onion, cooking oil or flour - which most kitchens should have as stock items anyhow!

    Compare like with like A homemade pizza does not cost the same to make as the example meal you have quoted!

    I'd try flushing the box through (and checking what comes out) and then refilling with fresh oil before starting any major dismantling - has worked well on vehicles ranging from elderly dumper trucks to more modern (!) land rovers

    Don't want the squaddies twisting their ankles in something that resembles a crater eh?!

    I had to read that a few times to work out what you were saying!!

    Agree re 1&1 charges - I've been asking for confirmation of what I'm paying for for 8 months, but they simply will not provide a straight answer They seem to be charging me more for a 'seconday' account than they are for the one I actually have the website on!

    JUst under 60hp I think, but a much older machine

    Just dig it oiut with a spade, pinch bar, pick and axe -removed many an elm stump that way back in the '80s! May take a day, and not fun in the winter, but a good work out.

    But the car still has a value now even with a fubarred engine?
  22. waterbuoy
    As the rest of the car has already done 100k I'd let it go and put your money into something a little fresher.
  23. waterbuoy
    It still made a good point though! Back on thread, up here it is not uncommon to drive through the forests past stacks of harvested timber which are literally years old. Most of these are the remnants of a previously larger pile which the wagons could not be bothered to collect as a part load. Bad news for the harvesters as they are often sold on to the general public for firewood.

    Nope, I think Rosey has just bu**ered up the third page by making a point to Vespasian and TCD

    Possibly one of the most famous trees in the world has bitten the dust: Pioneer Cabin Tree in California felled by storms - BBC News Wouldn't like to have to clear that one up
