    Thanks Gents..As I say I'll give the M3.5mm a go first as suggested and see where we go from there....

    Looking For Step-Up???

    Cheers for that...That's the right sort of height, but the platform on the top on tthat sort of design is quite small... The Draper has much less of a taper so the platform is a little bit more roomy. I am looking for something more a kin to the Draper, but just a bit bigger in all...

    Looking For Step-Up???

    I am looking for a decent sized folding Step-Up say 15" high... The best I have found up to now is the Draper version below but this is still only approx. 10"/ 23.5cm high... I am not looking for low benches or other types of steps, just a folder like above but a bit bigger...

    Repairing a damaged back box thread.

    I don't really want to remove the back box as it might damage the decorating although I might remove and fill it at a later date. I have a tool similar to the CK one for doing this sort of thing, but the shaft is double sided, one side M3.5 and one side M4...As I recall M4 threads are used on...

    Repairing a damaged back box thread.

    It looks like the upstairs in the house has had some electrical work done in the past and I've been left with a couple of blanked off back boxes. On one of them, the cover plate is loose and looks a little unsightly. While attempting to tighten the screws up, I found the threads on each of the...

    Vacuum recommendations

    I've not seen or used any of the high end battery domestic vacuums, but I can't help thinking the more run of the mill version are not much of a step up from the old push "sweepers" our parents had as kids...

    Van racking examples/inspiration

    Back in the 90's I drove a Sherpa box van as an installer for BT. One of the things I liked about the rear box of the van was that the 2 sets of ladders were carried internally in a completely boxed off section that was accessible from a separate small door at the rear. One of the guys had...

    Vacuum recommendations

    At home, I bought a secondhand/reconditioned Dyson...Its heavy buyt does ok for what I would term a sensible price. OH then wanted a lightweight cordless, so we went with the VAX version...its ok but not brilliant although does have a decent run time unlike some. In the garage I have a metal...

    Sprinter theft no key

    These folks really are scum...It gets to the point where if you add a little extra security, they just cause more damage to the van gaining entry ie by actually cutting through the side of the body work... I am not sure what the answer is as even a site type security box in the back is...

    Electrics and Touring Caravan

    Probably would not bother myself other than my OH likes it so much... For me the main benefit is that we can pick coastal sites which means I can fit in quite a bit of sea fishing over a weekend while OH just chills out..

    Chainsaws petrol/electric

    I have an electric chainsaw...I don't recall the brand but I managed to pick it up in a sale at B&Q for £60 I bought to cut a hedge that had gone rogue and which was beyond the capabilities of an electric hedge trimmer. For that job plus some serious "pruning" of some trees in the garden, its...

    Electrics and Touring Caravan

    Thanks for that and it is the UK I am talking about ....I have only seen one obviously damaged hook up and that looked like it had been recently hit by a reversing vehicle / caravan...

    Another possible bargain?

    And in of all places, TESCO. They are doing a set of five flexi head ratchet spanners for £15...Sizes are 8mm, 10mm, 13mm, 14mm and 17mm. Thing is they actually look and feel very nice, with the ratchet being very positive. They may not be up to mechanics standard, but for less intensive use...

    Pete's Videos I had to reach for thr tissues watching this video

    As an apprentice, I've watched guys working on joints like that on the BT main cables...That would have been in the mid 80's and I suspect some of the cables probably dated back pre war...
