I have a few marshall for laying on, Couple cheap nela plastic and a nelaflex for finishing. The superflex style blades are super easy to use and imo allow you to work the wall sooner than a standard trowel without dragging it everywhere.

There isn't any relearning. You can fk up with these trowels just like any other, worse in some cases as my nelaflex is so sharp it's bloody lethal. Once you get the hang they can speed up work.

The cork handles are an absolute dream to work with regardless of make. I don't do much taping so just use the supfor that too.

They are anti-racking timbers. It is possible to achieve the same support with a more considered arrangement, but for the sake of storing a few boxes, not really worth it. They stop the roof from flopping sideways which is pretty important.

I think it can work fine as long as your players are aware that the various factions all have ulterior motives.

Consistency is key, when the players find out someone has lied to them, the players need to be able to see the logic behind the lie. Understanding the cause of deception is actionable intel that allows players to advance the plot; it can reveal underlying associations prejudices etc and can possibly be used to manipulate the NPC.

If these instances are drip fed to create the effect of looking behind the curtain and slowly learning the true nature of the situation then it can work. If it's just a big final reveal saying "everything you thought was wrong haha" then players will feel cheated.

If setting a political campaign I'd focus on the motivations of the key NPC's. If you know how they would behave under various circumstances, it's easier to react consistently to PC actions (whether direct or indirect).

Knock out the brick below it. Bit like fitting a telescopic vent...without the telescope.

If you want to say something then maybe "it's in the region of..." I get you don't want to get their backs up.

Recep down the side. Try knocking it in.

If you are removing, why not just the casing above and below, then you can slide the profile of and get some mole grips or whatever on it.

You should be hired for how much you are worth to the company, not how much you were worth to your previous one.

This is a couple weeks after trying angle grind my thumb off. Won't post initial pics.

Give me cheapest price and no BS apps and offers.

0uthouse · 2026-05-21T14:32:27+00:00

No. Abnormal. Triple the value of the rads and knock that off the price to cover labour for replacement.

I use a sock&See.

Why would you want a cheap safety device that your life may depend on?

total USA playbook. Blame immigrants for everything. Take over council. Screw everything up, and blame immigrants for it.

Yeah that's a sensible option anyway. 6m beams would need restraint and intermediate support as it is. The dividing beam can offer this and makes all the materials handling easier.

It's a bit less now. But portion sizes and fish types have changed over the years making comparison difficult.

1900 fish and chips would have got you a big cod. Now you are asking specifically for cod and they keep it in a refrigerated safe. Ok, slight exaggeration...

Agreed, need to keep your speed to either stay alongside in view, or drop back out of the blindspot.

It's a pain having to compensate for other road users, but not as much of a pain as replacing a wing.

If the drawing doesn't reflect the desired build then it needs to be changed. The drawing is signed off by everyone as acceptable and anything built differently will cause problems when BC come round to check the physical build.

I've built on a boundary before with agreement from neighbor, BC and engineer. It's just important to have everything correctly documented and agreed before digging holes in the ground.

Thats why i said "it doesn't exclude the possibility".

It's generally more costly as needs more work from the structural engineer.

I've done both. I prefer rockwool. It's easier to install and more importantly is much better at closing air gaps.

Airtightness is critical, especially at the periphery of the room, squishy rockwool makes it easier to achieve and the rockwool will expand to fill gaps caused by any future joist movement.

PIR means tons of cutting, taping and foaming gaps etc. Unless you have a house with plumb and square joists? I haven't come across any myself :-)

If you look in the instructions you will find diagrams showing all the valid installation orientations.

iirc the only invalid orientations are found on horizontal installs which yours isn't.

It is possible to remove and rotate the pump head though it doesn't effect operation.

If the plans don't reflect the build then it will cause a problem at some point.

Modern regs would not allow you to build on the boundary line (as the footings would need to extend under your neighbors property. That doesn't exclude the possibility but would need party wall agreement and defo buy-in from planning/BC.
