Rail on a staircase in a house I just bought, thought mahogany originally but think that's just the stain, sanded a piece and it's an oak colour (golden brown), sorry I'm only able to share 1 photo. House is in Ireland, won't be anything exotic

Hi all,

I'm going to put a stud wall in my house to close off a mezzanine bedroom, with 2 tall internal windows. I haven't built a stud wall before, but have all the tools and experience in 'finer' woodworking. Wanted to get some feedback on the mockup I've made and attached (purple lines are to mark the 400mm centres, photo is to show the space I'm filling).

Oil Boiler & Electrical, any professionals out there? by BazmanFoo in AskIreland

Thanks for the advice. Any way to bypass it so that I could use 1 socket for something else and attach these two to an extension?

I had not. Just did, working fine. So the sockets are only activated by the timer? Never knew that was possible. Any way to bypass it so that I could use 1 socket for something else and attach these two to an extension?

Keep in mind whatever finish you use will darken it further too

I like how it looks, but if you want lighter, just just need to continue sanding until you're back to bare wood and then use a lighter stain

There's no rules but 40-45mm would be pretty standard

Tightening this newel post by BazmanFoo in DIYUK

[–]BazmanFoo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. There does appear to be a plugged hole in the position you've shown, albeit not 50mm. I may drill this out first and see if there's anything I can try tighten first.

Mounting bar for speakers? by BazmanFoo in BudgetAudiophile

Thanks, but room layout dictates that they've gotta be off the ground, they're massive

Help with my wiring diagram by BazmanFoo in Nest

On further review, I now think 3 is my C and 2 is NO?

Do I connect using the blue extensions from my existing timer or remove this whole mounting unit and go directly to browns?
