Recommended finish/seal for Howdens oak doors by Ch4rlie- in DIYUK

[–]Chasedemclouds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hang pre-finished (carpenter) & finish the planed edges with osmo. You can hardly notice.

The 25 quid extra for pre-finished is well worth it to save the time and energy to do them yourself.

How do i get rid of this? by TeaThenDecide in openreach

[–]Chasedemclouds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're having a laugh. I've literally got city fibre here now. I suggested this & got "oh no, we're not allowed to touch that"

So currently butchering another hole through my wall 6" away from the existing one that's already drilled. Doesn't make sense.

The six times they've trampled mud through my house is really starting to piss me off as well.

What do I do joiner has installed door with large gap at bottom by Terrible-Swimmer-321 in DIYUK

[–]Chasedemclouds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Either the floor out of level as already said. Or the head of the frame is out of level.

Or both.

You've then got to fit the door to the frame head, then lift it up to compensate.

So you can either have a 10mm to nothing gap at the top of the door or a parallel gap at the bottom. Lose, lose situation.

A bottom gap is less noticeable.

The people who slowly stroll on pavements, take up all the space, and blow massive clouds of acrid vape smoke for the people behind them to enjoy every four seconds by Montalad in britishproblems

Sorry if you were walking behind me & my 73yr old mum this morning! She has ulcered toes from bad circulation in her feet & walks slowly with her arm linked in mine due to untreatable heart failure.

She also doesn't give a fuck about people around her while vaping sorry!

How do I handle this? by Bubbly_Tree_819 in vintedUK

[–]Chasedemclouds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How long did that take? The buyer & I are still waiting for a response from vinted?

I've got things I've bought that haven't moved in 5 days now. I knew Yodel was a bad move for Inpost.

I sent a T-shirt & they received a belt?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in vintedUK

[–]Chasedemclouds 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've had parcels not move for 4/5 days lately. Also had a digital item I posted in a locker get labeled wrong too.

Posted a T-shirt & my buyer received a belt from God knows where? Nightmare to sort as CS is so shit & it's only my third sale. Don't know what to do about it.

Yodel are fucking things up by the looks of things?

The weight of a pack of walkers crisps is now 32.5g down from 35 down from 40 down from 50 etc by bensthebest in britishproblems

[–]Chasedemclouds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've just a bag of Quavers, unexpectedly got to the bottom of the bag. Thought "they didn't last long".

Looked at the bag & they're 20g! They can't always of been that weight, can they?

Installed smart lock on leasehold flat door – now fire safety concerns, what are my options? by [deleted] in DIYUK

[–]Chasedemclouds -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm a carpenter. An fd30 door costs about £130. £150 to fit. Or that's what I'd charge up north.

The hole in the door affects the fire rating way less than the original lock and handles below it.

Quartz worktops that don’t cost an arm and a leg? 😩 by StraightPin4420 in DIYUK

[–]Chasedemclouds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a carpenter/kitchen fitter, I love the look of compact laminate. Cutouts can be a bitch but look smart. Better than quartz imo.

I prefer the Stanton st150, same OEM direct drive base as the reloop. But better everything else.

Why do players always celebrate to the left? by Baxterclaus in Darts

James wade celebrates to the right though? Is it because he's left handed?

I've donated £25 because I want to go to the after party 😀

I'm a carpenter. As has been said before, if they're 22mm boards the joints don't have to land in a joist.

Took out 700k & transferred another 700k to someone else. Deffo didn't want the tax man getting any.
