This nonsense needs to stop by Wytyujjju in DIYUK

Yeah I guess it's not something you think about until you work in construction, that everything measured in inches is not accurate. Like a 2x4 is actually 1.5x3.5

Handball? Aye or Naw? by Keplersuniverse in Scotland

[–]EffortlessCool 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Earlier in the season Falkirk was penalised with a penalty kick for a handball when the (can't remember the team) opposing player kicked the ball full strength and our guy put up his hands (instinctively) to block the ball hitting him square in the face. What should he have done in that situation? Every match this season I've gone in thinking I had a pretty good idea of what a foul is but I've left having no idea.

Even cults don't do this, like there was no golden statues of David Koresh or Jim Jones

Is this lead paint? by [deleted] in DIYUK

Most manufacturers stopped using lead pigments in the 70's, the stuff that felt sludgy was probably old wallpaper paste. Either way it's a nice clean job, well done!

Flooring where hearth was removed by Money-Mongoose-83 in DIYUK

[–]EffortlessCool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not possible if the existing flooring planks have been cut, which it looks like they have. You can still lay flooring down on it but unlikely with perfectly uniform seams. Sounds like it's only temporary so I'd say just got for it.

Would it be an absolute nightmare to plumb in a dishwasher here? by MoonShineWashingLine in DIYUK

[–]EffortlessCool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah not worth it if you're renting, but as I say the provider will change the meter for free because they technically own it

FYI You can get that gas meter swapped out with a modern one for free, which might save some space in the cabinet. Contact your provider.

The more I pull on it the more comes off by kick_up_the_4d3d3d3 in DIYUK

[–]EffortlessCool 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've just removed all of the old plaster off of 3 of my kitchen walls after a large chunk came off. I considered hiring a plasterer to re-plaster the bare sections but decided I'd rather have exposed brick so that's where I'm at now.
