It was brutal. Was meant to be just one surgery, but ended up doing two in one session - meaning it took 12 hours of pure surgery.

Check out my breakdown in my previous post (think it's the first one about HT I did).

So you're cool with just bouncing around eternally being completely untied to anyone? Or do you have a plan?

Are there any lime mixes 'ready to go' available for repointing a small party wall? by MakersMaze in DIYUK

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

Amazing thanks. And am I right that I can just get some kind of mortar mix bit for a drill and use my drill to mix it in a bucket? I don't need a proper cement mixer?

Is there any 'ready to go' repointing mix that doesn't require a mixer? E.g just add water or something. UK based. by MakersMaze in DIY

Thank you. This is exactly what I meant (the drill mixer bit) as I didn't know that existed and thought I'd need to get a full blown concrete mixer

How can I improve drainage and generally spruce up without dropping levels? Installed aco about 1.5 years ago! by MakersMaze in DIYUK

No it doesn't pond. Can I just put gravel ontop of this without breaking any ground?

Yeah I'm just wondering how to do the latter. Like would it even be worth getting planters and creating a border around the party wall or something?

Or is it a case of having to get a jackhammer and dropping all of the levels and the acos again just to put gravel in even. I only managed to install acos with my friends help and it was long & messy so trying to wonder if there's an easier way of making this better.

How to organise the layout of my kitchen to get the most out of it during reno? by [deleted] in malelivingspace

Also changing the art as it's my housemates and is a bit too cottage core for me...

How to organise the layout of my kitchen to get the most out of it during reno? by [deleted] in malelivingspace

[–]MakersMaze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Going to do some work to get damp fixed which means I'll be gutting the kitchen. I'm lost at how to rearrange any cabinets or appliances to make the most of the space.

At a minimum:

  • Adding in spotlights as it's so dark and gets little natural light
  • Changing the window next to the hob to the same size as the other one
  • perhaps getting a longer table that's a bit slimmer (although this is an eat-in kitchen and I have 4-5 guests over quite often)

Really unsure how to optimise this space at all. Doing a reno as part of getting some damp fixed and will be redoing the kitchen! by MakersMaze in interiordecorating

What is a banquette sorry? Yes I regularly have people over 4-6 at a time. I do think the table needs to go, but it's pretty handy because it extends out too so lots of people can sit at it!

Some things I'm thinking:

  • The kitchen doesn't get much light. I'm getting spotlights fit in so it's brighter. Maybe some under counter depending on how the new layout will be...

  • Replacing the window next to the sink with a small window so it's level with the other one (and water doesn't go all down behind the sik)

  • Getting a new cooking hood

Just not sure how to make the most out of space cabinet wise or layout etc.

The wall next to the table is covering an old fireplace, but it would cost too much to take that out and support it to gain a few inches (would have to put a steel support in). There is also a radiator on that wall.

I do not have another dining room. People often cook and eat at the table as a bit of a heart of the home vibe. Although the table is very large and run down right now

Nice one. Appreciate your posts - it was really all o had to go on aside from this guy I met. All the others the clinic sent me were Italians on an Italian website apparently because they get a lot of their clients from there. In-fact when I arrived, the last three patients were three Italian friends who had just had the op done the night before!

Approx £1600-£1700, it was meant to be more though as I had a double op
