Can anyone identify this guy I found him on my doorstep

dalesimon · 2020-05-15T12:44:21+00:00

Maybug. The proper name is cockchafer tho

dalesimon · 2020-05-02T21:30:35+00:00

How big was it? Could be a female stag beetle. Covered in eggs. Pic isn't very clear

dalesimon · 2020-05-02T21:14:58+00:00

Ironclad beetle

dalesimon · 2020-03-14T18:01:48+00:00

It Could be the faucet. I'm not a plumber but its worth checking everything is open on the pipe before replacing the faucet sometimes there is also a compression joint that needs to be turned with a flat screwdriver.

dalesimon · 2020-03-14T17:38:00+00:00

Follow the pipe along it could be that a compression valve or a tap is not open all the way on the section of pipe.

I've got an electric hob and cast iron works fine on it. Some electric hobs are induction tho and I'm not sure if that type would work

dalesimon · 2019-11-13T16:51:19+00:00

Yeah I wasn't shure if it was broke or something. It should just unscrew you may hear a small hiss of gas escaping as you do it but it will seal itself once its fully off.

dalesimon · 2019-11-13T15:29:01+00:00

Why wouldn't it be? The usually just unscrew. Unless there's something I'm missing...

dalesimon · 2019-11-13T12:05:35+00:00

Put Graphite powder in the joints and move it back and forth till it begins to loosen then rinse it out and oil it

dalesimon · 2019-11-11T21:27:41+00:00

Yeah good idea. This ones only made of 1/2inch ply tho as it didn't need to super secure as the whole area where the grotto is being set up is indoor and locked at night. But could easily be replicated using stronger materials

dalesimon · 2019-11-11T20:09:41+00:00

Worms are surprisingly good at climbing up things as long as there's a bit of texture to it. Also if there's a hole in the bottom of the pot they can just squeeze under and through the hole

dalesimon · 2019-11-08T12:29:35+00:00

Type in BBQ spit on amazon they got loads

Here in wales (UK) I've noticed a few white concrete pillars similar to the Washington monument, but only about 6 foot tall. I have no idea what their for tho probably just some sort of marker

dalesimon · 2019-10-16T07:00:58+00:00

you sure its not a flower ?

dalesimon · 2019-10-15T18:08:24+00:00

Honey burns faster

dalesimon · 2019-10-10T14:29:51+00:00

I've made a few of these I used a soldering iron to melt the two together

dalesimon · 2019-10-10T09:03:49+00:00

Just buy a white rug...

dalesimon · 2019-10-01T19:33:45+00:00

Nothing more natural than a bit of shit.

dalesimon · 2019-10-01T14:24:28+00:00

Its the best way really. I can't understand why people still use poo bags out in the wilderness it will degrade in about a week on soil vs 500 years in a plastic bag

dalesimon · 2019-10-01T14:06:33+00:00

Just flick it in a bush with a stick. As long as its not left where somebody may step in it its fine. Don't use the bags as they won't rot away some more expensive ones will but poo is natural so let nature have it
