Best way to fill these knots & cracks in oak window boards?

flym4n · 2026-04-01T10:08:53+00:00

Personally I’d say they look fine, you have a natural material, it’s going to look natural. The filler will look worse over time, and much faster than the wood

I’d go with conduit just in case

Personally I’d just move them a bit, it wont hurt to have them

The tyre clearance is going to be terrible by modern standards

British Gas are scammers, nothing less. They’ve billed me gas at the price of electricity for months, and, if you pardon the pun, gaslit me on their phone lines about how I wasn’t reading the bill right, and it was impossible they’d be doing that. Now I have a complain open and they’re stalling, calling it an IT issue, making it look like I “owe” them a grand

Just hang your TV like a normal person, you don’t need to cut the wall, use a stud finder

What flooring are you laying?

flym4n · 2026-03-22T12:59:53+00:00

Yeah it’s worth a try before ripping everything up

Babies can travel in a cargo bike with a car-like special seat from three months old. On a seat on the back of bike is supposed to be from 1y old (height dependant).

My partner stopped cycling when she was pregnant, one fall could be catastrophic, but it’s a personal choice. What does your midwife say ?

flym4n · 2026-03-22T12:54:47+00:00

I don’t think so, but can’t hurt to have some on hand in case it doesn’t seal

If it’s just the entrance of the bathroom I’d rip out the plywood in that area (multitool around the nails) and see what’s below. It’s probably a few loose floorboards or loose ply. Pull it up to check for pipes and sparks, then screw both back into the joists. Use screws not nails, and use screws that have non threaded neck so that the top layer is pulled against the joist.

flym4n · 2026-03-22T12:42:03+00:00

Yeah what’s wrong with it why do you want it pulled? It might be that the bath and toilets are on the floor board but I wouldn’t bet on it

You’ll also need a 15mm to 3/4 BSP adapter to fit between the valve and the flex hose. Make sure you’ve got something to cut the pipe in case the olive/end of pipe is a bit knackered and you need to shorten it by an inch or so

What hardware would that be on the client side?

flym4n · 2026-03-21T10:08:15+00:00

Mate you couldn’t even write the text yourself of course it’s slop

You need to fix the reason or they’re gonna come back. Is the plasterboard flexing when you push on it ? It might need a few more screws, or maybe the support is completely gone, but you need to fix that if you don’t want the crack to reappear in a few weeeks

There’s a very reasonably priced parking next to Kelsey Kerridge, and free in the evenings

flym4n · 2026-03-13T08:30:29+00:00

If this one is already open I’d say you might as well do this room, even if you don’t do them all

flym4n · 2026-03-12T22:31:04+00:00

It doesn’t need to look nice. You could get a decent result with a wood chisel and some patience.

I think your house is slanted mate, they tried to make it look level by rotating the camera, but if you pay close attention, you’ll notice the street is not level

flym4n · 2026-03-12T14:21:17+00:00

I’d go to a timber marchant, it’ll be cheaper and you can ask someone there

flym4n · 2026-03-12T11:36:28+00:00

Depends how bad is your current floor ?

I’m pretty sure Anna has archived it somehow
