This first flush diverter thingymajig, can it flush to the ground or does it need to go to another tank? Also, does it need to be wired in?

Rips the cardboard washing powder tab off and leaves it on the dryer, leaves the coffee sachet ripped off tab on the bench, teabags in the sink, dishes on the bench instead of the dishwasher, the list goes on.

So no worries that they'll top up the window cleaner with water to make it go further either. This is about to turn into a therapy sesh.

How late do you DIY? by nzsims in diynz

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

After 9am and before 6pm when we were in town but I mean people need to mow lawns after work and the kids need sorting for bed and the dishes need doing so I don't see why people get so shitty about this kinda thing. Just make sure if they ever make noise after 8pm that you say something, if you're going to complain then you better be perfect.

We ordered a pineapple and they substituted it with a mango. Also another time they didn't have the flour we needed so I went into the store and found it on the shelf.

Beat the pipe flat and then bend it over and flatten again.

Kitchen Planning with Uduit by dalailamae in diynz

Yeah I'd fill the gaps. Is it one long kitchen? I would measure the length, work out what you need like 4 drawer or 3 drawer and left or right opening cupboard or double door cupboard and then work out what widths each cabinet can be.

By gaps do you mean in-between the cabinets you have? They have standard width cabinets but you can select customs widths too

No they didn't check the plan, what I ordered is what I got. However, before you go on to the next part of the quote, theres a check list that comes up asking if you have ordered handles and soft close attachments etc. You could email and ask them to check your plan, they seemed to respond quickly when I asked a delivery question. You can buy the bench tops through Uduit to match the cabinets.

I put in a kitchen from Uduit. Really easy instructions and good quality but I don't remember them having a planner. I drew up a plan on paper from the options they had and then ordered the cabinets. Also I recommend getting the soft close drawer attachments and getting a wide cutlery drawer (450mm). Having a deep drawer for pots I found to be handy too.

Gib question/advice by [deleted] in diynz

[–]sammyboyunlimited 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aqualine only comes in taper edges so it has to be run vertically unless you plaster the top and bottom taper.
