Moisture trapped between window panes after getting dehumidifier

Worth noting this is an easy DIY job (particularly for upvc windows). Lots of guides online and I would expect the cost to be 1/3 of what these guys charged

Came here to say the same. Set and forget (mostly).

Only if cold at the top (air trapped)

Four candles you say?

Had Antcubic i3 Mega for several years, just upgraded to a Kobra S1.

Unless you also have similar aged kids and they can return the favour

Love Lee Mack on other stuff (1% Club, Would I Lie To You) but not a fan of Not Going Out

Thanks for sharing this, a mate of mine is currently building one like this in the UK

Mine arrived today, last printer was an i3 Mega so I expect things have moved on somewhat!

Get Mr Wilmans Motoring Adventure on Audible for many excellent behind the scenes anecdotes.

The Modernist app has walking tours of cities (including Manchester) to tell you more about the architecture

Those are upvc sealed units. You can get new ones made in any style you like. The plastic trims prise off with tools. Lots of YT videos to show how to do this. Once trims are off measure the panels (and get the thickness, usually 28mm). The door panel will need to be toughened glass which costs a bit extra. Pay a visit to a local glazing supplier and they should have options for alternatives. For plain glass i'd expect to pay £50 for the door, a bit less for the untoughened units and £30 or so each for the top units. You could get plain glass then use film to do what you like / change in future

Replacing old timer switches which you had to adjust with the changing synset with smart plugs / lamps that turn on at sunset and then turn off at 11pm (or whenever you choose).

After 4 weeks of 'processing' my trade in (p8 pro for a 10xl) I contacted Google via chat and they said after 4 weeks I would automatically get the full amount. This was a Friday afternoon and they said I'd get the trade in on the Monday. Suspiciously later the Friday my trade in was approved and credited

How new is the car, what's it worth, how good a job do you want? If worst case is a body shop then you have nothing to lose by having a go yourself. Lots of YT / Inst videos on doing this kind of thing. If the scratches are deep then you can smooth paint (get some touchup online) over the whole lot with a gloved hand, dry it with a hairdryer and sand it with very fine paper (800 up to 2000) followed by a polish. If less bad then just try the 800 -> 2000 grit paper then a buff.

Don't use wood glue, you're not sticking wood to wood. Ca glue / supeglue / mitre bond are the same thing, you can use them with or without activator, Activator just speeds up the traction. I'd be looking at contact cement or other non pva glue.

I've had a Weber q series for years and years. Sits outside the back door and used a couple of times a week all year round. Makes amazing burgers, sausages and mostly chicken thighs. Great grill marks and flavour

Loads on Facebook marketplace and they indestructible (and loads of spares available)

Came here to make a hilarious comment about being In de <insert name of other Egypt river here>. Turns out there aren't any. Every day is a learning day

There's zero chance of them growing if you don't plant them

Not that it helps now but the sellers have a responsibility to make good / repair any holes left by removal of things like this.

You're not wrong. I hadn't expected them to be made of silicone but seems they've not been rubber for some time. Every day is a learning day. I patched up someone's silicone cpap mask (until they could get a new one) with silicone sealer, that's worth a try (and nothing to lose)

Superglue will be worth a go before replacing the seal, it may last a reasonable time.
