Martyn Vann - Warwickshire AO Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 Medium, fine and very fine abrasive wheels. Finish with felt mop and white polishing for stainless, all powered by the trusty angle grinder. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D I actually enjoy a bit of plumbing, the only issue is having all the right bits to hand. Usually involves a rushed visit to Screwfix mid job. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Working in cramped conditions, a plethora of slightly incompatible pipe sizes and fitting styles, the inevitable unavailability of fittings with the right connections and angles on them, the need for weird tools that you never have and awful clean ups afterwards, especially if you did something wrong. Plus there's jobbies involved. I remember once testing a toilet flush valve that I'd just installed, forgetting that I'd disconnected the waste water pipe for access. Shouting "No, no, stop, stop" at a flushing toilet achieves absolutely nothing 🥺 I much prefer house electrics, even when you take into account the slight risk of death. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Exitus Posted September 5 Popular Post Share Posted September 5 New high-level brakelight. In hindsight I probably didn't need to use as FIA-spec rainlight, as it's a bit retina-searing. Still, no one will miss it! 5 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
