    Best solution for adding a shelf with lip to this keyboard stand

    I've got a third layer on my keyboard stand, but rather than adding another keyboard to it I want to add a shelf which spans the arms on which I can place several smaller pieces of equipment. Weight of the equipment will be around 5-6kg, but obviously most of that will be supported by the...

    Existing to new foundation level?

    Hi I’m building a rear extension on my 2 bed bungalow. The existing foundation is a strip foundation, and it’s a fair way below ground level, I’d say 900mm. Because the ground is clay, we have a spec of a 600mm x 1000mm trench fill foundation. My question is, can this new foundation rise above...

    Remove paint from exposed ceiling beam

    Well, more like exposed bottom rails of roof trusses, with plasterboard recessed between for that mock Tudor effect. An extension has added new beams which I think will look better without paint, or maybe a very light stain (new ceiling plasterwork white emulsioned). However, the original...

    When to strip outer grey insulation off 2.5mm twin & earth.

    I've run some cables up thru some back boxes for 240v sockets and was just putting some pvc channel over the cables (pairs - it's a ring) when I thought that it might be easier to get the grey outer off before the cables are fixed in place behind the pvc channel and up thru the grommets. Is it...

    Under-door brush seal - where can I buy?

    Dear All, Our porch door threshold has a slot on the top surface towards the inside which I assume is for some kind of sealing strip. The slot is 5mm wide x 15mm deep. Googling brought up these sealing strips from Australia but I want to know whether something like the DS-13 strip is available...
