  1. Ohhhhhh darling ......
  2. For me, no, as the tank is SS, pipes PVC and filter bodies fiberglass and cloth. ????
  3. 'Otherwise, some on here have previously recommended an adjustable stem which is okay for your intended use.' Don't think anyone has mentioned this. I'll Google it. Also those end of handlebar risers....seem real cheap on Lazada, how do I know what brand to buy?
  4. Sorry, I saw this too late. So we have disc brakes. ????
  5. Yes surgery is the way I think. I think they would also check what they remove for any signs of cancer just to make sure.
  6. No, not I, but sometimewoodworker will surely have heard of it. ???? Not sure of you cable duckting and water levels, but when those horrible things ate out my genset wiring I put down those round glue pads. That seems to have done the trick.
  7. Not to my knowledge.
  8. Don't know. We talked about redesign of my building, but then they found out I lived in an old part of Pattaya city where everyone has built right up to fence line etc so those rules didn't seem to apply to my build. My house is the origional show home for a project about 35 years ago. Maybe the same applies to Walking Street and old origional builts and if your plans just modify and don't rebuild. There's someway they get around the laws.
  9. I used those red bricks and cavity walls for my house build, because those bricks were all they had then. So you get about 1" of plaster on each side of the cavity bricks. Makes it fairly strong and good insulation wise. Now I would use a cavity wall of 7.5cm QCon blocks. I also built cathedral ceilings...so house is pretty cool
  10. Well I know in Pattaya there is a law that says you can't have a house wall or window within 2 m of the boundry. When I designed my house extensions, I went to the Pattaya Engineering Department to get permission to build, and this is what they told me.
  11. Don't build wood, just concrete and brick. No bugs are going to eat it. We have a house full of teak furniture and no bugs eat it, but it's really seasoned thick hard wood. Will be just a continueal maintenance nightmare building with wood. Forked trees we use to prop up the banana trees are easily eaten out. Even our other house 700 km in Pattaya termites ate up thru the wood door jams.
  12. Well here's my take. We had what looked like nice clear water from our well into our 3000 L tank. I noticed that the bathroom shower tiles were turning a rusty color, so decided to investigate the water. Short story is you need to get your water professionally tested at the Amphur. (My theory): The iron is in the water, but it doesn't oxidise until the water mixes with the air so then the iron precipitates out and gives that rusty look. Once you get your water analysed you will know what filtets to install to filter out all the iron etc. So my aquifer water goes into a 3000L settlement tank, then to 2 big backwashable filtets in series. One filter has active carbon and the other crushed plate glass. From there it goes to a Big Blue sediment filter ....from there (for the drinking water) to a 6 stage reverse osmosis filter. All this came about from rusty looking tiles and water analysis. 6 L of water and about B6000 is what Khon Kean university charge for detailed water analysis 5 or 6 years ago.
  13. Sorry, they looked the same, but Globalhouse LED light fittings are flimsy. You find out when you go to use them.
  14. Not sure where you are, but if in Pattaya they have them in an electrical shop about halfway down Tappraya rd on the RHS coming from the Jontiem area.
  15. Those connectors are the ones Globalhouse sell with their 24 W LED lights.
  16. Very bad idea if you live in Pattaya. Them's will take your eyes out.
  17. 'They' instead of "he", there fixed it for you. ????
  18. 'I'm walking backwards for Christmas.' Remember the Goon Show? ????
  19. Not here in the Kalasin area. Cleared up a bit now but heavy since last night. Took a couple of " out of the pool. Pool's about 100000L.
  20. That sign is for her husband or boy friend.
  21. To do it properly, you need to take 3 × 2L bottles of your water to a City testing centre and first check your water composition and what type of filters you will need. Some water testing places are at the universities or local Amphur will know where. ????
  22. All good. Can I make a small suggestion? 1.2 m all the 15m way? Have 3 or 4 m at 1.2 m, then a gentle slope to 3 m length by 2m depth. So 1.2 flat, slope, then 2m. Probably won't regret it. ????
  23. Hello, thank you for the comments. With my bike I've had to raise the seat a lot, so now I want some handlebar side extensions, to grip the handlebar higher. I see many advertised but not sure which brand or type to buy. Also I need to buy a softer and bigger bike seat. If you can recommend anything. ????
