  1. Depends on how many holes he wants to drill???? One of these is his best bet. Of course the OP might be a "tool guy" in which case then 1500 baht at Thaiwatsadu is probably OK for him.
  2. Called a Hole Saw. Lazada/Shopee
  3. Not "their' house. only leased. Probably for tax reasons othher wise it would be please stay free.
  4. "You lousy bums, you and your stinking language, you think I know <deleted>. nothing, well let me tell you— I know <deleted>. ALL!”
  5. Ah! that's the washing machine socket that had a loose wire. That's was caused the wife shouting. I said I would fix it. I don't need reminding every 6 months.
  6. Had a look in another wall socket. Not even close. All fixed now more by trial and error than logic. Bonus? Found my tester screwdriver. Electricity is simply smoke in a wire. I know this because when something goes wrong it escapes from the wire(s) I took a deep breath. After the wife and I shouted at each other. Might have a go at the scooter fuel injection now as a mocy guy has just delivered my 130cc injector. Or leave that until tomorrow. (Never do today what you can put off....)
  7. I was looking for where to moan but the site search function is not working. Wife plugged into a wall socket she doesn't normally use. The receptacle popped out of its clip and disappeared into the box. I took the faceplate off, unscrewed the securing plate and wiggled the receptacle back into place. Then the light in the room wouldn't work. I had unknowingly loosened one of the wires from the back of somewhere. It is grey and comes from the switch so is it live or neutral? There are black and grey wires coming from the ceiling light but am I switching the live or neutral. Add to this the grey wire coming from the ceiling? is connected to the ground on the back of the socket. Looked into the ceiling fixture to try and ascertain the switching arrangement but the wires from the roof space into the fixture are red and black. W.T.F Add insult to injury i can't find my power finding screwdriver and am only using a multimeter so need live and neutral to get a reading and can't just touch a wire to discover "polarity" Just another moan about local electricians using any old piece of wire that is handy, regardless of colour.
  8. Simply tax the signs on size/area according to city ordinance, like everywhere else. They'll come down quickly.
  9. Better to ask for ground level???? Then there is a hotel near me where the reception is on the first floor but there is an elevator from the parking.
  10. Most electricians only have three wire to connect to a motor and only have a 50% chance it will run in the correct direction????
  11. What about the French Polynesians ???? How far away from their neighbours do people have to be to get wishes accepted.
  12. No need for explosives here. Transformers go bang all on their own. Tssk and the US think THEY are modern????
  13. Her name is on the ballot for a reason???? It's nothing to do with her being PM.
  14. Bobsleigh is a team sport. What about the rest of the team. No mention???? There is a separate class for women called Monobob which maybe what she was training for. But as usual with poor local reporting that was not mentioned. If that was indeed what she was doing.
