  1. Not exactly like this but... Be gentle when screwing in the stud as you are screwing it into liquid and not potentially just pushing the glue out of the other end. We stuck the nozzle right into the hole and drew it out as we dispensed the adhesive.
  2. We installed a digital TV antenna onto a brick wall. First we tried standard expanding anchors. When we tried to tighten we cracked the brick. So as not to be subject to the ire of my mother we changed tack. What you do is to glue bolts into the brickwork with epoxy. You can either buy dedicated "chemical anchors" or use a syringe which mixes the glue as it dispenses. What we did. Drill a hole in the brickwork. Remove the dust. Fill the hole with epoxy, screw a stud into the hole, wipe of the excess that comes out of the hole and wait for the epoxy to set. Then attach whatever it is, put a washer and nut on the stud and tighten the nut. Sorted. There for life.
  3. All the traffic lights in our town have arrows. Red arrow forward, red arrow right turn. But no red arrow for left turn.
  4. Luckily no one mentioned where I live. We like it that way. It's a bit out of the way though, for between between Udon and CM. I've heard Uttaradit is quite picturesque???? But if you make it up here you are welcome for a beer.
  5. Have a look on the back of each to get the Wattage. Eg. Microwave 700-1500, Cooker 5000, dishwasher 2000 (if it has a heater) Add them all up and divide by 220. That is the size (amperage) of the breaker you need. Most domestic systems have max. 32A, common is 20A. For the kitchen where there is water get a RCG/GFI/GFCI breaker. They also come up to 32A. Need a panel? Safe-T-Cut make them. along with many others. Our house is old so we have individual GFI breakers for each water heater. As an example.
  6. Are you trying to protect the wiring or the people?
  7. Crossy will you post a picture of your licence? Someone wants to see it?
  8. 3mm 1/8 = 0.125 7/64 = 0.1094 3mm= 0.1181 Zeus is your friend
  9. So its between 3.3 and 3.8mm but not Torx. So 9/64 (+/- 3.5mm) hex head or Allen key.
  10. The prospective wife will organize everything. It is her first test????
