  1. I want to buy myself an impact driver but cant find one.

    I've cheched homepro but they only have drill drivers.

    Does anyone know where I should buy one.

    I see them on ebay but I am worried about costoms.

    There are lots of makita impact drivers with no batteries or chargers.

    Can they be bought here if I order "body only".

    I'm looking for a brushless model with high tork but I don't mind

    if it's electric or battery.

    What would you do.

  2. Kkerry,

    Why do you reckon that I should use the cheaper evo model.Is there no extra

    noticable improvement with the pro.Iwould love to know.

    I'm going to get a Thai guy to call round and do the instalation,am I going to loose everything on my New Volume disk or can he work around this.

    I can't find anything useing up my cpu or memory but I will keep an eye on it.

  3. I have a little 10 inch Lenova notebook which came with Windows 8.1.

    It was slow when I got it but I went on utube and got some videos on

    speeding it up and now it's really snappy but only for about 3 hours after

    I start it up.

    Then it slows right down and I have to restart it.Is there anything I can do about this.

    I was looking at upgrading to an SSD.Would that solve the problem.

    If so how can I choose the SSD.

    There is a video on utube which recomends changing to a 128GB disk for my model.

    These cost from 2,000bht to 4,000bht.

  4. I'm not shure how it all works actually.

    When they started they put dug a little trench around the perimiter of the yard

    and layed concrete blocks up to ground level.Then they put the concrete posts into

    the bare earth and put the same trench with concrete blocks around the perimiter of the rooms.

    What happens next.

    The finish on the floor and the yard is going to be smooth concrete with powder colour pigment in it.

    Do they put down a layer of rough concrete and a thin smooth layer on top or how does it work.

  5. I'm having a house built and I want to pour the floor before the rainy season gets worse but my builder is saying that I must install the door frames first but the door frames won't be ready for another 2 weeks.

    Is there some trick I can use to put something around where the door frames should go,pour the floors and then slip them out so that the frames would be easy to install

    later.

    I was thinking of short pieces of pvc pipe but I'm afraid that they would stick to the concrete and wouldn't come out.

  6. I got a Hill Tribe gentelman and his crew to come and put in a septic tank yesterday.They came and dug the hole by hand and threw a few large concrete rings in it and a concrete lid on top.

    So far so good.

    Then they only half covered the lid with earth,put a half bucket of concrete on the hole in the circular concrete lid and then put a half inch blue P.V.C pipe about

    five foot long sticking out of the concrete dolop.

    Is there any way that I can tidy this up.

    Can I cover the lid fully with earth.Can I

    crop the five foot pipe down to the level of the earth I put on the lid.

    Can I change the blue pipe to something that would last longer and looks

    less eye catching.

    Because now the whole job looks like a tank of sh............................

  7. Thanks for the feed bsck guys but I'm not sold

    on the fake wood.It may look convincing but it just

    doesn't feel right.

    But you are confirming what my builder has told me.Fakewood is cheaper

    to by,faster to install and lasts forever and that there is no marine

    ply in Thailand or if there is it's too expensive.

    The only other solution is the cheap bamboo clading that you see on

    cheap bungalows(and I'm building a cheap bungalow).Paint it with

    antifunguside paint and change it every

    year and a half untill you've saved up eneough money for real wood.

    I have only seen it done by aplying insectaside with a paint brush

    and then varnish I'm hopeing that the antifunguside paint will

    be easier and it's not that bad a solution if you know that you will only

    have to change it twive before you can afford real wood.

    Any ideas on techniques for this.I would also be woried about attracting

    turmires into the house.

    more money

  8. I don't know that I understand that question.......it has nothing but concreate posts the clading

    is going to be the outer wall.

    Anybody know a cheaper more natural solution than Smartwood.Some kind of plywood that is solid and will take some few years outside if painted well.

  9. I will be clading a house soon which will have concrete posts.

    I'm trying to decide which type of clading to use but first

    I need to know what the choices are.

    My builder says Smartwood(fiber cement) is cheapest to buy,fastest to install

    and lasts the longest.The trouble is it looks like what it is......fake wood.

    So I was looking at plyboard,I had a peice of the heaviest quality available in

    the city 3/4 inch and left it out in the rain and 2 pocket holes came between the

    layers as if they were airholes,ie,the board was not solid.Maai Yaang they call it,but the shop was full of different types of 8 by 4 sheets I just didn't know which would work outside.

    So does any one know what other choices there are in Thailand for out door clading that isn't Fiber cement.

    Much obliged.
