    Diesel heater ducting

    With my Murky build, the eberspacher was fitted in the former drivers doorstep. Mounting it there required some tight bends, so I used high temperature silicon hose. I've just checked the current Betty build and I have also used silicon high temperature hose for the bendy route. It's always...

    Drinking Water kits

    With Murky and the 608 before I ran a stainless tank, cleaning it once a year with a strong Miltons solution. Left in for no more than a day, before draining I ran the solution though all the connected plumbing. In Murky the was a small inline water filter, but most of the time I drank from the...

    How do I connect 12VDC Heat Trace cable to power supply?

    It's just resistive cable, so no positive or negative. As with all electricals, do a test wiring before fitting. Mark

    Violating a Princess!

    I was hoping this weekend would be all about framing. Not wanting to remove structure, two, three or more times it was decided to bite the bullet and do some finish fitting. The "Cant" panels are all installed now after the cavities have been have been filled with self adhesive foam. In...

    Violating a Princess!

    This weekend we have made a little progress, whilst overwhelmed with horrible colds we picked up on out Italian adventure last week. Investigating the random water leak from the roof the first job was to clean any traces of algae from around the skylight. With the skylight removed and me...

    Which Adhesive to attach cellotex to aluminium sheets

    As part of my slow extension build at work there is a huge amount of insulation to fix and fit. Surprisingly I've found spray foam to be just the job. It sticks like **** to a blanket! To flesh, to hair and just about anywhere you didn't want it. Even though it is a foam when applied, it will...

    Violating a Princess!

    It's time Phil, the extension at work has over run. Installation of new machinery has been postponed. It's all about making it useable quickly without any bodges. Whilst still trying to work in chaos to pay for it all. All good fun, but I will escape! Mark

    Violating a Princess!

    The testing station I use Phil is some miles away, and not being a local I could get lost on the way ;) Air least it has disc brakes all round with the rears being spring brakes. They still seem to move. As it was sunny today, I took advantage to wash some of the green off. The front end was...

    Violating a Princess!

    I'm almost at a stage where I have enough room to set the sewing machine up. Once the drivers seat covered and fitted at least I'll be able to move it again. I think am going to have to do the minimum amount of work for it to be accepted for a MOT. It's been sat for a lot of years now, it would...

    INSULATION & MOISTURE?

    Remember you still get cold bridging across the metal structure Trevor. This is a puzzle I'm still trying to solve with Betty's roof. Plastic fasteners are a help, but the original wood based panels rotted where they touched the steel. I'm thinking about thin dense foam to reduce the thermal...

    Water heating connect

    All those non return valves would be asking for trouble in very cold weather. Unless you pressurise the system with air it would almost impossible to clear the pipes from water. BTW, I expect it's installed now. Mark

    I'm going to have to get on with it soon, as I've book trips for it already. Extension to the workshop is nearly finished, another month should do it. Then I'll have space in the dry to work. Mark
