    How many beds do you want?
  3. Skool bus build

    I like that!
  4. Skylights and electrics help - new self build

    I can do electrical work for beer money, as long as you don't want it done yesterday! Also can have a quick look with you and point you in the right direction for the stuff you will do yourself. I'm North Bristol. On the skylight, we use ours a lot - not only as a vent. We can open it's blind...
  5. liesure battery monitor.

    Do you have any plans to fit solar any time soon? Most controllers will have a voltage reading. Or, I cut out those led's and fitted a small voltmeter and push button to operate it.
  6. wind out awnings.

    Ours is fiamma and I like it. Even in the rain - just lower one corner. It does get put away in the wind though. I figure that's not a problem as we wouldn't be sat there in the wind. Rain maybe, but not wind. I've used the body clips wilding.
  7. Bit of Custom Manufactiring

    Very nice, but have you heard of duck tape???
  8. Steel or Aluminium

    Lol. Maybe we should be called the tangent forum.
  9. Steel or Aluminium

    Harsh lol. Unistrut is a good shout, but looks rather industrial...
  10. Steel or Aluminium

    Awesome. Boy's similar - sat playing mastermind in the pub with a seven year old can only make you proud :) He has his moments, but to be fair it's only when he's ill/hungry/proper tired. There's nothing I wouldn't take him to.
  11. Steel or Aluminium

    LOL. My plasterer has 2 daughters - one well into the teenage stage and all I'll say is I'm glad I have a boy! If it's any consolation wife fought like f'uk with parents about trivial stuff when she was that age, but started to get on really well not that much later :)
  12. Steel or Aluminium

    Based on assumptions about daughter - please provide age/vital statistics/pictures* to confirm - Aluminium it is! * Delete as applicable to not make me a paedophile/letch lol.
  13. Steel or Aluminium

    I'm not sure how much crash testing is important? Are the seatbelt mounts on the bit you're making? Is it possible for any mass to impact the back of the seat in a crash? If no and no, then aluminium will be fine as long as it's all bolted together securely.
  14. consumer unit and 12v

    Very cool.
  15. consumer unit and 12v

    £600 - ouch. What was it?
  16. consumer unit and 12v

    I like network cables being compulsory. I've fitted it a couple of times, but people don't seem to realise how useful it is. Until the wireless gets ruined by next doors doorbell or something lol. The lightning thing worries me, and I think the only truly effective thing is a proper lightning...
  17. consumer unit and 12v

    You mean radial ;) but yes, 7's more the norm, maybe another for alarm.
  18. consumer unit and 12v

    It was a link to the picture within image tags. What a petty looser. Ah well... Radials i'll do sometimes, ring allows 2.5mm2 to be fused at 32a. Less circuits for a given number of sockets. A basic house would potentially only have 4 circuits in total. Maybe a 5th for a bigger cooker.
  19. consumer unit and 12v

    Yes, it's not ideal. I would hope that as it's factory made there would be ferrules crimped on the end of the wires to help reduce the risk. Like these: Http://andysworld.org.uk/aquablog/bblog/pictures/e9d7a9c8f330fa4c725f815a5743e405.jpg You can get them to fit more wires in the same tube...
  20. consumer unit and 12v

    Randomly found this nice panel: ZIG E2 ELDDIS CARAVAN DISTRIBUTION/CONTROL PANEL WITH BATTERY GAUGE | eBay Spot the deliberate mistake though!
