What we all working on this week ?

I have a insurance job to try and rescue a poorly installed quad shower the customer wants to save the tiling if possible and has a few spare so fingers crossed it may work , the loss adjuster allowed em £1500 that will just about cover materials. Kop

Got one like this to fit in a house where I have already fitted 2 verticals and a horizontal in an extension. I like them but they are heavy and I’m a big lad.

Maybe "cast iron" is in vogue 🤔 - big lad are you! Challenge you to an arm wrestle!?

Little smidge of clear silicone under the nylon seats helps keep them in place.

Thanks Simon, obviously would need to do this a couple of hours before the "lift".

I'll try polyurethane glue next time, sets in 15mins.

I find the silicone is just enough to hold it, but good call on the fast set 👍

Looks good, only concern I would have is too many taps which will squish them in. No 2m spacing.

my thoughts exactly but there going to be in bubbles so there not bothering about spacing as if one gets it the whole class is going to get it my thoughts

That's where the logic breaks down. Might be a bubble at school but not at home.
But greater minds have got this in hand 😉

Nice gas pipe upgrade

Harvest Fields · Aug 26, 2020

I was going to comment on the soldering but I cannot

So I will ask, where did you get the pipe clips from?

No way, they must be 80mm no. 5's

Another one bites the dust.
Called for a service and find this. Most parts not available and I won’t be able to fit a new one for 3 weeks so that will be a job lost.

Problems of working in a small room. Taken 3 1/2 days on this.

ShaunCorbs · Aug 28, 2020

Changing this monstrosity and met with the bloody soil pipe behind right where I want to put some clips and had to be slightly off centre

luckily the top shower head is fixed on a backplate so will have to be pipe supported
