RE: That Time Of Year Again



On the note of fitting pipes to the upper floors ...

A mate of mine renovated a property a while ago and installed a central vac
... he used normal coving/cornicing/whatever you call it, placed vertical
in
the corner of the wall (where it meets the other wall ...) skim the walls
upto the coving and it looks like a smoothed curve instead of a right-angle
...

Don't know if that makes any sense .. but it looked sweet ... 'specially
with a few led's (good quality bulk buy from ages ago..) placed in the
floor
to up light it ...

Just a thought !

I know, it is really dragging on now, that'll teach me for
doing silly
things like moving a wall 12 inches to the right.

yup, lots of mess and kangoing, but luckily we have
suspended floor for the
ground floor, so it isn't that bad, just like installing a
mains socket
really. The biggest problem I have is working out how to get
the pipeworkk
to the upstairts socket, still cogitating on that one :)

No, no hurry, still waiting on someone going past your area
with spare
luggage allowance ;) If theyre getting in your way, maybe we
could look at
posting them by surface or something?

Cheers, Des.
