'Oright then?


Recommended Posts

Howdy one and all - newbie member but experienced DIY amateur here - I really should sign up and do some City & Guilds courses one of these days - interested in Electrics (most enjoyable), will do plumbing as a matter of 'have to' but very rewarding when I've succeeded, brickying as and when but prefer to pay a pro, enthusiastic carpenter along the lines of 'functional but **** to look at' - again, prefer to marvel at the work of a true craftsman than 'have a go' myself, but practice makes perfect...

Fave tool - my Bosch PSB24 cordless drill

Most fun tool to use - Clark pipe bender

Most hated tool - routers - bloody noisy, bloody messy, bloody necessary.

Skills I haven't tried yet:

Welding

Plastering (filling holes with Polyfilla don't count)

Fitting UPVC windows

Tools I'd love to own:

A lathe

A pillar drill

An accurate mitre (maybe I'm doing it wrong????)

An Asimo robot fully pre programmed for all aspects of home DIY.:D
