boards

Boards of Canada are a Scottish electronic music duo consisting of brothers Michael Sandison and Marcus Eoin. Signing to Skam and then Warp Records in the 1990s, the duo received recognition following the release of their debut album Music Has the Right to Children in 1998. They followed with the albums Geogaddi (2002), The Campfire Headphase (2005) and Tomorrow's Harvest (2013), but have remained reclusive, rarely appearing live.The duo's music incorporates vintage synthesiser tones, samples from outdated media, hip hop-inspired beats, and analogue production methods; it has been described as exploring themes related to nostalgia, as well as childhood memory, nature, and more arcane subjects. In 2012, Fact called them "one of the best-known and best-loved electronic acts of the last two decades."

    Getting tempted to move over to Foam boards for all showers.

    Just picked up some Orbry board and was quite surprised how cheap it was. £21 for 2.6M x 0.6m x 20mm thick. The 12.5mm board is about the same. 20mm Board you only need 600mm stud centres. Does anyone use a foam board on all of their showers? I think I’m going to move over to it a bit more.

    Insulation Boards thickness

    What are the advantages of 20mm boards against 10mm boards on top of concrete slab. Would the underfloor heating on top heat up any quicker or would the thicker board just prevent the heat from dispersing less
