:drool5: Stunning work there Dave, good thinking about getting a metal bracket CNC milled, a plumber would have just wedged a wooden door stop in there!

Must have been pricey though for a 1 off?

Also if you want to see your pics they'll be on my website. :lol:

Thanks Bob. Yeah it wasnt cheap! But I bought myself Forza 4 to console myself.. oh and that new Batman game for the PS3! might try and get a few games in this weekend!

Slapped on a few tiles today and installed a couple of thermostats to start the UFH running in marathon! for the bathroom and kitchen.... will do conservatory when its decorated / clear of all my tools!

 

[davemul]

threw a few more tiles up... dont worry, that hideous glass WILL be going!

nice job Dave, keep up the good work.
I have been looking for those supports you used to support the spirit level while tiling the wall. Can you tell me where you got them from ?
thanks.

Dave, its official......... you truly are a gadget freak :conehead:

 

[Mike]

why is there a control panel for the shower/drain? that looks sooooo complicated :lol:

 

[davemul]

Mike, its a pumped system.

2 sensors one on each supply pipe to shower

measures the flow in Litres p/m.. the system is mapped from low to high flow. Auto adusts suction of water from drain gulley depending on how much water is used.

Also switches on at low voltage/suction 15 mins after you have finished showering to clear any residual water that may be in the gulley.

It then recycles the water drained and turns it in to vodka for me


last bit not true, I wish!
