Your right I spose
I don't like compression joints on show so rather than solder a bend in I was thinking I can get a tighter bend in the micropipe so it looks neater. I also have a part roll of micro pipe in the shed and the rad needs a new...
There's a sqworkin squirrel on me garage going bonkers at worr eye fort was anuvva squirrel who wants to share brekfust nuts. He's bin going fer 5 mins despite me looking out so eye gorrup and went out the front to look down the side ov me...
However, I do think Dacia have got it right with that Spring fing of theirs. Small, cheap, reasonable miles. Most other leccy cars are monstrous great things with too many doohickies to drain the battery. Like they say K I S S.

Or cut shortern in the pipe trunking make them both run above the skirting in a neat manner and lift the Rad brackets a few inchs higher.
Or just remake the 1 that used to run along the wall from inside the trunking. or just the last bit from the...
Morning all, I might get some welding done later. Off to polish a bit of my boat I may be back sooner
if it starts to rain (very dull n overcast) njoy yer day zooners.
Problem is more than visual
Old skirting was only 2" high and one pipe ran above and one along the wood
Pipes need to be bended outwards to clear the skirting as they don't (and never have) sit nicely on the wall as they come down
So either bend...
Morning All. :D
Cat's unwell, has a little diarrhoea problem. :(
Usually cats manage to sort themselves out and their gut is very robust, but if she is still unwell by Monday its the Vet's.
No thunderstorms and just light rain here (yellow...
