      When did that happen? I can recall the UK being the land of DIY.

      As it happens I do have a C And G some place that says I am an installation electrician. Not worth squat in Denmark. Here you can change any existing installation (if there is no earth) New installations need a guy with a bit of paper though.

      Same with water and heating by the way.

      Dont worry Munkster, you should see the stick some of us have had to put up with.......Still dont get you off posting a mug shot though!! Come on get it over with Rob.

        That looks like an old plan cabinet Simon ? the sort that draughtsmen and offices had,worth their weight in gold and it has made a first class workbench.

          Sorry, C&G is no good, you need a certificate and guess what? you have to pay for it

            yes it was many years ago an oil company i worked for was dumping them the bench is a flip top for reading large scale drawings just so happend the draws underneath fitted in to the void normally taken up by the draftsman feet,space is always an issue so i put it under. there were 6 draws but bottom three were a pain to open so i turnd the bottom half - divided the remaining three into sectioned of areas and hay presto my bench need a bar stool to sit at it but i guess you can't have everything. only other addition is the plate of glass excelent tip for keeping drawings safe from paint ect

              Here's my little cave. Been luck enough to have a small studio to sit and tinker in.

              Oh and for those of you concerned with home made spray booths, all the electricals are 100% airtight so no chance of any explosion.

                    My hide away from the tele. Coronation, East Enders etc.

                    Like to stand a lot while working so bought 2nd hand a high clerks chair for sitting while working. £12 & fitted a base with castors.

                    The third picture is the gardener's incubator I have insulated & keeps a temp of about 12/15 degrees (adjustable) above the garage temp.

                          I've had a good read through this and a good laugh in places (even noticed there's another keyboardist amoungst us (you know who you are John)

                          so OK then Ron, i'm game ....

                          I'll have to break the "amount of photos" rule as it's a cupboard under the stairs and i can't get a full piccy.
