I need a hammer and a nail.

I do have a tool box that contains everything I could possibly need for the majority of DIY jobs, but I'm damned if I can find it as the boxes seem to be multiplying in the spare room!!!

I know it sounds silly, but this is genuine - honestly!

Cheers Guys

Does that help any??

Posted By: Wench Re: Strange but genuine request - 10th Oct 2008 9:36am
I thought about that, but the screws and plugs are in the tool box raftl

Never mind, I'll leave it for now coffee

Yer, your list just got bigger, you need a 'hammmer' action drill, a 5mm red wall plug, a 5mm maisonary drill bit, a 8x6x2 screw, a screw driver, and your hammer smile
Posted By: Wench Re: Strange but genuine request - 10th Oct 2008 9:42am
Oh Dear Gods - what's wrong with just a normal nail raftl

I have all the items on that list Sanchez - in the tool box smack

I have a feeling it may have gone in the loft when Husband put everything up there - if it has, I'm screwed (pardon the pun)
Posted By: Sanchez Re: Strange but genuine request - 10th Oct 2008 9:46am
By the sounds of things your hanging quite a large item, I nail may well be ok, but if its knock or perhaps over a period of time it might come out. You need to get a good fixing in to the brickwork behind the plaster on your wall. If it is in the loft how come your screwed ?
Posted By: sonyj Re: Strange but genuine request - 10th Oct 2008 9:49am
theresa health and safety issue as well ...ill have to do a risk assessment ...there are issue like goggles (eyes) gloves (white finger you dont 1nt that) mask (is there an asbestos risk)cable pipe detector (any live wires or plumbing) fire risk risk to members of the public is it at hight nuisance noise ican go more indeph if you 1nt

It will be over the fireplace so no chance of it getting knocked.

I'm screwed because I can't get into the loft and husband lives over 200 miles away raftl

oh but hes right...you cant just "nail it"...theres a lot more...and if you use a laser self levelling system you gotta take into consideration the correct eye protection for that too... raftl thats why you must file a risk assemssement in triplicate before you even plan how to do such a massive task!

Funny you should say that MissG - Already tried that with a bent nail and the heel of my cowboy boot raftl

raftl I wouldn't have said an Audi was compensating, some other cars, yes, but not an Audi. I'm not going to massage ego's though, size really does matter - especially when it comes to engine size!
