it'll be reet. I've had two of them overloaded plugboards connected in series before. RCBOs are the real heroes!

well done

one month passes...

Top tip I discovered when putting up some shelves a few months ago: vaguely remembering some ideas on efficiency I thought it would be best to do all the repeatable steps for all the shelves at once - that is, drill all the holes, then fix all the brackets, then put up the shelves. I was wrong, that led to errors carried forward (e.g. when putting in the brackets, 'oh I should have done this when drilling the holes!') - much better to install each shelf fully one by one, figuring things out as you go that can be applied to the next one. Applicable to more than just shelves I'm sure.

I find *deliberately* putting my kitchen shelves and pot hanging racks all ever so slightly on the piss gives it a pleasing ship's galley effect.

a laser level can be very useful if you are a bit more fussy.
