Yes I have one low one... both ways ??? so I'll give the dampcourse a go - thanks for...

Just looking for a second opinion (or twelve)

I took delivery of my new hardwood bearers yesterday - I unpacked them and without hesitation I installed them

And from a distance they look...

These numbers seem to work for my plan. the 190x45 spans 2.1 and I am looking at 2... and the 90x45 at 450 centres span 1400, and I am only...

Hi

There are a hundred threads here for these things (Span Tables) and it has confused the hell out of me

I am building a deck off my house, attached to the weather boards.

It is 3.6 deep...

I bought it off Doors Plus - I think it is a Noble door - It costs me $235 including the door!

I have it up now, and the best advice I can offer - Is keep it square - I had all types of issues...

Thanks Tools

I have done this

It showed me how unsquare the current wall is, and I think this is the problem I am having

I will keep playing with the frame now with the "head" on it

Cheers

Here are some photos to help you guys help me

The frame of the door went in very easily.. it is plumb/square and secure. (this was checked with a plumb bob this morning!)

...

John thanks for that.. I'll post some pics and see if they help you understand.

As for brand - its a "Doors Plus" purchased door - there is no brand on it!! i think they made it them selves

Thanks guys for all the great replies... some quick things

I didnt know I could still get a rebate for a watertank that wasnt plumbed in to the house - I'll do some research on the council...

Thanks to all for the responses - I appreciate your comments

I have installed the tank - it was an easy job - put in on a base of treated sleepers and blue board top - looks good, just waiting for...

Hi people

I am going to install a water tank this weekend (Its supposed to rain and I want the water!!)
