no - too small

something like this would be more appropriate

 

[tom1]

prob have 2 do it outside, unless it rains again

 

[Andy™]

outside would be good - unless you have a very large house!

 

[Andy™]

anyway, back on topic....

is there not some kind of knock out or anything?

or are the screws self tappers?

They are self tapping. The case is just some tin with holes punched through. the fittings are all self tappers, or they might not be self tappers as such, but they tap their own threads, IYSWIM.

There are normally plastic blank plugs in the holes on the spare side which look quite nice as they are untapped, they usually look a bit of a dogs breakfast in the tapped side as the holes are a bit all over the place and somewhat random looking. It;s just the way it is.

thanks for the replies, they were indeed self tapping, just a bit stiff so

impact driver and ph2 bit sorted it

thanks
