[QUOTE="Humourme, post: 551744, member: 37668"] It’s based on questions I have asked in the past elsewhere, not necessarily electrical, where there’s normally a torrent of abuse or suggestions that not knowing this means you shouldn’t be doing the job. Good example was asking what size nail I should use to secure counter battens on a roof I was fitting to our new double garage…… I didn’t ask how to fit the trusses, gable ladders, board it out, how to set out the tiles, fit the dry ridge system and dry verge system or how to fit soffits, facias and guttering…… because I knew how to do all that from the drawings and a fantastic Marley site guide. Just wanted to know the correct length of nail for the counter battens as it wasn’t detailed….. the flack was unbelievable. So it was nice to ask a question and get lots of replies with constructive and consistent information. As the header says “ the friendliest forum “ thanks again…… just have to see if I can find a like minded plumbers forum now! 😂 [/QUOTE]
