Looking good Stu! That is indeed a ?monuments job?!

Liking the Sky Q remote too lol, how are you getting on with it?

Business must be good!

You’ll have forearms like popeye lol.

Lol.. its a total nightmare of a job.. oh I forgot to add...numbered stickers and finished with 2 coats of water based clear varnish (which is crap) to hold them in situ... my brains numb soof..dunno bout the arms.

Aye the SKY Q is shit hot Oli..only complaint is the upstair satelite box drops connection with the main downstairs at times.. 21st century problems. They've done their homework...it's way smart piece of kit and all for no charge..

Stuart, I used to sell hooks like that in my ironmongers shop, I also had a metal tube (about the diameter of a bic pen) that had a wee slot cut out. You put the tube in a cordless drill and the hook inside it, you could then drill each hook into place and then just lift the tube off.

You must be seriously fecked off doing that, is there no some wee jakey who you could get to do it for you.

I was about to say there must be a drill attachment for that...or a way to fashion one!

Alex the one I had was clearly not made in a factory I think the previous shop owner got someone to make it, worked a treat on all different lengths, I might still have it as I still have a large quantity of the stock.

I'll wait until Stuart finishes his project then look for it.
