Sink is IKEA at £130 is also super as equivalent dosh get you tin one from B&Fyou

For decades, B&Fyou sinks sold in England, have been French manufacture. (for you know what reason)

Me drove over to the UK to get a full-size one in the '90s (long before such sinks became popular outside of GB).
40" model, double sink, plus kiddy bath. (posh kitchen shop in Newmarket)
Amusing part : I'd been visiting French DIY centers for ages before jumping the UK sink hunt, not even the smallest Belfast model to be found in La Francia. 20 years later, IKEA for less.

The orderliness of your stuff ....
It is unnatural ....
What a huge amount of energy needed to invest in this!

It must still be waiting for the endless list of projects - all of which will be stacked up in some state of "I'll finish that one next"..... At least that's the way it works around my place..... 🙄

Nice stuff BK - I will make no comments about wifey's - except that someday they will read all of this stuff and then we are all dead..... :crazy:

You guys have a lot of time on your hands - I'll check in again after BA. Right now, I'm doing gain-phase plots on amps using an HP4194A G-P analyzer and finding stuff that needs a clean-up. BTW - learning sh** along the way. It's possible to have an amp that has a reasonably clean-looking square wave response that has issues when viewed with a G-P analyzer with sufficient frequency range (and you wonder why wing-ding stuff like cables might matter?).
 
Seems to me that venturing forth into such realms has caused confusion rather than the sought for increase in understanding. I cannot but admire you and of course you (now) fully realize that the first steps are the most difficult. (If you are unaware of this I suggest you read Pilgrim's Progress).

"Time on your hands" perhaps, but most of us are old farts who form the last remaining family of Dodos, unknown of, except in this dark forum. That we still (secretly) exist is down to early survival training of the most rigorous type; the Seal's course is nothing by comparison.

Keep at your research and the clouds may unfold for you.
 
Reminds me, did you do the double-glazing window swap yourself, or had it done ?

Got that done (she is real good at saving money) £220 for swap

Told ya she is Scotrish

Snag was she told me off for giving windows dudes half a crate of Coronas £6

She went on naghin about it for a while and will remember and remind me for years to came.🙁

Thing is it was blody hot summer day (window glazing is cheaper in the summer) and lads be back next time and do even better job 😀

yeah loads of it just here as my tumbs are tired from twidling and so I can use ring finghers to type

Why one uses square wave on amps escape me yes ok summ of all sine harmonics and such but speaker just in out in out and silence in between

I do run squares on phono stages it works there...

What up whith cable if 0.75 CSA do 32 is even betterer 😀
