In your picture you can see a small flow of water coming out of the feed pipe( blue colour thing). Lift the black arm slightly and see if the water stops. If it doesn't then it either one of two things: a) the rubber diaphragm in the body - white plastic housing to which the blue outlet is attached-...

Rolls Royce shares taking a drubbing today~ down 60% after the company try and raise £6bn. At the same time unions calling for 3 week strike at Barnoldswick plant for fear of plant closure and moving Trent blade technology to Singapore. Seems to me the company is fighting for survival and doing its ...

Besides the bus being grey, if the SUV driver uses the excuse there were no stop or give way signs on the exit of that cart track then they need their license taking away and should have to undergo a driving retest.

Some serious irritants nominated already on this thread. Two linguistic trends make me grind my teeth to dust :- 1 “Would of” and “Could of” instead of “would/could HAVE” 2. “ Can I get a coffee ?” Err , no because it’s round this side of the counter but you could HAVE one if I make it for you.

No worse than a packed pub

Following on with the above logic I'd say a closed mosque is much more of a risk than packed pub.

What - a child eating a banana after the driver couldn't see her below the windscreen?

Don't be silly. The child would quickly drop the banana on being struck and..... fall off the front of the truck when it stopped.

I've seen mannequins, dolls, stuffed toys, big dummies ......

I've seen something similar stuck to the front of our local green bin recycling truck.

Triangular ices in those paper cartons: jubilees. Lucky bags. Licorice sticks, black jacks, 1/3 pint milk at school. The cylindrical bearings we called "ironies".

Novel way of social isolating the team although I think there would be enough room in a couple or three at the most. Will they be yellow? Hope we get a lot more rain this month otherwise they'd be useless manoeuvring on the pitch.

As Jel suggested above. You can get 160 mm pvc underground drainage pipe and slice it into rings of appropriate width. Bit yucky brown colour mind, but builders merchants should have the 160 mm size. If you don't want the 3 m length they have some short broken / cracked rejects that you could try.

Hi Hipper. Looks like you are not improvising but wanting to make something that looks both professional and functional. If it was me I would look at 3D priniting as this gives you much more control over dimensions and you can even print in the notch and hole feature. Use ABS or even PP as the plast...

Guessing here but seems like you are improvising and intend to make visors? Easiest way to form 160mm dia structure may be using 10 mm copper tube - bend over a 80mm rad former. If you need it to be a plastic then you may also consider something like a plastic curtain track and thermoforming ( use h...

Not a fan of these data curves since data can easily be manipulated to prove a point. As they say: Lies, damned lies, and statistics.

One of the changes I’m praying for is less British goods being made in the far East purely on cost. It’s this that has spread this virus so rapidly.

So, according to the latest update by Hancoxk today the bottleneck in testing is the PHE. The PHE's response to fighting the virus has been wholly lacking. They do not seem to have tried to coordinate a national response to fight the virus. Instead, they seem to have kept efforts in-house and have b...

Thanks for the link Combatclaret. Some very interesting reading when you go through some of the references. https://meduza.io/en/feature/2020/03/21/the-ventilator-problem Just doing some simple sums.

Yes probably - especially as that peak is currently predicted to be on the 12th April. You can’t reverse 10 years of cutbacks in 2 or 3 weeks. Remember Germanys starting position was 30,000 ventilators before the crisis - ours was 6,000. Germany having 30,000 ventilators - do you have the source? F...
