Would these still be the correct size if the Bali hut was to be 5 metres x 5 metres to the outside of posts (250mm square ironbark posts , which…

We probably should, but we live on acreage with no close neighbours, so as long as it doesn't fall down on somebody's head, I'm thinking the only time it…

Thank you soooo much for your time and attention to my project. I have printed off your reply and it will be invaluable in proceeding with timber purchase. Most grateful!!!

Hi Stewie, you have been most informative. Posts are 4 metres x 4 metres to inside edge. It seems 45 degrees is a popular pitch. The diagram you included is…

I believe our local Ironbark store are willing to assist with calculating timber sizes (not just length but width and depth) so maybe I should start there.
Another question, beautiful ironbark…

Hi, we are hoping to build a Bali hut and have the posts - 250 square ironbark, which we will use stirrups to anchor. We hope to build a 4…

Thanks for the links, very informative, but I may now be more confused than ever...

Thank you so much, I am going to print off your replies and keep them with my pool testing kit. I can't express how impressed and grateful I am for…

Thanks Saint Mike,
the pool water looks crystal clear, except when leaves and blossom from the flowering gums nearby drift in, but the skimmer box filter and robotic cleaner make fast…

Hi, I'm hoping that someone will be able to help me with my questions-
We recently had a 12 metre fibreglass pool installed, but due to several issues with the company…

Perhaps someone could just tell me their experience with EZ (empire zoysia) lawn as it doesnt seem tropika is very well known. I believe it is only fairly new to…

Hi,
our local turf farm on the Sunshine Coast Qld grows a turf called Tropika, which they claim is a new and improved version of Qld blue couch. We had…

Thanks Birdman1, I found that when the product I ordered finally arrived in store and I went to pick it up that the $55 was not charged. I think it…

Unfortunately because we built the aluminium pool fence ourselves we would be responsible for heights and positioning. If we had used a fence construction company they would have had to…

Sorry, on further investigation I believe what I am chasing is called a flush bolt, but Im wondering if its possible to get one which would be low enough to…

Thanks so much for all your replies, I will definitely give a few local art galleries a visit, and I totally love your suggestion about google images. I found a…

we have double timber and glass doors in the passageway, and we need to be able to top latch one so that the other will close into it (sorry…

Thank you so much, I think the Uniden cord phone plus cordless addition might be the perfect solution. Why didnt I think of that? This forum is so invaluable for…

Hi, our builder has made provision for a wall phone in the kitchen, ie plug/socket thingy is mounted in wall at face height, but I much prefer a cordless phone…

Thanks for the reply, I think we will do as you say and put some bricks to make it more stable before adding soil. Thanks.

Hi, we have had a fibreglass pool installed on a slightly sloping site, and rather than step down the aluminium pool fence we have kept it at one level, which…

Hi, does anyone have suggestions of where I can find art like those found in display homes? I like the earthy abstract, interesting pieces they always seem to have hanging…

Thanks St Mike, I think your suggestion of timber would look much better than some type of metal which is what I had originally thought (- like the strips they…

Im certain that you are correct that he should have started at the edge, not the house wall, and he can certainly put a row of vertical tiles (we have…

Sorry, Im not quite sure if you mean the height or width of the concrete. The width is broken up by rendered pillars at each end and in the centre,…

Patio tiling issue - any advice?
