when working in a cramped space and you can't find that screwdriver/spanner/tape you were just using, your usually sitting on it.

Amen to that!

When crawling around underfloors use a little trolley to slide around makes life a lot quicker and easier

What on the soil ? Or are the houses really posh? I would say empty all your pockets and get a bucket cut down to move tools around?

A good way to crawl below floorboards is get some good thick cardboard - like what comes with shower doors & boilers. Lay it down on the subfloors (which tend to be covered in rubble often) & you can just slide yourself on it very easily & it can be very comfortable & warm also.
Don't let a blow lamp near it though!

Please make a video mate, this is either breakthrough sort of thinking or you are ****ed and robbed a trolly from the supermarket. :hand:

I use transcendental meditation and just hover around. Much kinder on the knees.

No on the oversite

No on the oversite

U must strike it lucky. Normally old houses with decent voids have no over site or loads of rubbish under there or new ones har a 200mm void. No trolley will help me in an 200mm void as my middle engine is a little bigger than that!

Its a new extension on a old property but floors are down so lots of crawling for me

Keep an old cast wheel head from a gate valve (not the pressed tin ones) in the toolbox. They fit most lock shields aswell as gate valves. Makes rad-work easy 🙂

Old radiator brackets can be used to strengthen boxing or cupboards if you've pulled them apart, ugly but effective. Also they can be used to support floorboards of you've cut them a touch too short

If you don't know what your doing leave it alone, or if the urge is too strong, at least talk to somebody who does 1st.

With that much inhibitor, how did the rad corrode so bad in the 1st place. Ha ha.
