I am after a decent sack truck capable of shifting oil boilers around. There are a couple in screwfix that will take over 200kg but are they any good?
 
Try looking for an old one with pneumatic tyres. The new trucks tend to be a bit gash.
 
Failing that, get a skateboard. I have one, does a cracking job. Had a stanley cooker on it once :)
 
Skateboard good idea. Have a piano trolley meself. It's handy 4 bigger cast iron boilers, d 4 wheels move throu 360. It'll take a fair bit of weight. Moved a 5000l bundled tank on it d other week. Only a drop of oil in it. There wasn't any way to get a teleporter or forklift in to move d tank so make up some ply to support it's weight and put it on d trolley. If yeh can't get 1, borrow a shopping trolley and use d wheels and make something up.

Can anyone recommend a decent multi meter, preferably under a 100 pounds. It's for checking boiler components so I don't need a top spec one ....just easy to use and reliable. The fluke 115 looks good but its above my budget. My current socket and see one was great but it's developed a fault.

I was stupid enough not to check the position of the pipes under the tiles when installing a toilet and drilled right through the center of a 16 mm copper water pipe. I exposed the pipe by removing a ~30cm section of the plastic sleeve and a ~10 cm section of the pipe around the hole. Several...

Hello, I am seeking some advice, I have a POTTERTON PROMAX 28 COMBI Boiler and I noticed yesterday that the water around the house is no longer warming up. The heat exchanger has been changed 6 months ago, so I do not believe it is that. Does anyone have any ideas on what it could be? Thanks

Hi all. Hope you have all been keeping well. A while back I decided I only wanted to fit one brand of boiler and decided on Viessmann due to space for servicing and changing parts if ever needing to. I am finding my decision rather hard due to the different clearances on flue runs and cupboards...
