What is your approx. budget?

NOS kit:

Think the seller may have had a few...

So I finally got a table (door) big enough to fit everything on. Photo before cabling so looks a bit less tidy now.

I think having everything in the 'right place' has helped considerably. Still want the +8 inputs because I cant use any more than 1 of the 18 individual outs and to do that I have to mono one of the synths.

Made a little recording and feel like I'm starting to get somewhere. The kick is compressed and the droney chord from the NF-1 goes through the Korg delay. Everything else straight out the synths:

2nd dibs

Trying to avoid corner traps because I find them visually unappealing and will be difficult to install as I have RSJ in 2 corners/along one edge of the ceiling + door in another corner.

I don't mind so much the bass sounding 'louder' as I feel it's something will be relatively easy for my ears to adjust to/can check in headphones. Mainly trying to stop everything else rattling around the room a bit.

^ Bonkers indeeed.

I am doing a bit of a bedroom reshuffle because I want to get all the equipment neatly laid out. At the moment I am plugging/unplugging/moving things around and got cables all over the place.

I'm considering doing a bit of DIY acoustic treatment. Bass traps (edit: in corners) seem to be the most effective but also look sh*t so I don't want any, as the rooms primary usage will always be as a bedroom. Am I doing to see any real benefit from having a few panels (likely to my immediate L+R and on the ceiling) + diffuser on back wall?

Bedroom measures approx 6.5 x 3.0 x 3.0 and I'm using it lengthways.

TLDR: If you are going to do a half-arsed job on acoustic treatment is there any point in bothering?

I had no experience and have managed to do a just under 100sqm mains ring, some lighting plus a few other things (running lights from a mains spur, hotel style lighting sockets) with the help of google, youtube videos and sticking the odd Q in this thread.

Mains is very straightforward. Lighting can get a bit confusing when you want multiple switching.

Got someone to come around who put a meter on everything and opened a few of the sockets to check my work and signed off.

The crawling around on your knees and working with tiny small screws etc. can get a bit tiring. A proper pair of wire strippers and wago’s make the job 100 times easier.

I picked up this slightly sorry looking but aesthetically pleasing chest of drawers for next to nothing and would like to do a Semi-refurb. I know how to use tools but my knowledge of non-structural materials is poor.

It was a jewellers display cabinet and I’ve chopped the ‘display’ part off. Could someone recommend which type of wood would be a good match for a new top piece?

Can also do £30 for the frame and chrome (non-Gazelle) fork.

Abandoning this project due to spending money on non-road bikes.

Gazelle Champion Mondial Special AA 1988 (I think). Reynolds 531c, Cinelli spolier BB.

ST: 60cm CTC
ST: 61.5cm CTT
TT: 58cm CTC

Frame is quite rusty although not rusted through and needs repainting. The chrome has some very minor pitting and would be passable with a good polish. Frame is straight with no dents. There is a small crack on the seatclamp which seems to happen to all of this type, Gazelle changed it for '89. I rode it for a year no probs.

I received the frame with an unknown fork that fits, which is included.

I acquired the correct fork for it (531, sloping crown, Campag ends) for the planned refurb, but the steerer needs replacing as it is too short.

£80 collected N4, or £100 with the Record HS in VGC.

Updated + price drops on most things.

Thanks for the tips/video. Won't be going to LBS as that option is reserved only for when expensive tools are needed that I won't use again. Much better to buy tools and know how to fix your own bike IMO.

I assume I will need bleed kit/oil for the longer replacement front hose?

Undibs/all yours

I have a set of new Shimano disc brakes( first ever disc brakes). I need to replace the front hose for cargo bike and most likely shorten the rear.

The brakes came with all this stuff pictured. What else do I need to buy other than a new hose to do the above?

2nd dibs on 1 and 4 please.

Porta one is loads of fun. I will find some more subtle way to use it, but here is a quick and dirty demo:

I have done a non-ninja edit. It's actually 130mm.

Ah yeah I missed it. in the listing. 130mm/26.0/-10. £20 (what I paid on here a little while ago)

I'm a cycle courier so central London drops are fine for small things as long as people are not fussy about the time, or I can package up and send it through the building.

Yep thats been my home for the last 5-6 years. I will hazard a guess you noticed the array of half finished bicycles hanging in the window?

Thank you for the offer but too much sweep for me on those. Looking for 15-20 degrees.

PayPal fine with me. Sending you a pm
