    Snagging

    I was taught to light a wall correctly. 1 light facing the wall, with 2 lights facing along the wall from either end. Lights to be 110 volt as 240 volts are not permitted on sites. If sun light British standard gives 2 hours for the sun to pass.

    EWI Dash Render advice

    We use Weber OCR. I like the material plus it is always in stock at Wicks a local store. We would always kill the suction as we did not use dashing receiver.
