Sarong spring sling for baby

marineblue911 — Wed, 10 Apr 2013 12:46:48 +0800

Hi folks,

I am considering buying the powered sarong spring sling to help put my baby to zzz.

Worry is if this will become a habit that would be difficult to break.

Any one using this and any feedback would be much appreciated.

Cheers

Pebble wash driveway

marineblue911 — Thu, 21 Mar 2013 16:26:48 +0800

Hi folks,

I am doing my drive way soon and am exploring with my contractor of using pebble wash on it. I am keen to use the new method where the pebbles already come premixed with a kind of glue that is laid on top of the driveway.

Contractor claims he usually use this type of pebble wash for pillars and walls and never before on outdoor drive way.

Some other contractors claim the glue/epoxy used will yellow over time. Some say its not epoxy but a water based glue.

I am totally confused but would want to try the new look as it looks cleaner and brighter than using regular cement mortar for the pebbles.

Any sifu or experts here which experience on this new kind of pebble wash glue that comes in large containers?

Thanks!

Hot water pipes using PVC

marineblue911 — Sat, 19 Jan 2013 14:45:23 +0800

Hi folks,

My contractor installed PVC pipes for the hot water storage heater to my 2 upstairs showers. He claims that the PVC pipes he used are hot water resistant. They are not the blue ones.

I was not worried abt this until another contractor happen to go by and saw the pipes. He claims that hot water cannot use PVC but only copper or stainless steel.

Need feedback if hot water CAN use PVC piping or must I now redo my hot water pipes from the central hot water tank heater.

Thanks!
