  • Should I glue and nail a new stair spindle in place?

    Do stair spindles need gluing and nailing in place or is there a wood glue that's strong enough to hold a spindle on its own?

    Hang internal doors to a metal frame

    I have recently moved into a council house, I don’t have a single door that closes properly and most don’t have handles. I really need to replace the bedroom doors, however the frames are metal with the hinges welded on. As I don’t own the house I really don’t want to go to the expense of replacing all the frames, is it possible to hang new doors onto the existing frame?

    Summer house dismantle/re-erect

    I'm wanting to take down and reerect a 10 x 6ft summer house. The thing is it has electric sockets, light and is boarded inside. The electric from what I can see it run from an outside plug so not underground. What would be the best way to go about it all? I've taken down many sheds so would imagine the house in itself would be the same process, but would the internal boards need removing first? Thanks
