RE: handy hint

I can beat that - you have to start by sanding the wooden floors first then
chase the channels...

I thought i was being clever by sending SWMBO away for a weekend at a
health farm when I did this. Unfortunately I underestimated how long it
would take (the fact that I was so pleased with the results in the living
room that I decided to do the hall while I had the floor sander on hire may
have had something to do with it!) and she arrived back to find me at the
cleaning up stage.

My problem was that the dust had carried all through the house - eveywhere
was covered - even clothes inside wardrobes upstairs!  I'm afraid this time
even a weekend at a health farm didn't quite smooth waters.  :-(

Handy Hint 1

Never tell SWMBO that disc cutting these conduit channels won't be too
messy as long as you hold the vacuum cleaner up close.

Handy Hint 2

Create that holiday beach style in your living and dining room by simply
cutting out 22 sockets and 16 wiring channels with an electrical box cutter
and disc cutter.  Work all day for two days then you should find
that you
have a thick layer of fine dust over everything and it feels like your sat
on a island beach.  As a bonus create your own sand feature by
sucking up
some of the dust into a dyson vacuum as you cut through plaster, brick and
blocks, you'll find you get a tasteful layering effect of different colour
dust in the clear collection tube.

Disclaimer:  Sucking large qualities of fine dust into you dyson
can result
in the filters becoming completely knackered.
