Re: Floor access hatch?

["ianh1000" <ianh1000@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Paul,

I have used one of these and I am very happy with it. most of my
floors squeak but none of the covers using this method. It takes a
little care to keep the router vertical. My only oissue i that you
can't do it in a confined space as you need to be able to sping the
router.

I still have my one and 9 spare rings (They come in boxes of 10). I
live in Milton Keynes, happy to let you try it if you are not too
far away.

Regards
ian
