I got a few other house jobs done and a bit of rewiring in my music room/studio (and a fair bit of playing too).

I built a barbecue kitchen and bar, plus fitted a cctv system to house and gardens with a DVR, oh and a hutch for the motorbike.

4.8mm is the metric conversion for 3/16", 5.2mm is the tapping size for an M6x1mm thread.
