You can also get the expanding foam post fix, but, I wouldnt trust it really, especially where I live on the side of a valley and when the storms blow in the right direction, whistling down the valley, nowt is safe!

Cannot beat a breaky uppy mode, saves the hand cramps and chipped knuckles knocking ten bells out of a chod of conc with a hammer and chisel.

I have a massive JCB drill with a concrete breaky uppy mode which has got me out of jail free a couple of times replacing rotted fence posts that has been concreted in.

Putting my 2 deckings in.... I've dug enough post holes to last me a life time... I feel sorry for the future poor sod who may want to shift'em... Like most things I do, I tend to go over the top, and as such, I've probably got shares in postcrete! :D

Consult a qualified electrician for compliance with BS 7671 and local building Regs! Avoid areas where future digging is likely. ;)

That depends on where the cable is to run. Minimum depth in a garden in 450mm. Under pavements 600mm.

Just Testing this..


This code is for copying a dragged file into your project Folder, if its not already there
Code  blitzmax Select
Strict

Function CopyFileIfNotExists(OriginalFileURL:String, DestinationFolderURL:String)  					'Copies file to Destination only if its not already there
	Local FN:String = ExtractFilenameFromURL(OriginalFileURL)
	Local NFU:String = DestinationFolderURL + FN
    		If FileExists (NFU) = False
		CopyFile(OriginalFileURL, NFU)
		Print "File copied to Destination"
    		End If
End Function

Function ExtractFilenameFromURL:String(FileNameAndPath:String, ReturnWithoutFileEnding = False, ReturnEvenIfNoFileEnding = True)	

	If ExtractExt(FileNameAndPath) = "" And ReturnEvenIfNoFileEnding = False Then Return
	
	Local LenFNA = Len(FileNameAndPath)
	
	For Local I = LenFNA To 1 Step - 1
	
		Local MidFNA:String = Mid(FileNameAndPath, I, 1)
		
		If MidFNA = "/" Or MidFNA = "\" Then

			Local MaybeFileName:String = Right(FileNameAndPath, LenFNA - I)

			If ReturnWithoutFileEnding = True Then MaybeFileName = StripAll(MaybeFileName)
			
			Return MaybeFileName

		End If
		
	Next
	
	Return FileNameAndPath	
End Function

Function FileExists(URLAndFilename:String = "")
	Local TempStream:TStream
	TempStream = OpenStream(URLAndFilename, False, False)
	If TempStream <> Null Then
		CloseStream(TempStream)
		Return True
	End If	
End Function

There is a forum for general media discussion (scroll down the list), but if there is code involved, then yeah, might be better to stay in the realms of the BlitzMax bit!  8)

You can move it if you think its the wrong place. I dont mind :)

Just another image of a different project




Eventually my main goal is to make music.
so soon maybe ill be able to do it my way.

EDIT: I've shuffled it to the Worklogs section, I think that will be a better home for it as it's about your projects - Dabz

I always love to help those who want help
and save them all the trouble i went through.
so if you have questions, ask..
also i have an idea to make one big shared library
like a type of an engine
same like modules but without compile so it can be accessed easily and
changed
