Complete waste of time nowadays. Actually aluminium. No protection against cosmic rays at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Anyone ever replaced a macerator? Ours has just died, and it looks like it would be fairly straightforward to swap it over with a new one, but I'm wary in case I make a c**t of it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, the fuse had blown, but it's just making a whining noise now (like me). It's very old anyway and needs replaced, but the YouTube videos I'm seeing recommend taking it apart and giving it a clean out. Can't make matters worse, and it might get me through the next couple of weeks until someone can replace it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florentine_Pogen Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 I find it incredible that anyone in Alloa owns a macerator. I thought you all still had middens in the back gairden. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's just making a noise for a few seconds then blowing the fuse I'd check the capacitor on the motor. The fuse blowing seems have been coincidence, or caused by whatever happened when the motor gave up the ghost. It hasn't blown the fuse again, but just makes a quiet buzzing noise - I found a useful-looking guide here that indicates it needs surgery of some sort. It's more than ten years old, so I think I'll just get an expert to replace it, as the ones I've looked at have inlets/outlets in different places, and I'm not fucking about changing pipes as I've no idea what I'm doing. The first flood has already caused enough damage, and I don't want to risk the same thing happening again! In the meantime, I'll be traipsing our dirty clothes over to my maw's, and emptying the dishwater into a bucket. 1 hour ago, GordonD said: Alloa has sewers?

You've probably noticed the smell. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melanius Mullarkey Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 What was the name of the website where you could stick some narrative stories between 2 characters in and it would play it out like an animated movie?

Depends what kind of frame you want, but years ago I got one done in Wilton Glazing on Great Western Road. The same company have the big Forsyth place down near Glasgow Green 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
