    Sharpening SDS drill bits -the Multi Sharp gadget.

    I can't find a previous thread on this topic, so here goes. There is one sort of house-brick that I dread encountering in my area - they are known as Ruabon Reds and they are extremely hard and unforgiving. After working a lot on two houses with these bricks the same week I've blunted almost...

    Sharp close their Wrexham PV factory

    bbc Sorry to see the jobs go, but frankly the panels were never really up to scratch. It does make me wonder a bit what it is about the UK that means that we seem to be incapable of producing consistently high quality solar PV panels at a significant volume. Sharp should really have been...

    Sharp to close in Wales??

    Sharp declines to comment on solar scale back: pv-magazine looks like ploughcroft won't be the only big companies to suffer in the Fit cut debacle. Of course barking used Sharp as a counter argument to killing off the pv sector with Fit cuts so it can't possibly be true!
