Fundamentally a very good idea.
As you have noticed Sandy ATT is probably one of the best forums on the web (for professional tradespeople).
I have been a member of many like forums and ATT remains the best, very little stupidity, bitching and childish behaviour (unless I feel like it!
)
The 'problem' as I see it is TIME to do thing things you suggest. With the unnecessary recession now in near full tilt most of us are busy getting what work we can so time to do what you suggest is a problem. Or we are a load of lazy gits.
But it is quiet on here but postings are of a very high quality - I know I write some of them
(if you want low quality pop along to Screwfix).
