I hope you have a good new year Bill. There was a Reddit post a few months back asking for recommendations for good Aussie youtube dIYers/how to/handyman channels. I said your videos were great and so many others agreed with me. You are a legend and I've learnt so much from watching you.
They seem amazing mate. Would like you to do a weight test if you have the time and are interested. Just wanted to say thanks for all the videos again this year always learn something from you Bill and it’s much appreciated. Hope 2024 is a good year for you and your family. And looking forward to what you can teach us in the new year! Cheers mate
Thanks Bill, but I couldn’t see if there was a hook on that fitting, to hold picture wire extra on, or just held frame by frame edging. Could you clarify this for me. Hope you and your loved ones have a wonderful new year, best wishes from Australia
Are you referring to the claw hook or the actual picture frame? The claw hook has a hook on it to hang items onto it. The frames all have some form of mounting feature to attach it to the hook
Will depend on how thick the layer of plaster is as the claw would have to go completely into the plaster for it to sit flush . Also carrying capacity may change
Nice to know about them. Do you have any suggestions or recommendations for Cement Sheet walls? 🤷♂ Been using the Wall Mates but they are messy and the walls are only 6mm thick so not as much purchase as with the 12mm plasterboard.
Best of anchoring into a stud as cement board is thin and has more flex in it. There are a few other options depending on how much weight it needs to carry
Weight test would be good. I'd also like to see how secure these are if the item hung on them is bumped or knocked, because you pulled that out a little too easily IMO.
Hey mate personal opinion we have a haul way mirror we want to hang it’s currently on the ground and it weighs 14kgs which has 4 hook points on it already I only down side there’s no studs available to mount it to. Would these hooks be ok cause I no you can get bigger kg ones available ? Cheers mate
