  1. Right things first: 1. $. Size, tenure, downpayment, cpf, bank, instalments, 5% hidden, reno.....press the calculator hard and right before too late. It's a hard financial commitment. 2. Location. tpt, schools, malls, mkts, gardens, park, young, old......set yr preferences right, so you can tell others WHY u buy. If you can't tell why, please don't buy..... 3. Floor.(at least i'm very particular about this) 4. Time frame for search and decision making/action.... Give chance for others to continue...
  2. http://renotalk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4110&sid=0fd59232660ca4050c632362172607cd To summarise, overlaying 'saves' time & $ - it's a quick 'fix' solution to owner & contractor. One would reap what he sows when time comes. When 'tide is low', ugly things surfaces. Perhaps you can sell away before 'tide low'. Whether chemical/epoxy/cement......doesn't matter....it is the 'overlaying' that matter. Tiling is the most major item in term of reno..... measure twice cut once.
  3. I don't want to know how, but can tell me why? When 'low tide' comes, all ugly things surface, watch out.
  4. Why not? So long as you got money. Some more this helps lower the impedance for effective power transfer (characteristic impedance) and reduce harmonic!
  5. I have my kitchen's washing basin drain pipe 'buried' under the tile and discharge direct to the floor strap. The washing m/c's discharge pipe also 'pop' into this floor strap. In both toilets, these drainage pipes also buried under tile then discharge to floor strap (stacker). The balcony has a vertical pipe and a floor trap. I cover the pipe with wooden wall, covered the floor trap with granite tile. Why is the problem?
  6. Ones may take anything and everything as 'fs item' as long as he loves, no one can stop. There are many 'monkey hands' in real world, often expressing love through touching or moving items they love w/o permission. To prevent items from touching by others, lock them in safe so no one can touch or move except you. If must make visual display for 'saliva dripping' function, then display it in the public with transparent enclosure with security. To prevent financial loss against theft & fire, plenty of insurers would love to provide their services. Things change every split seconds no matter you like it or not. If items stands still then it will be a dead world.
  7. Cement is needed while overlaying tile-on-tile. Bottom tile surface need to be roughed b4 applying cement. Anyway, not recommended to do tile overlaying due to cost saving, particularly toilet flooring and interior wall.

  9. Why not allowed as such won't inconvenient to neighbour? Putting a removable tile on top will do.
  10. Peach flowers bloom in April when weather starts turning warm from cold. Bees come for food and flowers turn into fruits. There are place, stimuli and timing. Stretching/pointing sexy legs on bed in private home towards windows invite 'bees' ? What about my hairy legs ? I pointed so many years liao still no 'female bees' interested! No 'bees' how can the 桃花 blooms and bear 桃花果? 人云亦云 或 不知所云乱云也?
  11. LED technology produces switching pulse that generate 3rd order harmonic into power distribution line thus causing cable extra heat + stray capacitance that lower the impedance of the power lines causing nuisance earth leakage trip unnecessarily. Watch out.
  12. Kidding? KDK is the most reliable....! still compare for what?
  13. Most likely earth leakage >30mA that tripped the mains incoming. Very headache...unless you have megger tester, you would know exactly where is the problem. Leave the unit dry by forced cooling for time being then test again....
  14. Appeal for what? https://services2.hdb.gov.sg/webapp/BF02SPINS2/BF02PSPINSLogin.jsp?ctxroot=webapp/FI10PPORTAL Login here, write your story, good luck.
  15. http://floodlist.com/asia See the 聚水 effects. The worst in 40 years, rarely, Myanmar this time sends out SOS for international aid. Still bother about where you install the water heater?
  16. Basically a financial mkt research & consulting firm (India). Like many those financial institutions (DBS, UOB, OVBC, May bank, KIM Eng, kayhian.....)who have departmental branches with financial (mostly with CFA titled) analysts studying financial markets(equity, bond, Fx, insurance ......) past performance and forecast future based on Technical analysis and fundamental value analysis (Top down or bottom up) therefore providing 'crystal ball' advises to clients. Go and read Finance, you'll under the complex natures of ......... Anyway, just to share: Banking/finance, Energy/fossil/neuclear/renewable/stored, Telecom/technologies, are the top 3 brothers at upper most gravevine links. Once they 'shake', the shaking will pass down to lower streams (coffee shop level)
  17. All HDB dwellings comes with very strong supporting walls, not only 'behind', but front and sides as well, particularly those older estates like AMK. So, wherever the bed is placed, sure there are very strong supporting walls around, behind and sides. Perhaps the very strong supporting walls and the 'strong, protective energy' give rise to 90.3% of the Singaporeans own a house and are 'assets' rich. But What has windows and bed to do with marriage dissolution?
  18. 十二真言: 左青龙,右白虎,前朱雀,后玄武 concept applies. Anyway don't anyhow 'gasak'. They could have many 'meanings'. You're the 'General' in commercial battle field. Sits 'behind' a table with solid 'backer'. You can put yr mind, heart & soul at peace. Arm yourself with capable left & right hand men to fight in real wars with results. Your front should come with 'unblocked' views for right decision makings, not those 'filtered/blocked' information. The spot to settle your 'natural calls' should not be too far nor too near. Too near,human nature tends to visit unnecessarily. Too far, human nature 'suppress' the 'natural calls', toxic things within make one sick. Agar agar can liao.
  19. Speculation, claim? Care to elaborate HOW does marriage dissolution link to putting beds under windows ?
  20. Quite some time ago, quite many feedbacks to gov bodies about drainage choke issues, but get ignored... 2010 year, Heaven acted. Our dear Orchard road get 聚水 = 聚财, nea/pub push here & there. 2nd/3rd times, heaven hit on the same spot, all depts wakeup and joined hand to fight and hope to do away the '财'. 7/7/15, heaven gave a bit of '财' to SMRT's TPG underground tunnel, 57 stations down at the same time. What a '破 财' indded Recently the Ponggol Waterway's '财' issue broke real 财of many residents. 聚水 = 聚财?
  21. Bro Htng, welcome back. Previously I did mention about my 3rd bro's case, he said....64 卦. Anyway, tilting door is the 'effect' of some fs school of thought. And personally I don't quite understand the linkage between 'cause & effect'. I'm engineering/business/finance trained, so while looking at the universe inevitably wearing these color lens for interpreting things.... Obviously, to me, there are infinite '卦' in our living environment, not only 64. 64 equals to 2 to the power of 6, mathematically. However, the 'cause & effect' (same as sow & reap) is the basic universal law. Problems to us are that there too many 'causes' are 'unidentifiable' in a quantitative way, eg human relationship could be a 'push' or 'pull' driver in a given situation. Quantitative 'Capital' is often a 'push' factor in business settings. Of course, there are many macro and micro issues that link to the happening of a particular event. And again, we do not really understand, at a certain point of time, how these issues could affect our lives exactly, at that point or even in the near further. It sounds too chiam? Some examples here: If Fed raises interest rate (macro) this Sept or Dec, then the cost of borrowing would go up that affect many business ventures who may close shops. The stock markets would most likely to turn north while bond markets go south...many ppls would be affected. Political uncertainty (macro),say our neighbouring country - many would be affected, some go 'up', some 'down', some 'unchange'. Oil price slide(macro) - many many ppls 'suffer' while some 'gain'. Ineffective management of a company (micro) - Only the stakeholders dealing with that company affected. I can't see the point of tilting the door - it won't stop the interest from going up. It won't stop you from not getting into political uncertainty. It also won't prevent the oil price going up or down. It also can't guaranteed you from not being an employee of an ineffective managed company. However, perhaps, tiling the door would help one to be felt psychologically 'better'. Don't forget that 'emotion impels men to actions'. Human emotion is a branch of psychology study. Similar situations that many engage FSM, so as 'to feel better'. But, what really could help, in a more practical sense, that prevent men to go into 'unfavourable' situations? Or to get engaged into a 'more favourable' situations?
  22. Anyone knows the logic for tilting main door?
