  1. hi to update all, i finally added those japanese beads blinds and then didn't think back on the concerns i had from day 1! just like what bepgof said, 'see through' already!
  2. i already tom bang my friend who bought online on magnetic strip. will update again once it arrive and let you all know the cost.
  3. I am also still back to square one, i went to a friend house to hear his sound system, samsung one. he says very good sound. then he blasted the sound very loud! i was thinking loud doesn't mean good.... as can even hear the lousy quality within...
  4. or probably can search in hardware shops to see can get those window handle with a key and lock style?
  5. So many furniture list around, I wished I had chanced upon this earlier, then I wouldn't have to waste time finding on other sources Anyway, I just preordered a tv console from born in colour. Asked renotalk forumers on separate thread earlier if there is any reviews but no response. I went down to the shop and was very pleased with the service level of the boss I think. He listened to what my house reno is, then recommended and gave suggestions of what he thinks match. Very good so got to recommend! born in colour *REMOVED* Address: xxx Yishun -- #02-37 (very ulu as its located at the north end of singapore but its worth it!) Mostly retro and vintage style, with some mix of scandi and country. I love it most as most of their items (as well as the tv console i bought) are featured in korean drama!
  6. my tiles in the bathroom also kenna rust stained with only 2 weeks of using, with some shampoo holder that claims to be stainless steel! maybe i should also paint it while
  7. that time i was doing some research about daikin and mitsubishi aircon... then i chanced upon panasonic ones. heard from many friends and some reviews that panasonic air cons are really not bad in the first place to start with. they comes with a lot of different functions which is very good.
  8. if they said they included the design fee inside the carpentry already, isn't that a good news you don't have to pay more?
  9. i quite sure can DIY. why not you ask your friend for contacts, then I also want to buy. from what i heard, its just using double sided tape to tape the velcro up....
  10. i am also considering to get it, but my neighbour say can get magnetic ones. i saw before velcro one though. but actually quite funny, cos my window frames are non magnetic in nature. wonder how my neighbour is doing..
  11. i am thinking of doing a black glass door. then 90% of the time to close it when not in use. the bead curtain can be a good alternative, worth considering.
  12. ah i see.. so the alternatives for me is to see the other brands since hts-8100 is no more already..
  13. its unbelievable that part time can earn 2k. like that no one wants to work full time already, all stay at home work part time.
  14. if you are on bank loan, you can look for the mortgage specialist who done the loan for you. He usually has lawyer contacts under his bank panel to assist.
  15. aiyo. thats exactly what my friend also told me. not good, some more say will poor health those kind. my toilet bowl is hidden, just that the wash basin is directly facing the living room, and yes! its facing the sofa! thinking of what ways to change the feng shui...
  16. seriously, if daikin starts to give out their mascot (that water soft toy), I think my wife will confirm 100% tell me to take daikin.
  17. I tried looking for the one you suggested "2008 philips hts 8100 but couldn't find it on sale in Singapore. Has they stopped production already? I am also researching on the 2 brands you had recommended (Denon and Onkyo). Yes the primary usage will be for music only, with movies only secondary. Is there any particular model of these 2 brands?
  18. hi all, apologies to hijack the thread a bit, I am a newbie in terms of sound systems but my wife have been bugging me for a good sound bar (not those cheapo ones but of course I think I can't afford those high end ones too). is there any particular brands I should zoom down to? I dunno whats a reasonable price too but I think probably something around $400 might suffice?
  19. have you tried asking your hdb's group or something? usually there will be some who will want to give them away or throw them away.
  20. oh sure, thanks kimsim! mine is a new HDB and think amp shouldn't be a problem! like that then i will zoom in to ME then!
  21. hacking depends on the length of the wall involved in hacking, and can ranges from very cheap to very expensive. hacking is one of the component like "no market" one. anyway, as a rough gauge for you, my wall was about 10feet long and my hacking cost about $800. This was compared with a few other contractors.
  22. hmm, for item 11, i believe its the haulage. Do ask how much it is as it differs from project to project. It may be as little as 300, or as high as 900. usually every project there will only be 1 dedicated guy for this job (assigned or recommended by HDB). **edit: I am referring to the new quotation
  23. i am also thinking of reconstructing a new door frame. I called up the contractor for HDB metal door (it differs from project to proj) and they say they don't sell individuals. if you talk to door contractors, they will tell you all sorts like metal no good and very expensive. But Deadend is right about industry wide just using wooden door frame.
