[modeleng] Re: Workshops

There are some adhesives around now that I'd confidently use to mount things 
like electric sockets etc to concrete walls. I have a brother in law in the 
panel beating trade and he gave me some cartidges of adhesive that they use to 
stick bumper (fender) skirts etc onto body work. These stick like the 
proverbial **** to a blanket. I've mounted shelves in my concrete shed that 
carry quite considerable weight. I've also had to remove one, and had to split 
the timber away and then chisel the residue off the concrete. All my wiring 
conduits are mounted on 2"x1/2" planks which are glued to the concrete walls 
with this stuff.

  Hi Tony

  My main workshop is actually a concrete garage and for years I've been 
  considering lining the inside with some sort of insulation, however the 
  difficulty of attaching anything to the concrete has put me off.  It's 
  difficult enough to attach conduits and suchlike, the concrete really takes 
  some drilling.
