Atrecord Supersonic May 19, 2016 Share May 19, 2016 should recycle from your army toggle ropes. 1) Wah lao… how to tie?? i had chosen thin (and I tot durable) strings as I need to secure it to the handle/lock of the casement window. After tying, the handle/lock must still allow the windows to be shut properly and locked properly (means turn the handle). If too thick, cannot turn/lock anymore. 2) Toggle ropes to me is history liao leh… whole full pack gave to ex-colleague years ago when i finished my obligation, and he hasn't finished his.

Albeniz Turbocharged April 23, 2022 Share April 23, 2022 I have been very fortunate to be staying in a matured HDB estate with MRT station just a stone throw away. But recently, I need to do some recording as well as attend zoom meeting and I realized that the background environmental (traffic) sound can be quite noisy. I am thinking of changing the windows so that it could help reduce some noise from outside. Are there such windows and are they expensive? Or would acoustic foam panels work?
