I had a bit of a tantrum yesterday, because the simple task of putting up a blind seemed beyond me. Of course, it wasn’t entirely my fault as several things conspired against me, including a wall with a metal plate behind it.¬¨‚Ć However, the B&Q instructions didn’t exactly help. Just look at the quality of this amazing diagram:
(click it for a bigger, but not exactly more visible version)
Ignoring the fact the screws provided needed 5mm holes, not 6mm, exactly how are you supposed to figure out what the picture on the right is showing?
Yep, I feel for you mate. I have built most of my own furniture, I have restored motor cycles, I can do most things without difficulty – until 2 days ago when I received 4 blinds for the house without instructions. Damn. Nothing seems to fit, I have received 3 of everything. I’m now awaiting “instructions” from the company but in the meantime got on the web. I wish I hadn’t. The instructions there are a tad better than yours but still confusing at best. Sigh….
