Short of a stretch limo - and even then it might be a push - I'm not sure any car would accept anything 21 foot long! I keep getting told it is readily available and in virtually in length in six inch increments but I'd been searching for some time before posing the question on here. I...

So much for "any plumber's merchants"! I've been to five - including BSS and Wolsley - plus two specialist electricians' suppliers on the recommendation of one of the 'everything for the plumber' places and most of them gave me blank looks. BSS at least knew what I was talking about but even...

That's very kind of you thanks however I think you're a wee bit too far away. Think I might give Colinc's suggestion a go, see how I get on with that.

That's brilliant thanks

The KR's are a much different beast to the Duoklamps. I have some of them to and they cover most of my needs with the KR's brought out when I need either the extra lenght and/or some serious clamping. I have also some Bessey Kwicklamps (think that's what they're called, f-style with rapid action...

Well done. I thought I'd give that a go for a couple of items best suited to local collection. I've had enquiries from Greece, Hungary and somewhere I think might be in South America! Those more local are that and more. Or maybe less. Even more bampots than the bay.

That's two good questions and I'm not sure what the answer is. I've got a pair of fittings on order to try them out so will need at least two pipes but whether that's one long pipe, threaded both ends and cut in half I don't know yet. If they work, I will want more because one can never have too...

In case we're talking at cross purposes thisis what I mean by pipe clamp.

Oddly enough, they were two sites my google search threw up afore I asked the question on here. WDS don't appear to offer a wheel with a 20mm inner diameter; Berger do but at 8" diameter rather than five inch max I was hoping for. The idea is to use these to make a moxon and / or legvice, which...

After some iron items which I keep getting told can be found 'any old place' but I'm not having much joy. Could be such items no longer exist in the UK. First thing I'm trying to find is cast iron hand wheels, c125mm with a bore that work with 20mm threaded stud. I can find the latter easily...

Guaranteed 45 Degrees Square 5" £55 plus post or pick up from Lincoln

What are you trying to say about me? I doubt it though. I was leaving as you were making your way along the front of the building.

That's added value to my entry fee

Did you arrive around 12.15, wearing a checked shirt and wraparound shades?

Not sure whether to view that as a tenner wasted or a fortune saved.

I often wonder why some sites have a 'contact us' section at all. In past few weeks alone I've contacted two local joiners asking for a price for something they claim to do and a timber merchant offering free 'local' delivery and I'm yet to hear back from any of them.

Available again.

Newark is in Notts so definitely 'the midlands'. And the A46 is pretty much all dual carriageway from the showground all the way to M69 and generally not a bad road to travel on. But for geographical conundrums try lovely Lincolnshire which seems to be too far east to be the Midlands, too far...

I'd hoped they would start it up again, make it bit of a feature but not enough hours in the day for them as it is. I got the guided tour today, loads of outbuildings they're not quite sure what they're going to do with yet and I'm thinking in my head "Workshop! Workshop! Workshop!" As we were...
