No Worries Mike.... as I say, if you draw a blank, My Pals right up at the Muir of Ord on the Black Isle have done just about everything 'engineeringly possible' with tubes of every conceivable material under the sun, and will be able to give me ( to give to you ) further pointers, for sure...

You should be shot for that :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: ( ha ha not too bad, actually ! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: )

Mike ... Speak to : JDR Products Ltd. They are in Redditch in Worcestershire, tel 01527 595765 & ask to speak to David Wharrad. He's there today, and then away till tues next week. Told him your sizes and roughly where your're trying to get to ... Apparently " No problem" ! The other...

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Always a nice enough problem to have though ! :lol: :lol: Sounds great Pete ... Be great to see it, once its built up and positioned. :D :D :D

Did it have the plastic reducing bush in it Tom ? Some wheels have a large central hole and are 'bushed down' with a plastic ( nylon looking white type stuff , usually ) reducer. Was it this that you had drilled out ?

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Leave it with me for the afternoon, Mike .. I'll have a hunt through some old paperwork etc... I've got some contacts that have done this type of thing before for me, but my memory isn't quite what it was :wink: ... but I have it written down somewhere. Admittedly, it was for low-ish pressure...

:lol: "Elk", sorry ! I knew there was a proper name for them !... just couldn't remember what it was ! :lol: .. It was certainly a big thing .. comparable to the size of a shire horse. ! I think we were very lucky, with the weather. .. when we rode to the Cape, ( June/July 2003 )...

Hiya Mike, Thats my kind of field :wink: What's you're tube OD ? - ( i note you have 1" mentioned, is that the nominal bore or the OD ? ... knowing the wall thickness will help too, if you've got it. ) I'm guessing you say not a standard plumbers type bender, in an effort to avoid...

Second what Paul said... Nice job ! Thats an attractive bowl... great ! 8) 8)

:lol: :lol: Aren't most of the Eastern Europeans gone, or at least on their way back now ? Latvia, Poland and Romania are a better prospect then being here, after all that. :wink: It must have been like finding the end of the rainbow, but discovering the 'pot' was full of dogturds for them...

Good Stuff, Dave ...... Progress continues apace ! The presentation pens look excellent... let us know how they are 'received' ! :wink: 8)

:wink: Its surprising how the 'interviewee' can actually control the interview, without appearing pushy. Works a charm, every time. :wink:

Ah, Ok ! Cheers for coming back about it. Hope you find an alternative route for it somewhere. Thanks again ! 8)

Exactly Brad .. "Cut the cloth accroding to the circumstance at hand". :wink: :D

Agree with Mr Naylor there, totally. Everyone , in any organisation which received payment from an end-user / customer or whatever you would like to call it, is involved in customer service. Just because within that given organisation, your role isn't front-line customer contact face-to-face...
