£35 for a small piece of steel with a couple of holes drilled?  :signLOL: :doh:

That's outrageous for that piece of steel. You could have knocked that shape out of some 6mm plate in about 5 minutes!!!

Thanks

Try not and loose faith...

I've had some bad luck buying bits and pieces on the Internet.....

But overall it's been a really positive experience. Especially when you purchase from other forum members. I tend to shy away from anyone other than trusted suppliers on eBay etc and if I'm buying from individuals try to stick to forum members.

The only problem with this approach is that it limits your access to parts....

Anyways. Sounds like Paradox1 hopefully has a plan for you :smiley: :happy2:
