Looking for one in either the East Sussex, or Bedfordshire area.


I have tried all the local to Bexhill ones, HSS, Brandon, Wellers, etc... But they keep saying it is too specialist, or it's been years since somebody has asked for one.


I don't fancy drilling and plug welding any more.


So, where can I get hold of one?


Many thanks,


Matt

Most buy them on eBay for around £250 and then sell them on when they're finished with them.

Loads for sale on ebay and similar sites, I kept searching for about a month and one came up on gumtree for £100.

Ahh. I'll have a look on gumtree then, didn't think about looking there.

I do need it for next week though, so may have to splash out.

Mk2, do you still have yours? And are you willing to part with it? I can happily collect.

Got one £45 for the week.

Needed it like next week though, only workshop time I can get.

I'll keep a look out next time for the next project.
