Just a quick mention of a company I've dealt with over the past couple of days... they have helped me with a small "project" and they have a great range of well engineered "stuff", good to deal with and I thought it'd be worth mentioning if anybody is in the market for any such "stuff"... sorry if this is in the wrong spot mods - I'm sure you'll move it if it is...

This has been posted in the D3/4 section so what bits has this company have that is specific to these - had a look but seems to be generic stuff.

Yep - hours of "reading" there... I got a couple of "stainless steel ball locking pins" for the ladder on my roof top tent, the tent's cover fits so much better if the ladder is removed, and the pins make it a matter of seconds to re-fit the ladder when opening up the tent...

Yes garrycol - their stuff is "generic" but if you have some special little project they may have what you want in the way of fasteners etc in good quality stainless etc - much better than most the crap you get in "the big green shed" for instance and I just thought it's nice to give a local company a pat on the back for good service, plus as Tombie said it's always good to have a list of places to "go to" if you have a need for little bits and pieces...

cheers

I've bookmarked it as well Oldsalt - thanks for that. They have quite a lot of things that I'll be interested in from time to time on various projects - and it looks like they are a lot cheaper than where I have been getting some similar gear recently (also an Australian company, which imports mainly from the US.) I have found that buying a lot of this sort of stuff direct from the US is simply not practical because of the high freight costs.
