I've got some off cuts you can have, and I'm sure I could let you have a 2m length as well. Most of the off-cuts are pretty short, as I was quite economical with my cutting, but for practising joints they will be fine

Let me know, I'm only in Sutton, so could drop them off whenever.

Pete,

If you are driving down the A303 near Andover next week I have a load of off-cuts you can practice with to your harts content.

Cheers Ginge
