Good range of products :cool:

They are good prices Les and a good range,

It put me off using silicon because of the price so i used old bits of hose, hoover hose and a beading tool from B&Q. Shall be silicon on the next cars.

Yes do a search on Locost, was only a few quid but you need to modify it slightly but it works a treat.

The molds are about done with the first castings coming off in a few days, can't wait to put up some sneaky pics - don't tell chris though.

Hi, les im sorry and a bit embarrased its been ages since you sent me the plans i took some to staples the other day to get a photocopy so i could send them back to you but they wanted a kings ransom to do it and only b/w so looking elsewhere for a more reasonable price
as for the kart so far its still in planning ive got wheels a seat a running lawn mower engine even got a diff from an invalid carriage the other day i remembered i have a rowing m/c in the loft which may make the chassis a bit easier looks about right size and nice rounded corners too
had a bit of a run of injurys over the last month or so first shoulder then leg now back going back to work tomorrow hopefully all better soon
anyway sorry its been so long really will have to get my self back on the case
