    Hi Ken,

    Postal costs have increased enormously in the past 12 months ! I posted a package to Au some time ago, which was expensive, that same package today would have cost just short of £21 UK pounds, 60% more. They say inflation here is only 2.5%...

    In the shops, prices are going up 10 to 15% almost monthly. Butter for instance has gone up from £0.90p, to over £1.50 in less than six months. In fact anything oil or fat related has virtually doubled in price.

    It will be even worse next year, after Brexit !
    Best Regards:
    Baron J.

    Hi.. for those who have them.. this is the type I am looking for.. approx 3mm dia shank .. sometimes these small taps have tiny shanks that defy all but the tiniest holders.
