[QUOTE=SurfinNev;1994894.I think we get ripped off here.[/QUOTE]

Again no centering dooberry, but these are very cheap

I have this extra cheap set - they have a centering point

I've used these on leather, plastic, vinyl, various gasket materials and thin Al.
They're relatively soft so I wouldn't use them for hard materials.

Where do these sellers get their shop front names from?
This is a bit of a crack up

Hey folks, has anyone dealt with M&G Productions/Mag-Pro? M&G Productions
I'm after an AXA QCTP and holders for my AL320G and have been looking around local but quite a few seem to be out of stock, no doubt due to the last couple of years turmoil. The one they have has got to be a cheap Chinese Aloris style copy but it will have to do me for now. I have seen others "massage" them a bit to get a good fit but that's no drama. Any info appreciated
Cheers

G/day Dave, welcome to the forum.
M&G are a pretty good seller and i reckon many in here would have bought something from them, they have also got products in for me that they don't have in stock, eg tool holders for italian style multifix, so if they don't have exactly what you want phone them to see whether they can order in what you need to help you out.

Hey mate, thanks for the reply. I basically wanted to know how legit they are as there are so many scammers out there and I have lost out before. I have emailed them and what I need is out of stock until end of next month so wait until stock arrives.
Cheers,
PS. Not too up on how to reply to people yet ......but I'll learn!

One of the suppliers i use at work now has a online store, Its more industrial level stuff, rather than hobby grade but i thought it might be of use to some of you.

Hi All,
Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing problems with emails from LPR Toolmakers. I am finding nearly every time that Kyle sends me a store email that it's opened and in my 'DELETED' folder. I have tried creating a rule in the past, but it seemed to be a waste of time. Each time it happens I select 'Stop Ignoring' and then move the email to my Inbox and the majority of the time it stays their. I did have one time with one particular email that I had use stop ignoring several times and move it back to the inbox and I ended up pinning that email. The problem occurs both on my personal email which is Hotmail and my business email which is Outlook.
It's not like the email addresses are similar either ie not like [email protected] and [email protected] . They are more like [email protected] and [email protected] . The email addresses that I posted are not my actual email addresses, they are only examples. I am going to contact LPR about the issue, but I thought I would ask on here first to see if anyone else is having the same issue.All The Best steran50 Stewart

Imperial morse tape drills
Imperial morse taper drills seem to be getting very expensive and hard to buy here in aus, they are quite costly to import from the US and even india and england are pricey...
I found this chinese mob that sells morse taper drills in some 0.1mm sizes so you can get pretty close for some sizes bellow 20mm.
I wanted a 9/16" so got a 14.2mm which is a smidge smaller, fingers crossed it will drill a bit oversize, if not i will sharpen it and it will
Also i wanted a 7/16" so i got a 11.1mm, this drill i got from them is a 7/16" drill with 11.1 stamped over the top....anyway you might get lucky as i did and find a size that will suit your needs without having to get a second mortgage on your house...

Hi Stewart, Guys,
A lot of Email problems are caused by the rubbish that is inserted by the third parties that created them ! One reason not to use HTML and prefer plain text.
I by default, do not send MDN's, and automatically refuse them, but third parties know this and embed links and trackers in the mails. I've had a number of instances where the Email from odd senders delete themselves after they have detected that you have viewed or read them.
Shades of big brother !!!Best Regards:

I'm chasing a 12.5mm machine reamer to complete a job for a local school, I trawled aliexpress and no luck, not wanting to spend big bucks on a one-off job, can anyone suggest a source?

Looks like I need to brush up on my search skills, thank you both. I went with the ebay one, likely to be here sooner and at least gives me an illusion of not buying from china.

AliExpress search is crap
I often use google to search within AliExpress
Eg. 12.5mm reamer site:AliExpress.com
Often looking through the related products below a listing will get you more relevant products than the main AliExpress search
