    Amen to that George, I suppose it's just the vast market out there that means every niche can be filled by someone simply because the demand exists. It always makes me smile when I see people from the states say they went down to their local DIY shed and bought 10 feet of trapezoidal thread, try that at B&Q or Wickes!

    But have you seen the quality of their DIY gear ?
    Our local fastners outlet keeps trapezoidal on the shelf and they can get it in if it's a non stocked size but you need a reasonable order.
