Do you glue or staple once joined or are they just friction fit?

Hi All

Anyone used the Mainline All Size stretcher bars? What is the verdict?

They look simple, albeit a wee bit more expensive.
Are they just a friction fit?

Thanks Mark I have had a few interested but they all seem to be from the other side of the planet, so transport is the big issue. I'm sure anyone in a 50 to 60 mile radius who was interested it would have gone. Summer is here and I guess people are thinking or taking their holidays. I have not pushe...

Sensible offers will be considered.

Hi All Still for sale. I think I need to be more clear about the size and weight of this machine. You will need a large hatchback or estate car to collect this. It needs a 2 man lift, I will help out there. The price is very keen, it is just the transportation that is putting people off. To help out...

There is a air pinner made by Hitachi that looks really good at $89, but even with a shipper that gives me...

On saying that, what David McCormack said was an earlier concern that the inner spacers would stay wh...

What concerns me with this type of assemb...

It is.

Thanks Steve

I am told this is a very capable piece of kit, it's in great condition and very cheap for what it is and based on what it cost new.
