Sixinchman - where abouts are you? I haven’t looked in a home hardware. I searched all through the electrical section in Bunnings Norwest and came up with zilch. All they have is bulk packs of cable ties. :( I will try a HOME maybe this weekend.
Starch - where abouts are you? I am in Sydney and littlefella is in Victoria by the sounds of it (Geelong is a suburb of Melbourne or something, right? Hope I got that right, never actually been there but know of the names down South since my GF was from Adelaide and rants about “back home” and places along the way hehe) Bunnings is a massive hardware store, almost all of them occupy these huge warehouse structures a couple hundred meters long or so… if they were near you, you couldn’t have missed them ;)
I thought Bunnings originated in WA and then spread outwards, a few years back taking over all the hardwarehouse’s. At least that’s what they told me at our propaganda brainwashing session (bunning’s training) I’m not familiar with places outside of NSW, but within this state there seems to be a big bunnings store at every major town the whole length and bredth of my travels which have extended from Sydney city to Campbelltown to Penrith area and up into the mountains, and even beyond up North way near the QLD border. So it’d surprise me if there were any states with no bunnings at all, except maybe central AU around NT area and so forth.
Damn, I want a decent clamp. I’ve been using a hose clamp, but having to use a screwdriver really sucks. I wonder if they’re available on eBay? I would pay for them as would probably quite a few other members!
