Cheers Steve. Just going back to a previous post of yours, think they are best made out of plastic, the only issue is how they connect to the adjuster bar. This can be sorted by using a resin, this will stop them coming off again.

The posting limits on items are very strict. 5mm depth is all that is allowed for standard letters now. 5.01mm is ripped to shreds and lost. Anything bigger needs to go large letter size.

Needs to be in a padded envelope to reduce the chance of it being shredded.

srichards. Thanks. That explains a lot. Was sent to me in a standard envelope.
Have asked puggie to send in a padded envelope.
Will get there in the end !

Yeah, that's my bad then. Didn't realise I had to chop the cog before sending it via normal post :D
