With “0” rings about £15:00
Being made as a barrow job as a favour.

Re: alloy bufkin pipe
Visited machine Shop this morning. Some discrepancies on sizes when comparing the one I bought compared to the drawing provided.

Re: alloy bufkin pipe
I should have jumped in earlier, if we accept that the Bufkin pipe is the gold standard with no fitting issues reported, then the dimensions on the phone screen drawing are exactly the dimensions of the two genuine bufkin pipes I have. The brass pipe dimensions are subtly different which may and may not be an issue.steve2003rs6 wrote: ↑Mon Feb 15, 2021 3:14 pmE6C3F775-A54D-4EC0-BE8D-B429039626D7.png0732841F-FDE2-4D2C-91EA-B67E6167F76A.jpegVisited machine Shop this morning.

Re: alloy bufkin pipe

Must admit this is a very good price which I doubt I will be able to replicate in the future.
Pleased my old work mates are still in the game.
