Hi Philip,

It has been a few years since I was in the UK, but your mountmaker colleague would likely find these of use.

This one is in the US but does ship internationally.

Hi all

I work at the BM – we buy most of our standard tools at the usual places – Screwfix, Axminster etc., and get most specialist materials etc. from PEL. We also scout about for more specialist tools and get them from a range of suppliers as needed. If you want to put me in touch with the mount maker I can advise them directly if that would help?

Thanks!

Leonora
