Now I could nick 'em from a site I guess 😳 but otherwise what do I do - approach a geezer on a truck with a few quid or what ? (and what's a few quid?). Is it actually possible for a member of the public to buy new somewhere ? (I see you can on ebay, even with delivery (pretty steep, obvz!) but that just seems ridiculous when the stuff's everywhere)
They don't have to be pretty, just fairly clean and straight.
What do I do ?
Couple of 10 or 15 ft ones would do fine
I just went to a scaffolding firm. Asked and they sold me a few. The one I went to would not sell used. £1 a foot new. Try not to go early when everyone is Trying to leave or late when everyone is trying to unload/ reload and go home obveosuly.
As above, I just turned up at the yard in a quiet time and they were happy to sell boards etc.
Curious as to what to OP is planning?
I want a 5ft length as well to support a chain hoist between 2 6x2 timbers
Curious as to what to OP is planning?
A 10 or 15 foot wide half pipe ?
OK, thanks y'aw - seems there's a scaffolding firm registered (on google) a few hundred yards away from my house at a residantial address. Might just go & knock on the door at some point, hopefully he can bring his work home with him
those who're wondering: see Project Baylon
I stole some when I last needed some. But I was 14 and I was just making a homemade chopper 🙂
