Teflon gasket material

Postby Yummyrum » Mon Mar 25, 2013 6:59 pm

Saw this in Blackwoods Catalog hard copy. http://www.blackwoods.com.au/search/ptf ... /307760579
Thought that looks just the shit :handgestures-thumbupleft:

Went into my local store to ask how much .

After they resuscitated the sales attendant ,he told me $1400.00 a sheet .

Then they had to resuscitate me :laughing-rolling: .

Scared as all shit I asked how much were the natural cork sheets ?

$20.00 a sheet .

Yeah .Cool .Whoop whoop.

But you need to buy a minimum of 7 sheets in a pack :angry-banghead:

Edit :just worked out you could get around 200 4" gaskets at about $7.50 each and then there's the area in each of these for a 3" and then a 2".
But it won't be me doing a group buy and sitting around with a scalpel.
