weekenny Posted October 14, 2008 Report Posted October 14, 2008 I've noticed most of the links are to US suppliers for assembly items (glue, velcro, etc) Do any of the UK guys on here have good places to get Industrial Strength Velcro Tape E6000 Canvas Straps / Webbing Helmet / Armour Padding Cheers Kenny Quote

weekenny Posted October 14, 2008 Author Report Posted October 14, 2008 Cheers for the help guys. Quote
TK6540UKG Posted October 15, 2008 Report Posted October 15, 2008 You can get the first three items from B&Q stores... For the glue, I've found their own brand Clear Plastic Glue does the job just right. Need about 3 tubes for a complete kit assembly though. For the helmet padding... all you need is some knee pads as found in some Industrial overalls....these can be purchased separately. Possibly even find them in B&Q, but never had to look for them though. Quote
troopermaster Posted October 15, 2008 Report Posted October 15, 2008 Yeah I've seen those foam knee pads in B&Q, but never E6000. I'll be down there at the weekend to have a look for it. Quote
weekenny Posted October 16, 2008 Author Report Posted October 16, 2008 I'll get myself down to B&Q for a look, Cheers. Got the E6000 from a popular auction site Quote
nice-biscuit Posted October 16, 2008 Report Posted October 16, 2008 I got the pads from B&Q. E6000 from the Living Doll shop mentioned above. Velcro from the Bay. Gundam does a nice set of canvas bits and they are not expensive to ship. Industrial Popper? I can give you the link to that if you need it. Quote
