elmoputney Posted March 29, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 My stainless bits arrived yesterday while I remembered how stinky winky the quality is just set them up in tip run required corner, I don't think I will like them for long as my buzz bar bag now weighs more than my bed 😁 but quite happy with the rake on the set up and they seemed sturdy enough time will tell but will probably end up wanting to buy some quality items eventually 😅 B B 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of slight variation on the Std ones you can get,as I am using a goalpost front bar and a narrow buzz bar rear and other bits I had, the quality isn't all that I don't think really needs a proper tap and die cutter set running over them to make them better, the threads are a bit poo on them. Probably good 10 ten yarders but I just know they will annoy me 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well overpriced, I couldn't find any NGT singles anywhere before I bought the KNX pod, I would of had a go at painting em black too, £30 (ish) pound for singles, I would have done sanding at work, painting also. May look for some n have ago too 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then all you need is the threaded uprights and a couple of small banksticks possibly available in black Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think I'm gonna stick with Pods, but think gonna go for 3 rod Licence and up my pod the 3 Rod KNX pod. elmoputney 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
