I'll add my name to the list of people that broke the plastic one and need a replacement part.

Would love some Brass ones, just registered so can't PM.

Can you please email me gpzwain@hotmail.com

I'm in Australia if that makes any difference

Thanks

It's good job you put UK in there as they have a Norfolk in Oz too :lol: It's a topsy turvy world :beer:

As for everyone posting about brass nuts :roll: these are not something that run off a production line. The member in question made a one off batch back when he had some time when making some for himself. I believe work commitments get in the way now.

Was aware that these do not run off a production line. Figured as gl_s_r has not advised that was not doing anymore that he may still have some available. He had replied to Brian on page 4 of this thread on 15th November 2014 (last month) and the reply seemed to indicate no worries with being able to supply more.

Admittedly it was back in September 2013 but he had also posted over the SuperHawk forum "I made some of these in the past and can certainly make some more again if it helps anyone out."

Is anyone able to confirm for sure if gl_s_r is still doing these or if I need to go hunting for another solution?

Thanks

Sorry,

Just seen this thread, I am sending some out to Oz today and sent some to USA at the end of last week.

With these sets gone I have 5 or 6 sets left before I run out and not sure when I can make some next due to machine workloads.

Masterspoon, I will mail you later to get an address and let you know costs etc and see if that agrees with you.

Richy85, let me know if you still need some and I'll sort it out with you.

Anyone else please let me know and I'll have another look at this thread later.

Why ask... sometime you just go to do it and find out?

Mark, Is that mine you are sending to Oz - if so what is the damage. Let me know and I will pay up.

When I punch you you will see that you only have the marks from 4 sets of knuckles as is standard for a human fist.
