Great solution there Ben

You could probably make a few £££ by selling them

[Benn]

You dont know what this job has cost me.... If anyone else pays what i have i'll be amazed.

Is that cheap or expensive then can be both ways with what you said there

[nova_stee]

To buy the proper rose joints isnt cheap though

Mmm looks fine; he's taken more from the knuckle than Martin did on mine and the inserts required a press (+glued).

If the bill for inserts & knuckle machining exceeds £80 I would take issue; if they don't back down, I'd not use them again (tell him that too) assuming there's another machinist you can use.

Reading the comment two down, these are expensive! More than i thought.

Nope.

These will need pressing in from what i've tried this evening, They dont sit all the way in, get tight so must just wanted pressing in the last bit. Think it's worth glueing them in? I've been thinking out it this afternoon...
Its more than 80£.

Had a suspicion someone had latched on to the benefit as an excuse to start charging the earth. Keep this in mind always when you have the option to physically take the business elsewhere; imo don't even go into what it's for, in this instance just ask "can you reverse the taper on this pls & how much?"

Yes, I would get the epoxy in it too while you can.
