Washing machine....
I give up! I'm trying to find a "joining piece" to attach the length of
waste pipe coming out of the back of my washing machine to the extension piece I have just bought. They don't seem to exist. Tried all the usal suspects - screfix etc. Any ideas? Thanks |

But rubber hoses and clips (Jubilee) as used on motor vehicles can be very handy. Sylvain. |

They don't seem to exist. Tried all the usal suspects - screfix etc. Any ideas? An offcut of 15mm copper tube with Yorkshire straight couplers soldered on either end and some jubilee clips. The solder 'rib' on the Yorkshire gives a good location for the jubilee clip needed to make it watertight. -- *If you think nobody cares about you, try missing a couple of payments * Dave Plowman London SW To e-mail, change noise into sound. |
