Where can I get a meat hook?
with going to an abottoir.
Need to get up the ladders at the weekend and burn paint off the top of the front elevation as the lenght of the gas bottle hose is to short for leaving it on the bay roof I need to hang it on one of the rungs of the ladder near to where Im working. TAI |

Have you got a decorators' supplies shop (e.g. Crown decorators centre) near you? They certainly used to sell hooks for paint kettles. -- Howard Neil |

Need to get up the ladders at the weekend Don't use a meat hook, they've got sharp pointy ends! Real decorator's suppliers (Crown are good) sell hooks. Otherwise bend one up. If you're worried about dropping it, use a loop of baler twine instead of an S. If you need easy attachment _and_ you're worried about dropping it, a karabiner. If you're working near me and you have the local yoof nicking things while you're up the ladder, try a carbine. |

Just about any kitchen shop. Given that you are not using it to impale a half side on get one that has balls at the end rather than being sharp. You'll be grateful if you slip. http://www.akroservices.co.uk/meat_hook-J730.php http://www.goodcookshop.com/froogle.do?id=1263 I can't remember where we get the ones we use with balls instead of points. |

Have you got a decorators' supplies shop (e.g. Crown decorators centre)
near you? They certainly used to sell hooks for paint kettles. Any chinese supermarkets nearby ? - they'd probably do something suitable too... |

TAI I use a *large* cable tie. Its releasable and is very useful for other things like fixing the top of the ladder to things to stop it falling. |
