Made some speaker stands using Speedfit push together square steel tubing
some 4 years ago. Materials cost 115.50 plus VAT.

Just re-ordered the same to make another pair. 133.90. So about a 15%
increase. Carriage costs exactly the same.

Thought the world was awash with steel?


It is probably priced in dollars and the pound is about 18% down on the
dollar since this day four years ago.


But weren't we told leaving the EU would make imports cheaper?
