looking for a laminate pull bar
Because me good one has gone amiss? cost £9.95 but for the life of me cannot
remember where I bought it as it was at least 4 years ago. I came across this in B&Q and reminded myself why I never shop there. http://tinyurl.com/3o2fe7 |

The el cheapo one that came in the kit I bought ages ago has lasted for about half a dozen laminate jobs, but now needs hammering back into shape. That one does look a lot better made. -- Dave - The Medway Handyman www.medwayhandyman.co.uk |

To get that last plank down especially next to a plasterboard wall can be difficult as the pull bar is a bit feeble and you can not lever against the wall if plasterboard. I just put rubbed the tongue & groove with some abrasive paper to give a snug but not too tight fit, then assembled with plenty of glue. Done 3 rooms like that without failure. The first room still has a gouge on the floor face from when the bar jumped. |

You know that plate with two guide rods you get with most routers? just got to find a steel flat bar for the puller lever. :-) |
