Considering that Screwfix seem to have ramped prices up left and right
lately, that's not bad!

The clearance ones are a standard 38mm endcap - the 10mm is the radius
of the the curve of the bullnose I think. Worked fine on the Howdens
worktop I was fitting it to.

Different strokes etc. I find them a cut above the sheds & builders
merchants.

Wickes never seem to have anything I want. However, I only try them
occasionally. I have accounts with Wolseley UK (Plumb Center / Build Center
etc) and Newey & Eyre and will go to those as a first choice.
