I always thought they were just to help separate them when they were stacked (nested together) in the shop, and to avoid damage thereto. -- Bob Eager rde at tavi.co.uk PC Server 325*4; PS/2s 9585, 8595, 9595*2, 8580*3, P70, PC/AT.. |

I'm in the process of cleaning up an old 1968 (as date-stamped on the taps)
stainless steel sink + drainer + taps. I'm very happy with the result, come up very well and the sink depth is much more than you get nowadays... and it has only cost me a new sink waste & plug...
