Title: Chain block and tackle where to buy in Leicester
Post by: Varche on 30 November 2010, 21:17:12

Anyone know where I could buy and take away a chain block and tackle lift like this one from a supplier in the Leicester area.

Got one of those myself earlier in the year. Exactly the same. IIRC, it was £18 + postage. :o

Does the job well, though. :y

Get it shipped to a member in the area and collect?

I shall be flying in and then driving back next day, so can't risk the post and the vendor doesn't offer courier.
