Andy refuses to pay for a Quaife big tooth anyway. The tight fisted cnut.

K+N are ok. We fell out with them over a couple of boxes that last a very short time but they are probably one of the better ones.

We used Stephensons for my Dad's Quaife and it has held up so far until he destroyed something else.....

Who is doing your paint work Andy?
