Got to stage 19 now. The fire extinguisher pipe is too short and won't reach the chassis mounted nipple. I'm quite happy to buy a length of this pipe and cut my own but I wouldn't have a clue what to buy

Try stripping the core out of some small black wire such as old earphones/buds use.
I bought a cheap set from a £1 shop just to get the wire.
Very useful.

Just read about this all too common dilemma of parts not supplied or don't fit and so glad that Roy has come up with a solution.
Just goes to show that there are still members on here who are prepared to offer their experience and advice.
Brilliant. Let's keep it up.

Always useful to have spare thin wires. I've got a plastic bag full of them.BigGrin
