Adaptor Plates (those who had a preference for stainless)

I have spoken to a couple of people, including fabricator/welders, who have advised against making the adaptor plates from stainless plate/thread, as it does not have the same tensile qualities as mild steel. Given that these are going to be highly safety critical items subjected to tensile load, I would not like to be responsible for supplying something which might fail (however small the risk), and would prefer to supply mild steel only.

I am quite happy to order and supply substitute mild steel plates instead of stainless, or refund those who prefer to get their own stainless ones made at their own volition. (I can forward a drawing if anyone would like one).

Please let me know if you are happy to go with the mild steel, and PM me your bank details for the £3 refund: or the full £12.50, if you prefer to source your own.

I apologise for any disappointment this may cause, but I am sure you can understand my concern/reasoning.

Very best wishes to all for the New Year

Mike
