Title: Macallister Gutter Vac System
Post by: Walter Pole on July 01, 2012, 09:38:34 am
I recently bought the above from someone on eBay, does anyone know who supplies these as I need to buy some alluminium tubing for more height.

The tubes are 51mm (outer) female and a 47mm (outer) male that slot into each other with an overlapping clip between. I have searched through 10 or so supplies companies without success ???.

If anyone has bought one of these new and can direct me to a supplier I would be very grateful.

Thank you
Mark

Yes I know where you are going...from a private ebay seller who is now working overseas. I have already message him but without response and I've just quoted a 3 story block of flats that I can reach on tip toe which is why I need to buy another 5 or 6 foot section.
