Measuring pole hose
« on: April 25, 2009, 04:24:04 pm »
when you are measuring pole hose do you measure the inside or the outside, i  ordered some and i measured the inside at 5mm so ordered 5mm (far too thin), now just checking before i click confirm payment with gardiners that its 8mm and the outside of the hose..

cheers

is the 8mm the inside (id) or outside (od) this confused me big time at the start  ;)
