Polyurethane glue is easy to find, finding it at a reasonable price is the hard part. For a while, the only glues I found were €14 per tube (310ml), Bison and Pattex. Screwfix have a cheap alternative for those in the UK, but they don't ship to the continent. At Hornbach I found Soudal 60A Constructielijm, I think it was about €7 per tube. Works OK for me.
Cannot order online. Since Hornbach is German, I guess it can be found in Germany too.

Warnex supplied this to me some 2 years ago so the figures may have changed but I imagine not drastically:DAVID_L_PERRY wrote:This is the manufacturers web site, should be able to sort out a distributor from here.

I have also found the Selenium Horn for the O15 at
http://www.nuloop.com/
though I understand this is not that crucial, as long as you get a horn with similar dispersion characteristics.

The prices per kg are very nice, but I don't think I will ever use 24kg. Hard to find small quantities of Warnex for the DIY-er. Aldcrofts don't ship to the continent in small quantities either.0vid wrote:Warnex supplied this to me some 2 years ago so the figures may have changed but I imagine not drastically:DAVID_L_PERRY wrote:This is the manufacturers web site, should be able to sort out a distributor from here.

Re: Links to everything you need for your BFD-build, in Europe.
decent quality countersink bits can be one of the most valuable tools you could own, after some searching i finally found these.
http://www.trend-uk.com/en/UK/productli ... sinks.html
i got the snap/cs/4, produces a nice 2mm hole and a good countersink hole and the depth of the drill bit is adjustable.
they are also available in tungsten.
i can also recommend ebay for various items, i got acoustic foam, styrofoam, cabinet paint and other things from ebay within the uk
good service, speedy delivery.

Re: Links to everything you need for your BFD-build, in Europe.
+1 for the Tuff Cab paint from BlueAran. Delivered to Ireland extremely well packaged.
Does anyone know where I can source the MCM-55-2421 driver for a T-18 in Europe? I currently have one on order from an ebay seller in the States but due to the recent hurricane their ordering/shipping has been heavily delayed. Since I want to make a second T-18 anyway I am going to need another driver so I may as well try to source something from Europe if possible whilst I wait for the one from the US. MCMelectronics in the States won't ship to me here in Ireland either unfortunately.
Thanks in advance.

Re: Links to everything you need for your BFD-build, in Europe.
I don't think you can get the MCM from resellers in Europe. The Tangband 8 is available from several places. You can PM forum member sabbelbacke. I got mine from Herzi, see website HzH Audio.

Re:
You can get the black from Thomann http://www.thomann.de/gb/warnex.html in 1 or 12 kg quantities. 1kg was quite enough for one Omni 12 Tallboy. They'll ship anywhere in Europe, and are very quick to ship.AntonZ wrote:The prices per kg are very nice, but I don't think I will ever use 24kg.

That is very good news! We don't have a European Leland clone, nor do we have "Northern European Sound & Light"
, but gotta love Thomann. Thanks Rune.
