cedar wood came from declan byrne in carlow 059 9142595 , he has the smaller size of the shelf
the big size isnt and had to be cut from 4 inch thick stock making it more expensive (waste ,time etc)

just to add a source for very cheap cable to use for guy wire ...i,m not sure of new prices but i got all i needed for a new mast
for 20 euros including heavy gauge for use on the ancors out of gormleys scrap yard near cavan ,the wire was the same as we used on the course ,maybe a little thicker and enugh for roughly a 30 foot mast with 4 guys ....any scrap yard would be worth checking out
he also had a couple of nice street light poles with a nice taper all the way up ...interesting places scrap yards !

this might be something for futur interest , was driving along the m50 and noticed a new warehouse with fisher paytkel over it ,i think their washing machine motors can be converted for turbine use , never heard of them in ireland untill now but i might be wrong about that

HI All
Anyone planning to use 1.4mm winding wire. I've been in touch with EC winding wire but they will only sell me a full roll. I need about 8kgs. Anyone know where I'd get that. Otherwise anyone want to go halves on a roll.
Am waking up after the winter and thinking about getting going again.
