Lol I did, they f****d it up and cost twice as much!! Its only the circuitry we get made out of the UK, the rest is moulded abs assembled here...in Devon!! Lol Be moving into our new place in 3 weeks, the plan is to have our own pick and place so we can build our own circuit boards when we need them.. still got to get the parts to build them though ....and 90% of that comes from the far east....lol Edited February 27, 2020 by NEWKID 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If one good thing comes out of all this Corunna Virus thing it will be that we should be less global in lots of regards and start employing out own people (in Europe) to make our own things. The Don has figured this out already...... 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The Don has figured this out already...... Couldn't agree more...we are trying!! Lol We brought 100 boards from a Midlands company, full payment up front, 19 boards had faults, 7 couldn't be used at all..we had a desperate order to get out so fixed the faults ourselves but recorded it and sent details, hoped for a bit of back up etc ..the said unless we sent them back to them nothing they could do... cost 26 quid a board, we pay 12.36 from China.. get 500 a time so far 6 faulty boards in all....its mental mate...and this was a big UK electrical company.. but we are small fry to then at the minute so they dont care... Hence get it all in house, you've got to start the revolution anyway you can!! Lol 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Trade between countries is never a level playing field because wages are so dissimilar. In one sense China has been propping up the west's economies by supplying endless cheap produce. We would be a lot poorer if it hadn't been for the likes of China. On a personal note though that f***ing Coranavirus has effected stock markets so dramatically my pension will take a dip. f****n chinks, I will probably die from the virus too.lol Edited February 27, 2020 by jukel123 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We are so f***ing ordinary and two bob about things sometimes......the culture of service and back up in Britain can be non existent. Its almost become the norm. Its what you get for breeding 3 generations with no f***ing pride about themselves, their country or anything else ! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
