Hi guys, no sorry, no longer available. The chap who ran the company that manufactured them in Germany has retired & sold the business on. The new owner has 'culled' a load of products that they previously made & pretty mush all the 1400 stuff has gone, unfortunately that includes all 4 of the billet casings.

You'll have to sit in your kitchen & watch the washing machine then, they look exactly the same.

Can I be excused to go sit in the laundry then? Here in the colonies we have a separate room for the washing machine, kitchen is taken up by food preparation appliances...

Actually I do too, cause of how this place got half replumbed before I bought it. But typically we don't.

Learned something then, didnt know no laundries in UK. Not allowed washer in kitchen here, not that anyone would do it. Room has to be waterproofed to Aus standards. My Wife would love it, 25 metre walk down under house to our laundry.

Just a curiosity thing but, if you can't have a washing machine in the kitchen where do you put your dishwasher, isn't it the same principal?

When someone here got charged with putting a kid in the washing machine I wonder if they asked  if it was in the garage, kitchen or the laundry. ??

Agree boss, discussion on billet clear covers shouldn't be allowed in the Laundry Section.    :stir: :whistling:

Well I'm happy to learn crazy laws are not just the perogative of the uk/France :grin: :grin: 

In the spirit of openness, I quite fancy a billet cover with the glass window but I don't fancy paying the price of it and, as my washing machine is in the shower/toilet area, I can get my kicks watching stuff go around and around whilst I contemplate my next movement on the bog :rofl2:
