    You haven't compromised on anything to date so the flue is no exception.
    What's the minimum buy amount? Is it sensible to buy that amount and sell them on the forum ,gumtree, eBay? It is winter its the season to sell flues Just a thought

    Regards Dave
    Thanks Dave I thought about that but minimum buy is 100. But I haven't been able to find a supplier directly only things like alibaba. Don't have that sort of money.

          Really all of your build but the inner arch or the inner part of the tapered arch is very nice.

            Russell I see, still get lost with terminology but I have many others to thank that went before me for developing the technique.

            Very appreciative of them all and thank you for the compliment Russell, feel though the hard part is left to do, the last 4 courses and that landing I'm playing with.

              Colin,
              Have you seen/considered a flashing cone as a transition to you flue?

              The gas heating brochure here is a read
              PRODUCTS

              Also have a local steel fabricator who will roll a flue in 1200mm
              Cheers

                        AWF Sheetmetal

                        try these guys

                        I used to get lots of metal bent by them Im pretty sure they do SS and down pipes so they should be able to make a flue

                        again years ago

                          Hi tropical

                          have contacted them too. I'm beginning to think what I am seeking is not possible. but as Dave pointed out I haven't compromised at this point so why should I start now.

                            Hey tropical

                            Well check out awf sheet metal. Someone else put me on to them. The quote I got still too high st 680. Then I would still need a cap.
                            When I rang awf they seemed to be more reasonable.
