Huh, don't you just love it when two items you purchased separately end up in the same parcel because you're an idiot and didn't realise you purchased both items from the same supplier!!

well done Zandy halfway to Overlord status.
Think I may have ordered stuff on ebay from the same supplier but they have never come in the same parcel !

Yep, that's happened to me as well. I've ordered a couple of items at the same time from the one supplier, and they arrived on the same day in separate parcels. It's stupid how some things work!!

slowly getting the parts together Zandy. Sounds like the neck shouldn't be far off so you can make a start !

Question regarding the Locking Tuning Machines.
These are pretty dry inside, is there any particular form of lubrication that is suggested for them?

as for lube - what about one of the bicycle dry gear lubes - i'm pretty sure you don't want to go putting oil in there
