I chose the one from the bank that my salary gets paid into.

How long have you been a salaried employee? (with a work permit I assume) .....you will need a few pay slips up your sleeve before they will consider you.

Roll them up and when the relations come round and start eating your wildlife smack them over the head with them.

10 cartons of beer, 3 cartons of cigarettes, 20kgs of various dead cow cuts and plenty of veggies stocked today.

Gate to my compound is locked and there will be no need to leave before this madness finishes.

only fool here is you.

Poor Spoonie, everything you have said so far proofs that you are talking out of your arse.The impossible price you paid for the item, the statement from the shopowner you bought it from that he NEVER has had original ones and especially your refusal to proof that you are right by simply posting a picture.

I'm leaving the discussion by this, but I feel really sorry for you that you have such a childish attitude that after all this evidence you can't even admit that you have bought a copy item without being aware of it.

Ive been buying my Pizza at Ballita's in Laem Chabang. simply amazing (thin crust) pizza's for an awesome price.

Well worth the drive.

And the awesome price is how much?

No need to go so far next time. There's a Balilla's Pizza on Soi Chaiyapreuk, Jomtien; it's simply not bad.

To be honest it is quicker for me to drive to Laem Chabang than to the brightside of Pattaya.

The price listed on hobby king is Bt.1288. I was merely rebutting your claim Bt.1500 is too cheap for a genuine one. postage costs has nothing to do with list price.

You just keep burying that head in the sand, it suits you.

The RX8 is an awesome chassis and really likes (so will you) an LS7 conversion.

The buyer can check the serial number.

Hi Nick,Woodt and spoonman.

In the Uk I pay £210.00 ( 10500 Bht ) for a 2.5 x 1.25 x 3 mm satin finished sheet of 304 L grade and 287.00 ( 14350 Bht ) in 316 grade.

I pay £ 42.00 ( 2100 Bht) for a 4 mt length of 100 x 3 mm flat bar as stainless flat is not supplied in 6 mt lengths in the Uk

If I was making gates I would use approx 2" od polished tube with a wall thickness of 1.5 mm .

This would be tig welded using an inert gas such as Argon .

The welds will need polishing out on completion.

You will only need to pickle and passivating the welds to remove any mild steel pickup from using the wrong types of sanding discs or wire brushes that are not suitable for Stainless Steel.

Heavy tube is classed as nominal bore pipe with different wall thicknesses to suit the required pressure and is not supplied as polished tube.

I should imagine that I pay a lot more for my materials in the uk than you do in Thailand as yours will most probably come from

China.

When I visit my Son who lives in Thailand I am amazed at the neglect of health and safety on site.

It is a nightmare here in the Uk as we now have to supply Method Statements ans risk Assessments for any work that has to be done on site with a copy of 3 rd party insurance to cover for any accidents on site.

We are not allowed to work on site at high level without a safety harness even if it is 2 mts from ground level.

Oue welders will have to use react alight shields now to prevent arc eye not like the Thai welders who use goggles and a scarf around their heads.

What do you all do for a living in Thailand it seem you are all involved in fabrication work of some kind.

I am semi retired but I still get involved with fabrication work in the food industry and pipe fabrication and installation in many companies and I sub out the work to companies that I used to use when I was working full time when I ran a fab shop with 20 employees

Hi Ryan.

All the safety stuff. we too are bound by law to use it. Just cause Somchai out on the street doesn't don't think for one second a legitimate business does as well.

As for what I do. I design and fabricate bespoke armoured vehicles.

I apologise for mixing up the pipe and tubing terminology as the only time I have ordered it was for the chrome moly tubing I use in race car roll cages and chassis.

Since stainless is sold by the weight and my math teacher always taught me that 5 mm of a certain material weighs 5 times as much as 1 mm of the same material, I think that would also mean it cost 5 times as much.

In an ideal world that would be true however we buy the following. (all are 304 and dims of 1200 x 2400)

1.5mm = Bt.2800

2.0mm = Bt.3600

3.0mm = Bt.7400

Lemme guess, you want to see the invoice or you will call my prices fake.................

Tell you what. I have mine for sale along with the HPI Baja 5B it charges the batteries for, sling me the 55k I want for it all and you can see the serial number for your self.

I await your reply saying my Baja is not a HPI but instead a Rovan or King Motor copy..................bwahahahahahahaha

no point in posting any pics cause Iam not the one arguing. have a look at the hobbyking link I edited into my previous post.

Ohh look. First hit on a google search for "Tisco".

http://www.tisco.co.th/en/index.html

lol so the China copies have dodgy serials. now we have Thai copies with no serials.

I bought mine from him when he was located around the corner on the bypass bout midway between khao noi and plub wan.

Funny you should mention that Hobbyking sell originals and are way more more expensive than Bt.1500.

Here is the one I bought. it is Bt.1288 at hobby king.

http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__6478__IMAX_B6_AC_Charger_Discharger_1_6_Cells_GENUINE_.html

I have purchased a lot through aliexpress. am satisified with the quality of stuff that arrived.

Jesse, I purchased my imax B6 here in Thailand (infact at a small hobby store just round the corner from home). was Bt1500. is not fake.

Been to the shop already, it's a fake. No serial number.

mine has. but if they are now selling fakes it is a moot point.

Good luck in your search to buy an authenticate one.

I saw 1.5 mm up to 5 mm you would need to be herculean for those sizes!

what ?

So how much does a 1200 x 2400 x 3mm sheet of 304 cost ?

For 100mm x 3mm x 6m I paid 1650.

That is 600,000sqmm. 1200 x 2400 is 2,880,000 sqmm. It is sold by weight but as an estimate it works out to 7900 Baht.

Your estimate is damn close. last invoice lists it at Bt.7500.

Ok then can you list the od, wall thickness and grade of the stainless tube you can get. Iam only interested in sizes between 15mm and 40mm.

Thanks.

Yep good idea, illegal activities are not allowed to be discussed on TV.

So how much does a 1200 x 2400 x 3mm sheet of 304 cost ?

Yes they do, 6 days a week 12 hours days. Oh and before you start, they get free accommodation, good pay and bonuses and they are all long term employees. I would v also add I have a lot of thai friends who work here in Rayong for major companies and they think nothing of a 12 hour day, more the norm. Incidentally I never employ women either

And 4 hours overtime per day as well I assume. would hate to think you are deliberately breaching the Thai Labour Laws.

Please - I was drinking when I read that. Thought I would choke. I just can't can't believe it. Hysterical.

That's nothing. When we were kids my father got double glazing on all the windows so that us kids couldn't hear the ice-cream van coming.

Well we were so poor, my dad would take us to Kentucky Fried Chicken to lick other peoples fingers.

Greasy box fingers are awesome.
