Ed,
My sentiments exactly - they will soon look a bit worse for wear.
I can obviously source them from here but you will be better served if you
can source them locally - some of ours may in fact come from the US.
If you give me a size I will get you a price, what I find the most expensive
is the cost of postage to the USA.
Bob may also have the answer! If he has a contact perhaps you could get them
made out of 321SS
George
How about a source for the more reasonable priced cones, George. I
obviously don't care about the finish since they will go inside - just the
material and cost. Thanks
Ed
