(Preview)

LPG Gas
(Preview)
ACT has just banned new gas connections in homes from next year. As you have probably found out, it is getting more difficult to get gas bottles refilled over the last few years.

Tyres for the D-Max

Camper trailer metal tie down clip
(Preview)
I find it difficult at times to apply the clip to secure down the top of my Coromal Navigator camper trailer.
The thread on clamp would be perfect. If it was just 20 or 20 cm longer. Life would be much easier.
Has anyone else had this experience?
