amateur Posted June 6, 2017 Share #31 Posted June 6, 2017 That isnot true for the Netherlands. at import, there is 6% VAT, and that is over the bookprice, including the costs of transport. Jan Canute and tkay11 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkay11 Posted June 7, 2017 Share #32 Posted June 7, 2017 Sorry about that, Jan. My lack of knowledge. I thought that it was because we were in the EU that there were no customs charges on books.

It's just the shipping that's expensive. I asked one of my relatives to bring the books over with him from the USA when he was visiting. If you're visiting or based in London you can PM me and you could visit to see the books in my home. Tony Thanks mate. But I'm finally Decide going to order it from the United States. I know that it will be a little more expensive. But losing a few extra pounds not will be end of the world:) In any case once again Thank you. tkay11, mtaylor and Canute 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ainars Apalais Posted May 16, 2020 Author Share #52 Posted May 16, 2020 (edited) Hi When I started this project, I was most afraid how i will make brass Gangway brackets. I had never really worked with brass and don't have any experience with soldering.

Ainars Apalais Posted November 2, 2020 Author Share #60 Posted November 2, 2020 Thanks Matt D. To mark up positions for mounting holes i cover required area with masking tape. After a couple of attempts i draw pretty straight and equal positions to drill holes. Matt D, mtaylor and Canute 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
