I'm going to get rubber flooring for my flat from therubberflooringcompany.co.uk . I need some names of people who can fit it. I'm based in London. Cheers Ben

I'm trying to find a tensile steel wire to use as a show curtain rail. Does anyone know where I can get one? You often see them as part of the banisters on designer staircases, also used to hold a row of spot lights? I think they have small chrome fitting on each end to tighten. I need something...

cheers!

Is it called a touch latch? thanks Ben

Hi, I've got some Ikea cupboads and want to fit a sytem where I can just push the door to release it, you know the sort of thing? I think there are the right thing but not...

I eventually got one from CF Andersons in colchester they seem to have a large range. They are trade but see what you can do. They also have a branch in London. Another place you might want to try is Wey Plastics in Tooting SW london, they were good but seemed more expensive than CF Andersons...

I've given up on the idea, I think it is going to be too expensive and lots of stress. One day maybe.... Thanks to everyone for the help. btw: I found lots of info here http://www.concreteon-line.com/forum/default.asp

I don't know if you can polish concrete, I think so... I am having so much trouble finding a nice worktop, its either really expensive or that nasty chipboard covered stuff. Going to do a new post, but I need to know where to go to see a selection.

I have the Ikea faktum (sp?) glossy white units, I imagined a super cool concrete urban style, slightly polished worktop look? Doesn't have to be perfect like granite, just needs to look cool. You know when you go to the Tate modern or somewhere like that, that sort of concrete?

Thanks for the reply. I have seen a couple of sites on the web detailing the process, it looks quite complicated. I would be concerned with the issues you metnioned, weight and maintaining it. I can imagine getting the concrete mix right is very hard. Not sure I want to take on a project...

Hi, Just wondering if anyone had any experience making thier own concrete kitchen worktops? Is it possible, what do you need, process etc. cheers Ben
