Default greenhouse glazing clips, i cant find any correct ones.

have just assembled a second hand green house.
need some more glazing clips.
can not find correct ones.
can only really see 1 type of clip advertised anywhere which are are similar to what i require. which is known as a G type.
http://www.greenhousepeople.co.uk/sp...glazing_clips/
these are nearly correct but the angled side is too long.tried these and they do not work.
better explained by my drawing attached. i need the ones on the right.
i believe the green house is a Crittall made.

are several types, mine were the W wire ones, but there are several other
types

That's probably because the original has been posted via Gardenbanter
and they don't bother telling their subscribers that most news servers
on the Usenet, where the posts end up, will kill any binary attachment
for a text only groups such as uk.rec.gardening.

Hi Gary,

Try the link below. I've never needed to use them, but it looks like a very
useful site. If they don't stock what you want, they may be able to make it
for you.

www.gcraft.co.uk

Good luck.

Spider

Your posts are appearing elsewhere on perhaps thousands of news servers
that don't accept any form of attachment because the newsgroups that
gardenbanter leach into are text only.

Despite the claims made by gardenbanter, uk.rec.gardening has absolutely
nothing to do with that organisation and you don't have to register with
anyone to post to it.

You won't get the info you're looking for. This is a forum that Garden
Banter takes posts from and publishes them as if they originated there.
It's very unfair on people who think Garden Banter is a real gardening
forum. It's a commercial site that uses the work of others to promote
itself. I REALLY HOPE EVERYONE READING GARDEN BANTER READS THIS.
Join uk.rec.gardening and talk direct to people who have no axe to
grind, don't intersperse the group with hard sells (professionals are
allowed a limited number of ad. lines in their sig.file here) and where
you'll meet and talk to people at all stages of gardening knowledge and
development.

And as soon as it leaves Gardenbanter to be read by anyone else all
these attachments are removed by some news servers. The remainder of the
news servers possible discard the post because it has a binary
attachment.

uk.rec.gardening doesn't exist in one place. In common with the rest of
the Usenet the newsgroup exists in parallel on hundreds, and possibly
thousands, of news servers operated by ISPs and other third parties.

These organisations peer with each other to pass the posting on from
their own customers. I'm posting this via a Zen Internet server, who
will pass the message on to their peering partners within a few seconds,
and in turn these partners will pass on the message to their partners.
At some time my message will arrive on the Gardenbanter server.

When you post to Gardenbanter the reverse happens but because
Gardenbanter may not be sending your post in an acceptable format (text
only and without attachments) the down-line servers with either discard
the message or only allow the text only portion through. I suspect many
would just discard the message without passing it on.

Gardenbanter may allow certain formats on it's own server but don't
expect the rest of the world to honour them. Many organisations have
dropped any form of binary newsgroup in the past few years because it
cost too much money and effort to support them.
