B&Q Grids

[Katie Tiger]

I drove over to Castleford yesterday morning to collect two boxes of these as the Hull stores wouldn't order some in for me.

I may have been naive, but I thought that the connectors would be with them seeing as they're on the box and on the instruction manual, but there is nothing in either box.

Should there be or should I have been told when ordering/in the store that I would need to purchase the connectors?

Really frustrated as we've only just settled down to try constructing something and B&Q are now closed for the day!

Hi,
I got some grids from B&Q and there were connectors in the box I'm sure. I didnt use them though - i just used cable ties - lots of cable ties,

Thank you.

I thought I was going mad as it shows you them on the box and on the instruction notice inside. Nowhere does it say to be bought seperately :{

 

[CandyFloss]

No, you're not going mad..... well you might be but not because of the grids

Happy cage building

IMO Cable ties are better than the connectors - so get building! !

I always thought my OH was a numpty, but he really is now.

I've just checked the boxes that he flung to the other side of the garage/workshop, and it appears the boxes have secret compartments containing 26 connectors...'nice one' he said and is now sawing a load of old gutter type piping and drawing out an 'architectural masterpiece' mallethead mallethead mallethead
