    Default pallet wrapping in Sydney

    I have a vice that I bought on ebay that a relation has collected for me, but now I need to get it up to the CQ area...

    I was going to ask if he could wrap it with pallet wrap or stretch wrap or whatever that plastic glad wrap type material is called but need a supplier in Sydney to get some to him so it can be wrapped then it will be ready for transportation...

    Anyone know who sells it in Sydney? He is in the pennant hills area...

    The vice is a ridgid tri-stand that looks like this
    Ridgid 460 Pipe Tristand Vise

    (the legs fold up to form a cone like shape)

    Do you know of any printers? They would be the first mob I would ask.
    I make things, I just take a long time.

    Default Stretch Plastic

    I buy 'glad wrap' to pack my Paulownia. It comes in a carton of 4 by 500 metre rolls and cost around $62.00 delivered to Tyalgum. It's probably the material you want but too much and too big an outlay. Have you thought about a business who supplies restaurants with their large rolls of stretch plastic. Wrap this around enough times and it should achieve what you want for a lot less cost.

    There is an online shop in Sydney but they only sell by the carton.... A 300m X 500mm wide roll is only $9.... But you have to buy 4...

    I thought someplace like bunnings might sell it..

    Probably the same place I buy mine as I use the INTERNET to buy this stuff. $26 .00 for the freight is about right if I remember correctly.

    Bunnings definitely have it, albeit not the wide rolls.

    Put it in a couple of garbage bags and then tape it.
