My brother got some threaded bars from this company in Cork, might be worthwhile to see if they could deliver To Waterford. http://www.gwscork.ie/product-pages/975-A2-and-A4-Stainless-Steel/3/

I figure i will need about 3 mtrs of 10mm to be safe so how much you reckon that would be and will they deliver dcalnan ? ;D

Woodies and B&Q in Cork both have threaded bar if you're ever going over this direction. I think there's a fairly big B&Q in Waterford but I guess you have probably tried there.

Most of the easily available stuff is galvanised!

Farmers co-ops and the like maybe will have A2 stainless.

Could you use some qualpex or copper pipe? You might have some lying around.

Great idea there Garry and if i can't get the threaded stainless i will probably go that route. ;D
