  3. Was told that certain models are afloat- not aware of ship name but left China about 4 weeks ago so imminant depending on allocated port.

  12. A bad attitude usually stems from the fact of not receiving the answer wanted!
  13. Have a look at the Scalelink website- they have a range of plastic centred wheels which may suit your purpose- not knowing sizes you will have to search their products.
