I think it was about 3 weeks and I received an email saying sorry for the delay my order has been shipped.

Buy the look on the RF Central forum he seems to be in one of his slow periods . I don't think it is his main source of income and just a sideline that he does from time to time. Just my opinion.

Well it took me awhile to fine one. I went to the local auto parts store in Pambula with no luck. Then I was in Canberra and thought should find one here, but 1 Bunnings and 3 different auto parts stores and no luck.
I got one in the auto parts store in Eden. So I guess it's just a matter of finding out who has them, all the auto stores had boxes behind the counter that they look in.

If you can't get one near you let me know and I'll send you one.

Excuse my ignorance but wtf is a roll pin?! is it the thing you punch the pin out with or a replacement pin in case the original gets bent?

Thanks!

g'Day wb243,
it is a hollow pin usually made from sheet steel and formed into a tight coil. It has "give" in it to allow easy fitting but takes up the slack in the hole for a snug fit. Used in light duty jobs.

It's a replacement pin, but they are not solid they are a rolled piece of steel with a slit length wise . Some have a slight taper on them.
hope I put that right.
