Not being able to get a straight answer from anyone in my dim circle of friends would anyone be able to tell me what these things are called,apart from " metal spinning things "......and if/where they can be purchased ?

They are the things you put your tray on when you go through the scanner at airports.....anyone ?

Yeah I called them the same when worked for a leisure park firm in Plymouth used to make them up different sizes. Try and find the number.

Pallet racking and Mezzanine floor dealers may have a few of them kicking around mate, also if you know of any distribution type warehouses closing down will be the place to look.

Dont let them kick you up the studs for them either, only people that want them want them if you get my drift so other than that they are useless so anything they can get for them is a bonus…..they will have rated them nothing when they cleared them as all the value is in the racking ;) 

Im a bit out the game now but I’ll ask a couple of people tomorrow if they have any kicking about, if they do, I’ll message you ?

Well, if you don’t get any joy second hand give me a shout and I may be able to get you looked after rather than pay “end user” rates…..I’ll try second hand first for you tomorrow ?
