Title: Tin Price
Post by: Brian on March 11, 2026, 06:01:04 AM
As mentioned in another post tin has gone up in price,  when we started to cast KA low was around the £25 a kilo last time I brought it was around £35 a kilo that was 6 months ago, now the same supplier it's up to £78 a kilo, so as you can see the price has doubled and then you add post it is getting expensive ( I have look around but this is still the cheapest)  to make figures so bear this in mind when you next order ???

Hello Brian,  I have some 10 K of unpainted flats at home. At a speed of 2 flats per month, and being close to 80, I cznnot paint a lot before going on vacation for ever in the underground ...
I could send you a good part unpacked and comprssed in boxes to melt them as raw material for your passion ... Depreciation is already done ...
Only problem, I am leaving ofr a  few months in two weeks, so it can't be done before the fall, time to sort out.
