Just quailified as a village idiot !

[pappajohn]

I just ordered a sheet of rubber to use as a boot liner to keep the doghairs and muck at bay In my car.

Trawled eBay for a deal and came across what looked like the bargain of the century.

250cm x 250cm x 6mm 'value' sheet for £4.50...thought it was cheap but maybe inferior quality or basically crap, not to worry its only a boot liner.
I even checked that wasnt the square meter price.

Ordered and paid for, then returned to the page.

Then i looked properly........250 MILLIMETERS X 250 MILLIMETERS X 6MM

What the hell can i do with a 10" square bit of rubber ?

I've asked the seller if i can cancel but as its sunday and this is a company rather than an individual i wont know until tommorrow.

Just about big enough to make rubber soles for doggy slippers?
Well, one doggy slipper anyway...

Make yourself a gimp mask?

 

[Bertie Bassett]

[Badknee]

Cut circles out of it for half a dozen sink plugs?

I considered a gimp mask but at 10" square it would only be half a mask.....should i order another 10" square ?

But we dont have half a dozen sinks.

You might stand a chance of selling them on, far more of a chance than selling a ten inch square piece of rubber though!

Handy.............very handy indeed and I'd buy it for my 'Just in case drawer' which is in reality the whole garage now

Bloody hell....how big's your dog.

10" square is almost big enough to make me some rubber soles.

You can return it under DSR (distance selling rules) & supplier has to pay return postage.

 

[Old Soldier]

Cut it into four equal squares, you can then sell it as a set...

6mm thick....in Ken and Barbies world that would be about a foot thick.......dont think it would bend to the pool shape.

Order some angle iron, make a frame to fit the boot then stretch the rubber over it.

It wouldnt leak, but the water would run off the edges.
