Many people have now mentioned price increases of 30%, 50%, 70%, even 100%. However, NOTHING has gone up 333%!! Basically, I've been ripped off with the brass tube and that's all there is to it. I won't trust that firm ever again and I reiterate my original warning. Get a quote and make sure they stick to it. Regards, Steve Oh yes it has (well VERY nearly) Steve!! Our gas and electric cost has gone up by 310%, though I have just found another Scottish Power tariff that is 25% cheaper, and the cost is locked in for the next 24 months. Bob.

Snip.... I think there is another evil awaiting us - when it becomes fashionable, acceptable and expected to raise prices - and that's when it can really take off. What can you do? Not a lot - if you want the stuff, apart from buy it now not later. I think we are starting to see this.

On the other hand it's an ill wind they say ,I havent done any casting since covid as I have been busy with other things but my stocks of brass and gunmetal are worth more now and my cylinders of propane are now worth 3 times what I paid for them. And jem can't you use CO2 ? Dan.

Yes Abby I can use co2, but cylinder hindering etc would still be mighty expensive. at 81 years old, this will probably be the last bottle that I will ever use, they do last me a long time, so hay ho there we go!
but thanks for the advice
best wishes
