Does anyone know where you can get this? HWMBO has made new washboards and bought SS ventilator grilles but the people who sold us them didn't know anything about the mesh. Previous boat had metal mesh - sensible ... Only about 4x3 inch piece required
 
I posted a very similar request a couple of weeks back. Here is a Link to the ensuing discussion.

Although I haven't contacted them yet, I will be investigating these people. Source Their smallest size though is 1 square metre which sounds a bit large for what you are after?

i think it funny the difference in cultures. Here in Oz it is called "fly screen" and every window and every outside door has a flyscreen such that the screen material can be bought in aluminium or fibreglass very cheaply from any hardware store. olewill

It's not the difference in cultures - it's just that Western Australia has more than its fair share of the world's flies! It's the only thing spoiling the place!

that and the Death Adder, the King Brown, the Taipan, the Funnel Web, the Red Back, the Salties, the Great Whites, the Box Jellyfish, Neighbours, Home & Away, the Nulabor, the Kakadoo etc...........oh, Fosters, XXXX and bloody Melbourne. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif
 
Thanks George you put that very succinctly.

Actually the Nulbour is WA 's greatest asset. It keeps away all those eastern staters. (especially refugees from Melbourne.

I have always been amused at the way people in other countries know in great detail of all the creatures in Oz that can kill you. I occasionally get red back spiders otherwise all those nasties are just as foreign to me. That is TV journalism for you.

At least in Oz you can fight and kill the nasties. Perhaps unlike the things that can kill you in UK like icy roads, freezing water if you fall in or blizards that can strand you in your car or on a hike leaving you to die. But I do love UK inn the summer. (never been in the winter)

come up and see me some time in West Oz. (not that other part)
Oh yes and you can perish in a sun burnt country for lack of water etc. olewill
 
actually Will, I spent a very pleasant couple of months in WA in 1994. Great golf, apart from the bloody birds nicking the balls off the fairways, good people, enjoyed Perth, very cosmopolitan. Freemantle, Mandurah, up to Kalbari then up Highway 1 to Karratha & Dampier & on to Pt. Hedland & Broome. That can be a desolate run seeing nothing for hours and dodging 'roos crossing the highway at night.
Didn't see any of the aforementioned nasties at all. Would love to go back to Aus again. I actually like deserts and would love to visit the Kagadoo one day.
