Meccano chain

Hi all,

I'm looking for anyone who has used the small meccano ladder chain and sprocket. The question I have is that any newer chain I order for it from the meccano dealers seems like it doesn't fit right. It slips over the teeth, bunches up and mis-matches the teeth. On the other hand I have some old meccano chain that fits a lot better. Just wondering if anyone has experienced this problem and if so was there a good supplier of the ladder chain.

Do a web search for Mike Rhoades Meccano for his address/tele/FAX/pricelist

I used to run the factory that made this chain for Meccano and can tell you that the machine is now either scrapped or in China! it is over 100 years old, however I think that I may have a lenght of this chain at the back of a drawer somewhere, PM me if you are still stuck Peter

Assuming that his number hasn't changed:-

011 44 1482 650463

Note that the area code normally has a leading zero, but this isn't used when calling from abroad :-)
