Had to get them online, only grinders and mixing drill I know of use that size?

Looking good Mr P :D

Going to drill some holes in my floor this week to fit mine. My floor is a bit strange though, I have chassis legs underneath, which are a bit close, so I'm going to have to juggle it around a bit :?
