Pipe Werx cans- anyone know anything about them?
« on: January 15, 2010, 18:11:50 »
Just found these on e bay- seem very reasonably priced, British made in various finishes. Just wondered if anyone knows anything about them / are they any good?

I've never heard of them, but they do look very well made. Not sure if I like the 'X' cut into the top of the outlet ?

I've seen videos of those sort of group discounts, I don't think it's always Stella that stars in them  :shock:
