Hi Guys, wonder if anyone can help me in finding a supplier of a 60 mm x 75 mm screw top plastic pot to keep my radio equipment dry in a yacht I'm building, I checked the normal places to no avail ... Thanks in anticipation, Alan

Many thanks for the replies chaps .... in answer ... Martin, Yes, I am with spouse for the past 40 plus years, therefore her thoughts of using cold cream to make herself beautiful have long, long gone. The local supermarket .... brilliant idea, I'll ask her to check it out when she is doing the weekly shop as when I go to the supermarket it is only down the booze aisle. Finally, the sail supplier and yacht fitter, thanks so much, that's a new retailer for me and will give them a shout. Thanks once again for all the help, Alan
