What size? Might have a few next week from work. Will have been sitting outside though so damp but will likely dry out ok

That would be brilliant, really any size, ideally the larger ones 1/2m high 1m wide type.

Def nothing that big. I was told they would be tidied next week and remaining cable removed. If it happens, i have first refusal so will let you know

Try TES in Cookstown. They usually bin them, if you phone they may have 1. I got 1 last year (through work though).

What size do you want and where are you?
Have you a trailer? I can give you a couple on Saturday night if you can come to Lisburn train station.

@Phil_D

Probably between 10 and 11 ish I think.
I'm not sure what sizes are there as we've been using them flat out this couple of weeks but it's just whatever size reel the cable comes on there's one or two of these..



Few bigger ones but they're very big



There may be another size there but I can't remember using it. Let me know anyway

There's a couple of markings sprayed on the smaller ones but a light sand would remove it no bother
