:twisted: i can only take this as compliments to my handy work :twisted:

I was thinkin of puttin 1 on ebay to see if there was any demand then possibly making a few if it sold!
As far as i can see there is nothing near what i can make, as it is 1 piece of tube there are no joins to seal plus its metal so wont snap. thats enough of me yappin...
do you guy want the whole thing or just the pipework?? I've spoken to my boss and have the go to make as many as i like,so doing you guys one will get me started.

as for a price........... your welcome to pm me a price your willing to pay(whats the worst i can say).

the type i'll make will be stainless so will it'll last a while 8-) (unless it gets destroid :lol: :lol: )

Other from that I'll workout costs and work out how much to charge on ebay then get back to you guys( with a site regular discount of corse:hug: )

let me know your thoughts....i'd be gratefull! 8-)

to be honest if i was after a snorkle I'd snatch your hand off! It looks really smart! and loads better than some of the 'flexi pipe' ones some people make :shock: personally I would have wanted one with out a filter element and that way I could fit my own, plus it makes it easier for you to make them, I'm looking forward to seeing pictures of it fitted

Thats why i've been playin with the idea of a cone k&n type filter to fit and makin a shroud to suit..........its just finding the right filter for the job!
Although i'd spend more on materials......i save on labour................and gain on finish..........more thought is needed me thinks!



I've found a filter that should work! will order 1 and test it.......if its ok i'll cut the 1 off mine and use it.......then order more and get fabricating!

will ask my boss to do a cad scale drawing so i can have a accurate template to work from...and hey presto should be fitted by saturday( hopefully)! 8-) 8-) :twisted:

Well i couldn't resist any longer.........fitted the snorkle as it is and went for a quick run.......couldn't fault it and it sounds brilliant for a little 410.......going to fit the cone filter tomorrow and finish the new cone cover by the wknd and fit it permanently to my little beast! :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
