    I purchased a Scrub King under-seat compressor mounting bracket and switch bracket to mount the ARB CKMTA12 compressor out of the way.
    First the incorrect mount was supplied; then after notifying them of the error they promised to send the correct one along with a return postage voucher. After almost 2 weeks without any delivery I contacted them again and received a notification email within a couple hours that my parcel was on its way (from Australia Post, nothing from Scrub King). It arrived in 2 days by express post. This one was black coated where the original was plain stainless as ordered - but that's not an issue. There was no return postage voucher.
    Again contacted them and received the voucher via email, and returned to original incorrect bracket.
    Communication was very poor.
    The switch did not quite fit the switch bracket but a bit of filing soon fixed that.
    The switch bracket as supplied is not suitable for the vehicle due to the air outlet hitting the pocket in the door so I had to modify the bracket and mount it differently, and as a result also had to relocate the compressor on the compressor mount.
    The tube adaptor for the compressor supplied was 1/8 BSP but the fitting on the compressor is 1/4 BSP and no reduction bush was supplied.
    In the end everything has worked out OK, but it should not have been this difficult. I have advised them of the issues so will wait and see what action (if any) they might take.
    Yea thats frustrating.. hopefully (but doubtful) they follow up..
    Cheers

    The boat flip saga continues. While struggling to get out, I slipped and fell in the reeds, my foot went down a hole as I fell. It got many cuts and hurt like hell the next day. After it got swollen and very sore, I had to have antibiotics which helped. But I have been limping ever since. It got real bad last week, and an X-ray and CAT scan have revealed small bits of bone in my ankle and some other small fractures and soft tissue damage. FFS!! Doc thinks surgery is on the cards, so I am off to see a specialist if and when they see fit. $$$$$$$$

    Go get a boat, they said. It'll be fun, they said...
    My advice is: not to follow my advice.

    You poor bastard. I will say I laughed like a big fat spider with your final one liner. Been a great night for me though, Plassy sent me some FIFO piss take cartoons and my ribs are bloody sore already. Seriously though, you are having a really bad trot Craig. Maybe consider cable tying yourself to the toilet and have all your meals home delivered by Deliver-roo?

    Well I engaged a PM on site to take care of a raft of project overload and he came out swinging and then collapsed like a house of cards when the going got too tough, pulled the pin after he got back home to Brisbane and left me in the shit big time. Was due for a break, after a month on site, but straight back there after a week, most of which I have been nursing the precious retards on site. All I can do is remember the contractors chant HOURS x RATE = HAPPINESS
