just been told that you can buy a bending machine in machine mart for 30 quid given that i spent 6 hours making mine and 15 quid on stuff to make it its worth a look you could always sell it on ebay once youre done with it or even on the for sale bit here
 
I'm maybe thinking of bungin' sumbuddy a couple o' quid tae bend mine;)

Best mastic for sticking anything down is Sikkaflex I have a friend who restores the roofs on listed buildings and he uses it to stick slates together.

What he does is stripout every 5th row of slates and nail them down then in the remaining rows he uses an angle grinder to cut a slot through the remaining slates and halfway into the bottom slate. then he fills the slot with sikka flex. and he's never had to go back and replace a slipped slate.

Sikaflex has only one 'k', if you're doing a search. I've used it as part of a damp-proofing system in a basement. I know BBM in Hounslow, Middx. stocks it. Not sure what the local Conservation Officer would think of your friend's use of non-traditional materials though:eek:

Approved by english heritage and whatever the welsh equivalent is. One of the roofs he's done using that method is the Corn Exchange in Leeds. as well as several church roofs. the Conservationists love it because you don't have to strip the whole roof. The amount he uses is very small. and isn't noticable from ground level.
