Grain Mill

[WLassell]

I've just received my barleycrusher and it is marvelous!

They did ship a single mill to me in the UK. You just have to contact the nice folks at www.barleycrusher.com directly and ask them to do it.

The VAT and Handling was about £24.

I'd been eagerly tracking its progress over the past 10 days via USPS on-line:

Electronic Shipping Info Received, May 07, 2009
Arrival
International Dispatch, May 10, 2009, 6:48 am, ISC MIAMI FL (USPS)
Arrived Abroad, May 13, 2009, 1:09 pm, GREAT BRITAIN
Into Foreign Customs, May 13, 2009, 1:12 pm, GREAT BRITAIN
Out of Foreign Customs, May 18, 2009, 6:36 pm, GREAT BRITAIN - great! Rubs hands in anticipation.... then
Attempted Delivery Abroad, May 19, 2009, 2:33 am, GREAT BRITAIN - WHAT - at that time of night??? You gotta be kidding!

Nothing turned up yesterday, but this morning's post brought a Parcel Force invoice for my urgent attention, saying they were holding my parcel at their Mitcham Depot. Its delivery or collection required a payment of £18.14 VAT, plus £8.00 Parcel Force clearing fee. Not a surprise - I had been expecting that.

Within the hour I was back home with my package. Now the slow reveal can begin:

The box...



The hand-crank...



The mighty Crankandstein 2D...



I'd already made the base and hopper ready to receive it from a piece of 3.5ft x 1ft x 1/2" plywood. All I had to do was to drill the four holes in the base for the mounting bolts, and two on the side panel for the thumbscrews.

And here it is all done...



Happy bunny

I ordered my barley crusher on 11/05/09. It was sent out on 12/05/09 and today I got a letter from Parcel Force with charges of £15.63 for VAT and £8 handling, total £23.63. That was paid online, so now I just have to wait for delivery. Hopefully by Tuesday I will be a happy bunny

What a sod. I'm going to the states at end of September but not sure I'll have the opportunity to buy one over there as doing a motorcycle tour but will have a look cos I was thinking of getting one too.
