“Next day delivery on my order, the wood is mostly clear of knots and as straight as anyone could reasonably expect. Really well packaged and protected, with dimensions well within tolerances for the job I'm doing although I did notice a distinct taper on the ends of the 2.4m lengths. Not enough to make them a problem,it actually helped in my situation but fairly obvious to me.”

“Fantastic quality dowels, really well packged and with seemingly immediate dispatch. Overall a very simple online purchase and superb quality service and items. Thank you so very much.”

“Over the years due to having to replace timber fence panels I decided to make my own storm proof ones from 63x38mm timber studding and jointing the timber using 12x75mm dowel joints, each panel is 1800x926mm and is held together by 68 pva glued joints (no screws used). I am about halfway through this project and Falcon work shop supplies who I normally buy this product from are out of stock and no one else has the required size. Fortunately I found G&S who make the 12mm dowel themselves which I have bought in 1 metre lengths (27 lengths gets you carriage paid) Which cost a tad over £51. It arrived in a couple of days and although I have not used it yet it looks good stuff. If you can always support UK manufacturing.”

“Package arrived on time, was well packed and secure. The courier used was excellent, driver even came to my back garden when I did not answer the front door (no throwing over the fence here). Cannot rate the products bought as they were for a present. Would use again.”

“I have bee a regular customer for a while now, my count of carving chisels is definitely increasing. From day one I have received nothing short of first class service, the care and attention that goes into packaging is second to none with health and safety foremost considering how sharp the blades are. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who has an interest in wood & woodworking or carving. Excellent. Thank you. Although my order was delayed this is not G&S fault it apparently got sent to the incorrect depot for onward delivery journey.”
