Swarf Trap

[Jack Foreman 1Participant @jackforeman1]

I need a gauze swarf trap for my Bantam. Apparently it is a domed piece of gauze which fits in the outlet of the tray to prevent swarf being washed into the suds sump.

Has anyone any idea where I might source one of these from please.I've looked on the Colchester website, without success.
I suppose that I can make one, if all else fails – but if they are available ……

Check out the Kitchen appliance section of Tesco, TMax, Dunelm , the Tesco one "link" I have used in the past when I needed stainless mesh.

I bought a tea strainer, of the correct diameter, last night.

But having seen Ian's photos this morning, I will certainly make a replica for the Bantam, in due course.
