That’s a version of what I said.

I agree with all of these things. We should start with a database and repeat custom and group power may lead to good relationships later

I’m starting one now with my existing resources as a stariting point.

#24

Just a starting point, but we can try and add more, and also incorporate others:

#how-to is a probably better home for this - replies are disabled in the documentation categories.

Just a note please can people be careful when editing that they haven’t erased someone else’s edits…

@dermot you’ve done this twice now

#27

What did I erase?

Unless we were both editing at the same time?

#28

Before you edit you should take note of the orange number, if it increases while you were editing then you’ve got to merge their edits into yours.

#29

Okay. Never knew that!

Doing it on a tiny mobile.

#30

I was saying for everyone, not just you.

#31

Where’s ‘merge’ ?

#32

Copy the other persons edits into yours

#33

There’s no merge - it’s strictly one at a time. Copy and paste is as advanced as it gets I’m afraid.

#34

Okay. Thanks. Best done on desktop from the sounds of it.

Hi,

I have a detailed list (10 pages) of suppliers, most based in London but uk and worldwide too where relevant. I can’t see how to attach it?

#36

Clicking on ‘Edit this wiki post’ does nothing for me. Is there a permissions snafu?

Was going to add the can’t-believe-it’s-called-this Toby Electronics, Hobarts, MDP Supplies aaaand… who else have I used?

#37

Yes, this is the one I have! It’s really good, have used many companies/suppliers from it and will add a couple more. I have accounts with all the jewellery suppliers for discount/offers if anybody needs.

#38

Okay, I’ve finished updating.
