    I have an 50 metre extension lead on drum made of plastic with metal pipe does anyone know where you can get a replacement drum?

    I'm finding them hard to source. It wasn't a cheap lead so its worth replacing the drum.

    Get an old timber cable drum. Will be a bit heavier but very solid. Maybe ask for this to be moved to the electrical forum, as one of the guys may be able to help you out.
