Dear Willi and others

there was and maybe still is an alternative at least in Germany (and perhaps
in other parts of the world) to BEST and Svagelock and Cajon, called
Fujikin:

Fujikin GMBH
Leopoldstrasse 9
40211 Duesseldorf
phone ++49 211 350458 /59
fax ++49 211 363990

I did not test them, because with the large amount of stuff I had to order
last time, Svagelock became chaeper. But I remember that they were cheaper
on some parts,  their UJR fittings were directly compatible to the VCR of
Svagelock, and concerning valves and fittings they had a similar program. I
am not sure if they have something compatible to the Ultra-Torr connectors,
but it is surely worth a try.
