janeears Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 On completion of our WIR, we bought an Argos radiator rail to support the grub and glug. This is great for the former but isn't strong enough for the glug. I'm currently having to re-attach and re-fill it at least twice a day which is a pain. If anyone could suggest an alternative method of supporting their water, I'd be very grateful. I don't really want to buy a new drink dispenser - have spent a fortune on the chooks over the last month!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 You could take a piece of your run and use omlet clips to attach it to the weldmesh then the glug hangs on that. I mounted a piece of run on battons screwed to an upright and hang things on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janeears Posted October 7, 2010 Author Share Posted October 7, 2010 Good idea, Plum. We've currently got our run on ebay - if it doesn't sell then we'll reappropriate bits!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 Kroken kitchen rails from Ikea seem to be popular . I use a piece of laminate flooring - the little groove is just right for a glug/grub hook . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MummyHen Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 I bought a pair of these from the shop https://www.omlet.co.uk/shop/shop.php?cat=Chicken+Keeping&sub=Spares&product_id=499&product_name=Run+Skirt+Square+-+Pair and they are just the correct width for a glug or grub Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 Kroken IKEA rails are excellent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janeears Posted October 10, 2010 Author Share Posted October 10, 2010 Popped to our local Ikea today and bought the Kroken rail. It's brilliant - really sturdy, supporting both the glug and grub. Thanks for the advice, you knowledgable lot!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
