Because me good one has gone amiss? cost £9.95 but for the life of me cannot remember where I bought it as it was at least 4 years ago.
I came across this in B&Q and reminded myself why I never shop there.

looking for a laminate pull bar

Lidl had a kit of bar and wedges recently for only a couple of quid.
steel. The el cheapo one that came in the kit I bought ages ago has lasted for about half a dozen laminate jobs, but now needs hammering back into shape. That one does look a lot better made.
Screwfix kit is £8.99

similar - although the pull bar is either longer or not so broad.
To get that last plank down especially next to a plasterboard wall can be difficult as the pull bar is a bit feeble and you can not lever against the wall if plasterboard. I just put rubbed the tongue & groove with some abrasive paper to give a snug but not too tight fit, then assembled with plenty of glue. Done 3 rooms like that without failure. The first room still has a gouge on the floor face from when the bar jumped.
gathering dust.
You know that plate with two guide rods you get with most routers? just got to find a steel flat bar for the puller lever.
