Just moved into a new house and the pop up waste mechanism in the tap has a problem. Basically, the sliding toggle connecting connecting the down rod to the vertical actuator rod is broken. Does anyone know where I can purchase a new one from? I dont want to end up buying new taps!

Our local tip sells off serviceable items - including washbasins with pop-up wastes. If yours does the same, you may be able to find some bits for a few bob.
Alternatively, if you've got an old Meccano set lying around you might find some bits which are suitable, or can be adapted.
Hi
Is this a figure of 8 type thing for a bathroom waste? With this sort of small item (and those inserts in tap handles that seem to strip their splines) I just call the manufacturer and ask for a couple of new ones. I've never been refused, and never had to pay.
