if you could cope with tent cloches and not barn - i could probably get you some cheap fixings - would depend on size of glass though - pm me if you want more info.

click on the make your selection bit in the green [ select drop down box ]

that offers packs of 6  & 24  and the prices change in the web page.

6 for barn = 1.95
6 for tent = 1.90 ...... werid...
