Pavilion bay
Pavilion demo and collection bay for selected tooling orders. Book by email before you travel.

How Pavilion orders move through the week
The Pavilion showroom page refers to a west wing demo bay for CNC Rainbow. It serves as the location note for customers visiting the Pavilion branch.
Pavilion bay works best when the visit starts with the actual cutter requirement, not a vague shopping list. Durban humidity, traffic around the Pavilion precinct, and collection timing for selected tooling orders all shape what you bring through to the demo bay. A photo of the spindle, collet size, and material stack-up gives the branch a usable starting point before you travel.
Bring your machine setup notes for the west wing demo bay visit. That image helps match the holder, coating, and cut style to what is on your router or spindle now. If the order is for collection, keep the reference with your paperwork so the right tooling is checked against the booking.
Pavilion collection bay handover
Most visitors leave Pavilion bay with the exact tooling reference, coating detail, and the branch note linked to their booking. For demo visits, the useful outcome is usually a tighter cut plan and a clearer view of which bit suits MDF, aluminium, or board work on the machine in question. It supports a visit to Durban, not a replacement for the machine-side checks.
Use Pavilion bay as the branch point for west wing demos and selected order collections, then tie it back to the machine and material you are running. Before collection day, confirm the cutter code, shank size, and coating against your job card and one current setup photo. When you book through the contact form, choose Pavilion as the branch and say which CNC machine you want to see.

Durban conditions at Pavilion bay
This Durban branch note matters because coastal air changes how cutters should be stored once collected. Travel to Pavilion also needs a bit of planning when you are carrying job sheets, sample material, or an urgent replacement bit request. The bay is set up for visits linked to tooling and CNC work, not for a general retail browse.
Near the coast, corrosion checks on collets, holders, and packed tooling are worth doing before the next machine run. Moisture in the air can also affect board stock and dust behaviour, especially when the sample material has been stored in a vehicle before the visit. A Pavilion demo is most useful when the material type, spindle range, and intended finish are stated upfront.

What to bring to Pavilion
Durban
Arrive with the cutter name, machine type, and one note on the material you are cutting most often. If the visit is tied to collection, keep the order reference with your email booking and check that the branch is listed as Pavilion bay. For demo discussions, a sample offcut or previous test piece gives the clearest base for talking through chip load, edge finish, and coating choice.
