8-) I can weld but im in stoke sorry if i was local then i defo would have done it for you brother im sure some one would do it close by tho?

could you not rent a welder and have a go the prep bit is the hardest to be honest , give it a go you might suprise yourself and save some money in the long run. I had a welder for my xmas when i was 18 and i taught myself and still have the same unit now and Im 32!!!! its not as hard as people tell you.


good luck

:roll: not sure but you can pick em up second hand cheaply ( my bro bought one from a mate for 25 quid ) if you do buy one itll always be there and when you get good you can fabricate all your own bits. Id ring a few hire shops locally for some prices and check out ebay and the like id recommend a clarke 100e or similar and dont even think about gasless there poo! just have a go I know that your like me and have a tight budget but it will pay for itself once bought and the dark art is learnt. May the force be with skywelder my son !!
