Yep, big Buddha tick for F1 - they do VERY nice work, and while the price is definitely dearer than buzzing it in yourself with your SuperCheap MIG, it is done RIGHT first time - no excuses

He is the ONLY NZ engineer I send my work to
Communication is good , work is good and from where I stand the prices are reasonable

On saying that its not difficult , but u might need a small jig OR re align it once it cools ( keep the heat low )

thanks guys, sounds like their the shizzle.

probably wouldn't hurt to get them to check my frame over anyway after jettisoning it into the HD wall.
