Can anyone recommend a good alloy tig welder? (Canterbury)

Found a good buy? Had some good service? Found a dodgy product or had dodgy work done. Let us all know. We all want to know about the good buys and warn us before throwing our money away on useless crap!

Austons alloy welding has done work for me. Cheapest when I was looking and bloodly tidy. Id never think twice going back to him. He done my stuff for 75 instead of others charging at least 170.. He on gasson st next to chase exhausts and opersite bumper shop.

I highly recommend P.A.D. Racing, 37a Hands Rd off Birmingham drive.
Garry is an ex Air NZ aircraft engineer who has welded all sorts of tricky stuff for me over the last 15 years. his welding experience ranges from British touring car nissan cyl. head fabrication through to Trials buggy chassis, to Formula 5000 monocoques.

He is also one of the best dyno tuners in town as well. Champion success in all forms of competitive NZ motorsport.
