Not long before we went to Aus I dropped the Gassa off a bank and managed to damage the exhaust mountings.

These being a super light weight machine (69kgs) means there's less than fark all holding anything to anything. Once one bracket breaks the rest start to go with it.

I have exhausted my list of contacts. Turns out I don't know anyone that can weld alloy.

Anyone have any contacts in Hamilton??

any ave engineering shop with a tig should be able to handle that

I used supreme sheetmetals in frankton to do some alloy welding on a cracked gearbox. Job was good. They didn't do beer payment type work though unfortunately, just cash. Guy I dealt with was Mark. Got recommended there when I lost my alloy welder contact

bring it over and ill do it bro... ohh wait...

Might be a good excuse for a drive down and a visit one if these weekends

i dont have an HF tig here man

im slowly working on getting one for the site tho...

I have AC/DC pulse tig, but I is in Welly so not much help, do have a contact in Rotorua if you get stuck, Keith is a craftsman welder and is doing a alloy boat at the moment.
Cheers

Any boat builders in Hamilton?
Skelton craft in Taupo do a good job.

I've used sinco customs before for alloy welding on my fuel rails where I didn't want leaks..he is bloody good but usally busy as....

have seen some of sinco's work and well impressed. nice stuff by them.

as soon as i get my shit sorted ill be getting them to make some decent headers for the fawdy, cos the ones i modded to fit in there are shitsenhouser...

Mate of mine Sam at Metaltech Engineering in TeRapa is a master on the tig, aircraft ticketed etc. Give him a yell or pm me and can give you his number
