    Metal Fab

    Feel like an ass for not already having offered this but if any of you guys need welding or fab work done let me know. I have a workshop in wangara and my housemate has a workshop in forrestfield.
    We have ultra high pressure blasting equipment if u need anything stripped or cut into small pieces, an XY table on the way if u need things water cut. Im set up for stainless and mild steel, mig, stick and tig but setting up for ally soon. Ado has a comprehensive workshop specifically for boilermaking in forrestfield if its closer to you.
    Either way, we're both into the bike scene and happy to help if we can.
    Small job invoices can be paid in coldies, anything larger will obviously be at mates rates.

    Within reason..No Deathstars, fucking rebel cunts end up costing u a fortune..

    Good stuff Azrael, that will be handy.
    I've recently bought myself a smallish milling machine and once I learn how to use the thing, I'm also happy to help make any bits out of ally.
    Also, anyone who actually knows how to use a mill is welcome to come around and show me some shit. I have swinger extensions and triple clamps on my list and am currently buying various cutters and whatnots so I can do everything I need.

    It would be great if out of all the WA guys, we get enough people with enough gear to do any jobs we need to do either free or cheap.

    yeh stainless pipes are no probs, i have 2 high frequency tigs and a scratch start, waiting for the 3phase to set up in the workshop as its brand new an the wall are bare of power sockets or anything else for that matter. cept crap, lots and lots of crap..
    as you can see here, this small corner is the only are set up for welding an i had to run power from the toilets..




    Should have the 3 phase done in coming weeks and the xy table hopefully within four weeks, with that we can cut steel, plastic, some glass and ceramics, wood, granite etc so could also be usefull for triple clamps etc, then do your finishing on the mill? Dunno, just a thought..

    Yeah mate, i really have no idea how I'm gunna get them done yet, but having them cut out first then finishing off on the mill would save a lot of work.
    I was considering laser cutting them to start with but if your water jet can sort it, then it's all good.

    That'd make a good bomb shelter... or was that what it originally was?

    If only you were local to me - you'd never have to buy beer again.

    Im planning on building an english wheel but im not sure how well chequer plate would go through it hehe on the other hand you can do a lot with a blow torch, wooden mallet and a wet bucket of sand..

    yeah, a headlight surround.. but i'm wondering if we can work around the original lights on my bike.. cos i kinda like the idea of being able to see where i'm riding out near byford/kwinana.. bloody roo's everywhere.. and those nasty sharp corners..
