cheers for the reply mate, sounds like something I'd definately f up if I tried it myself!
here's a couple of pics I can do more if needed, I've shown it next to a couple of other frames that have already been done, different designs but you get the idea

the vice screw hole needs tapping and the hole in the top of frame does too, the holes for the coil screws are just holes

bollocks...

brass is softer than most metals, and easy to work with.
