Probably going to regret offering this but i have been so impressed wit the response to my recent post that i thought i would 'give somthing back' so here it is
I have a metal fabrigation shop and we often get loads off offcuts of steel and stuff. I have made 5 bike stands for people recently from scrap. Not very pretty or neat but they do the job. So if anyone wants anything smallish made ie. bike stands, clamps, ground anchors, etc then if you can email me a drawing and i will try and knock it up for free.
Now the terms and conditions.
1) It would have to be collected from me in Stratford Upon Avon
2) If i say i cant do it then i cant!
3) If i say it will take a few weeks then it will
4) If it is very involved or intricate then i will probably have to decline
5) If there is anything we dont have scraps of i will tell you how much it will cost.
6) If you dont like it when its done Tough!
So send me over any drawings and i will tell you if its possible

20x20x2.0mm Box Section (Small amounts)
