It is easy to open the cheque-book and get someone else to do it but far more rewarding to do it yourself.I have found this with other projects.
I must admit I'm a novice at this but with practice and some determination hope to achieve my final goals.It probably isn't going to be for some time as I will need to get a few tools together, and following researching this forum make a few of my own
Anyway that's me!

Hi Andrew,
I'm glad the link I made caught your curiosity, I do try to pass on this site for those who feel the need to learn how this craft is properly taught.
I do admire the have a go restorers, but I wish they would research a bit more before they buy a welder & angle grinder
There are so many talented people on here. both present & past, so research through the archives, ask lots of questions & most importantly play with metal, it's more like elastic once you get into it
