Hi Dean, welcome.

You don't mention which part of SA you're from.

There are a few of us Safricans on this site. I'm in Randburg, Gauteng

Hi and welcome Dean!

Are you the guy who advertises classic panel fabrication on Junkmail? If so I tried to get in touch with you but no response........

Would love to hear more about what you do - and maybe send some work your way as I get enquiries weekly mostly from upcountry, and cannot really take on more work for the next year or so at least.
