Shaun i appreciate where you are coming from, i cant recall the exact figure for getting some made by the firm but it was well into four zero's...i cant afford to throw money away like that, especially when i would need the materials freighted up North too.
i have access to all the machines i need to make a set at a cost i can afford i only require acurate dimensions and reference to what size hole, which are counter sunk etc etc etc.
perhaps if the firm were to give a discount on a set at a reasonable cost i would reconsider my options but thousands for mild steel does not compute in my tiny Geordie mind......i am too close to scotland and by reputation they are froogle with their cash hehehehehe
