Hi all, does anyone know of a grp company that will fabricate moulds from drawings and/or finish a once started mould to completion.

My location is west wales but travelling is non relevant as long as the job gets done.

Thanks

If you go to www.totalkitcar.com and find the goods and suppliers lists, you should find a few suitable firms as a starter for 10.

I've never been good enough to design anything worth manufacturing, so can't really help with recomending one over the other.

My uncle is a patern maker and does what you need. In Glasgow though.
Any use?

I would suggest a company called Rojac.
http://www.rojac.com/ They are based in the West Midlands, but are one of the ebst in the country. They make a lot of our tooling, but this will not be cheap. I assume you have a CAD model of the part? Do you have a part to copy or is it still just a drawing? what do you mean you have started the mould - and need it completing? Tim

You could try Triton, who posts on here.

I think Andy Bates is offering this service now. Saw an ad on eBay (with a kart body) saying so.
