Lathes and TIGs in Essex
Hi,
Does anyone know of a good machine shop for turning ally bushes and similar, and also someone or somewhere that can do TIG welding in
Basildon/Essex??
I'm going to be needing an aluminium manifold welding soon and also some bushes to align the diff in my chassis.
Any help much appreciated!

Flak Monkey on here does turning for people- although I'm loathe to take his time away when he's meant to be finishing his Duratec
install!!! 
HTH,
James

J A Dawes Engineering on Manor Trading at Benfleet are excellent people to deal with for all small machining jobs - ask for Alan or John & tell
them I sent you!
While you're there drop in & say hello, I'm a mile up the road - you also ought to join the Essex Kitcar Club - new members always
welcome!
You have an excellent general workshop/MoT centre available to you if you're near Bas - Amethyst Automotive at Laindon
I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator
headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names
furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours.

Cool thanks for the replies, Russ I live in Laindon so will have to bear them in mind! Will take a look at the Essex Kit Car club, be a long time
until the car is nearing driving stage though!
ashg thanks for the offer will definitely give you a shout when I know the width I need - think it will be 4 spacers about 16mm thick 10mm hole in the
middle but not sure yet, will know this weekend.
I've seen Flak Monkey's website, wish he was closer! although ally spacers won't be too heavy on postage.

There is a guy on the Burnt Mills estate who is absolute magic at all kinds of welding. Hope he will be doing a manifold for me in the next week or
so. I know where he is but do not have address details. I will advise after I visit.

i can get ali welding done, but you would need to post your item
just because you are a character, doesnt mean you have character....
for all your bespoke parts, ali welding, waterjet, laser, folding, turning, milling, composite work, spraying, anodising and cad drawing....
u2u me for details
