I worked exclusively repairing and servicing Elektron machines for eight years until our company gave the business to the competition which indirectly lead to me being made redundant and having to set up on my own The new MI-100 is a good machine - I just sold a 2nd hand one for £5000 - but there are others out there. I've recently started trying to get my customers interested in the Tecna Rhino, which is 14000 amps and highly rated by Thatcham.
Nice to see there are some bodyshops in the Borders. I live just over the border and have tried the towns along the A7 and A68 but not found much trade. I registered on the Auto-body forum recently but it's very quiet. My mate RPM posts occasionally but he's a lot less talkative on the forum than he is on the phone!
