Reckon thats the only real good thing about living in the midlands and doing this sort of work, there are so many suppliers and resources around sometimes you can be spoilt for choice.

for example. All of the steel from monday are to make rock sliders and tree sliders for landrover 90 series, i need to get them powder coated i had a phone round within 2 miles of me there's a company who powder coat the front bumpers for landrover for the defender so i'm getting my stuff done in the correct colour using the same company/process as landrover

What we do if there's stuff we want from further a field.
I'm freindly with a local haulage firm i give him a call explain what i want and where from he'll let me know when he's got a lorry coming back past that way and he'll pick it up on a back load for beer tokens
