Hey Guys i leave S/E melbourne. And i want to get a Quote on getting a nice and simple Tube tray made for the back of my Hilux that i built up...
The Tray dosent have to be BLING". Just a simple Tray And Hoop over the back window and gards and somewhere to bolt me number plate and tail lights on..
They dont need to supply lights or anything i will do all that my self...
Note i dont want to have to pay a shitload of money i would make it my self but i am useless at metal fabbing

so you don't want to pay someone for their expertise because you could make it yourself, except you don't have the actual skills to make it yourself?

...pay an apprentice to do the job for you
they will charge 20 an hour instead of 80 and charge realisticly with the materials

PM KYSI on here. He's out of work 2nd year boilermaker. If he's got access to bender, welder, etc. i'm sure he'd be happy for the work.

it all comes down to
good works not cheap and cheap works not good
work out what you want
cheap shits worth nothing in the end
good stuffs all ways worth something
