I already got a snorkle, but would like a shiny one :) and I live in Croydon.
But a zook would not be good to make up a jig for, as sales would be too small, and would not fit anything else.
I suggest you pick a higher selling vehicle to jig.

whats the ~price for a staino any how? And could you make one out of just 'normal', crappy lookin zaust pipe? and approx cheaperness? I obviously dont expect you personally to make one for me, but would like to know a general good price range so as not to get ripped at a zaust place.

Would be interested for 73 series cruiser, which conveniently is same shape as the 75 series. i have seen stainless snorkles around that have the standard black plastic ram off a Safari snorkle, reckon these look best

Would you be Tig welding or Mig welding them together? If you get the GQ ones worked out I wouldn't mind buying the sections or the tacked together snorkle and Tig welding it together myself for my GQ. I think I could probably handle Tig welding some mandrel bends together ;)
Regards Andrew.
