    My guess is that it's a one-off.

    Nigel Eaton could probably knock you one up in his lunch-break - if only his
    shed was a tad longer!

    Wheel... Since boil saw fit to appropriate your url for
    his own purposes over on urc. I see no real conflict in
    returning the favour:

    It's prolly as close as you'll get without the
    inestimable services of the good Mr Eaton.

    Using the patented Mavis Beacon "Hunt&Peck" Technique, Alex Ferrier
    Nah mate, that's welding, that is. You want a Pixie for that. Unless
    you've got a 2' x 8' x 4' aluminium billet, in which case I can carve it
    from the solid. Should be ready some time in 2087.

    On which note I was reading the other day of a Russian aircraft on which
    the wing skins *are* hacked out from the solid. They start off with a
    lump of ally that weighs 150 tons. When the part's finished it weighs
    1.5 tons. And there's 148.5 tons of swarf for some poor bastard to sweep
    up! =:^O

    That's very nice too.

    Thin end of a wedge though - first a pedal cruiser, then a Yamaha Virago or
    Harley Sportster - and before you know it you're shagging other blokes up
    the arse !!! :eek:)
