When I was an apprentice (In the 60s) an old vertical boring machine broke a large bevel gear and it was fixed with metal stitching and away it went, and just recently on the lincs wold railway a cast block that carries the boiler on a loco was repaired using the metal stitching method (cant remember the company)but another excellent job.Metalock were the people that we always used,Excellent process when carried out properly.I still have one of the drill spacing jigs somewhere,
Well,haven't we heard this one before,during the phone call or shall i say after i spent 20 mins explaining the if's and why's,the reply i got back was,ok,dont worry but he's got someone else that can do it.............apparently this chap says no probs
it can be brazed at a price of £150................£100 less than i said,opps,gave the game away there.
OK,no worries,crack on,good luck
Thanks all for the inputs,saved me from a lot of grief
PS,dont worry guys,i do a lot of MOT welding repairs at this place so i'll know how the job
went,as the saying goes,WATCH THIS SPACE
