My chipie mate is too busy building kitchens and stuff to help me build more rig!Cry
Had some decent quotes by two reputable builders on here for getting some scoops made.....but they way down south.
 
Looking for  reputable builders in the South Westish Yorkshire area...so....Sheffield, Manchester Leeds areas. Can anyone recommend? Will only consider paying someone with a proven track record in producing solid, non rattley, quality builds so please....no suggesting your mate that "might be able to give it a go". - Im sure you know what I'm saying.   
 
Cash waiting.  Drivers waiting.  Amp waiting. Airspace waiting! 
 
Cheers.

the shame is that some people dont care
they will care when they go to sell them, sh*te quality in the beginning, will be very sh*te quality on a used sale

it's time to buy very good quality at sh*t builders prices 

the cabs that keep appearing with quotes like "awesome job" "excellent" etc, is miss leading

5 coats is 5 coats, look at the recent pic of shortmans scoops and you can clearly see that veneer in the ply........do you think this is good????

because if that's the fact, the price should be very cheap, all the hard work is in the finishing

so don't be a twat, and phone someone and say.....Joe Blogs can do it for 100 quid, when you haven't seen Joe Blogs II's 200 pound version
