I am a frame builder AMA

there's a place over here in Glasgow that has welders and space that you can hire but I think they are pretty basic stick or at the most mig machines.

What's it called out of interest? Maybe worth my time to head over depending on what I have access to at the Forge.

If you have the space to use it I'd really recommend getting some mapp torch and some stuff. You could be in action for under £100 I reckon.

Sadly not a chance of this happening until I move flat! Storage space is maxed out at the moment.
