Tig Weld Aluminium/Alloy: Melbourne
Good morning everyone.
I broke the mounting on the 60 years old scooter engine over the weekend. I am wondering if anyone could help to weld the piece back or knows any service in Melbourne I could get it fixed? I am on the eastern but willing to travel with it.
Your help or direction would be greatly appreciated. I'll remove the parts prior.
Thanks,
Trong

You Broke it good mate
I hate to say it but Jesus that's smashed good
I can recommend Headwork's in Murrumbeena to do that repair BUT you are going to need to strip it to the bare cases to do it and either have Basil make a aliment dowel to suit it or you supply it
Good Luck Mate

Thanks Bruce,
Yes almost heart broken after that, I couldnt sleep that night. Luckily I just found the case from ebay USA, postage is the killer but at least It will be the same again.
