Spring manufacturing happening but not as cheap as I hoped but still in budget.

Hi all can people contact me or leave a message as I have had to set a minimum of 20 springs but the minimum cost is 76 plus Vat or that's it for a decent quality spring steel replacement.

If not enough interest I am not going to go ahead !

Thanks

Sadly Arthur that's each made to the drawing with the correct steel and rockwell requirements. That is also the price trade as we do other business with the company.

Direct to public would cost more but we are reaching out yo other manufacturers even in Germany but K do feel I am wasting my time!

Yes Chris I counted on you and I need a spare but probably like Arthur I don't want to be sitting on 2k of spares that may never sell.

Luckily Arthur was kind enough to help Silk owners out but I am not in position to spend 2k !

We are trying another supplier as stated but they all seem to have minimum order charges due to set up costs etc.

Hi Paul,

I have met a specialist welder who works with classic cars and bikes and he is working on my classic MGB - friend of Alan Milliard no less, who thinks he may be able to help. Can you send me the drawings so it can be assessed?

Thanks,
Chris
