In the original post was;"This is a MATERIAL KIT only and any BENDING, DRILLING or ADDITIONAL MACHINING to be carried out by the builder".Because there are so many variations in personal choice to coning angle, pitch etc, we are leaving those jobs to the builder, to suit his own requrements.Kit price will be $3250 + GSTGraeme
