As the title states and if so what sort of price did you pay?


Complete fabrication, I didn't make it up!

What sort of brackets are you after?

As with everything, prices reduce with quantity... i was qouted £87 for a pair of dogbones to be cut and powdercoated black, or £30 for stainless. In the end just did them on the Bridgeport at work for the price of the material.

First of all a big thanks to snapper and his better half. Very impressed with the price, the service and the parts. £33.00 delivered for 3 one off brackets was a very pleasant surprise (Ok 2 are the same but still far less than I was expecting)

If your considering hacking away at a piece of steel in your shed, forget it, not worth the hassle.

Not sure if I can post adverts on here so if your looking for their services I'd be googling LaserFast Swaffham and see what they can do for you

Couple of crummy pictures here but you get the idea
