If you go to your local airport there will probably be someone there, if not they will know someone.....planes are full of weird metals and most of the aircraft welders are top notch.....dont go to Quantas though....there having a few problems at the moment ;D

Most of those guys are pretty ordinary Stuey, plus it's only the real exspensive race type mags that are actually magnesium.
