Machine Shop

[Tight Git]

Hey,
I was wondering if anyone could recommend me a machine shop in Kent or East Sussex, that is mini friendly? I need to have quite a bit of work done to the block by someone who knows what they are up to.

Swiftune is absolutely full to the Brim with work until october at the earliest. I dont really want to be fiddling around with sending things away, unless someone can recommend a cheap courier aswell.

Regards Alastiar
