Re: Walker net arm dimensions
Would it be cheeky of me to ask for a copy of the CAD/Engineering drawings as I know a machinist/toolmaker who maybe happy to have a go at the metalwork for me.

Re: Walker net arm dimensions
Thanks Leigh,
I am a carpenter, no formal engineering training, although I was taught the basics with the Royal Engineers many years ago, mostly 'make do and mend' with hacksaw and file.
