    Default Machining in Aberdeen

    Anyone know of machine shops etc in Aberdeen?

    My SR exhaust manifold has a broken stud which I cannot get removed, I put it too a well known machine shop here but, a week later they have not touched it.

    I'm having to use the xe as my daily but am getting a little tired of the supple ride, nice comfy soft seat and the silent engine

    yeah, the remains of the stud is below the line if you know what I mean, so can't be gotten at with self grips etc. I tried drilling it out and did damage a little bit at the side but hopefully with a tiny bit of weld and patience I can sort that out!

    I'll collect it from you on Sunday if that's ok? Then I'll hopefully get it done on Monday if I have a spare minute.
