Alu Fab & Finish Help - Seat Boxes

[tomictime]

I and another boat-nut I know need three stout alu seat boxes built + powdercoated or Zolatone finish. Ragnar (he is a super guy, wish he was not busy..) is really busy and Motion Marine is MIA after a week of phone calls and e-mails..now I do realize that it is the busy season for boats...

Can be WA or OR shops. South OR or CA if they can ship them.

Names of reliable fab shops appreciated :smile:)))

I don't know if I informed you or not, but I recommend you try Pro-Tech Inds. in Vancouver, WA (360) 573-6641. They will take good care of you on the welding end of things.
Good luck,
Ragnar

A while ago I talked to a custom aluminum trailer manufacture near Corvallis. They told me no job is too small. I could get a phone # and pm you with it next week.

I would second Pro-Tech in Vancouver. They make most of the aluminum truck boxes and bodies you see rolling around. I went there to buy some scrap sheet alum, they told me they are the second largest user of aluminum in the NW second only to Boeing!

Thanks for all your help. Tim from Motion Marine ended up helping me - they got super busy last week. When I get the welded box matched up w Bentleys seat I will post pics on boat..I think the visitors are going to be happy staring at rods this year :smile:))
