Anyone know English wheel metal fab in Bay Area CA

It appears I'll need some wheel work on some panel replacement pieces. Anybody know someone in Bay Area San Francisco?

I have another thread going http://www.airforums.com/forums/f381...nt-146041.html

Thanks in advance
Chip

N. San Juan. The Tin Man. Up near Sacramento. Maybe out toward Yuba City. Maybe a little further out.
TM Technologies.

My back yard. Up hwy 49 to Grass Valley. N. San Juan is another 20 miles. It's the boonies for sure. Lots of hippie hillbillies there.

North San Juan is a very colorful place. Hippies, growers artists and rednecks.
