i used to do the same thing. alot of our work came from tippers that fell over. 80% of our work was aluminium welding

I used to work for brambles at port

i have a few mates that drove for brambles. i work for a company called Metserv now Multiserv. i did my trade with a guy called Kingsley in Fairy Meadow.

Cut n Shut! All good!

I'm always impressed at how these things can be repaired. Makes me want to go and get a real job....

cool job, would be fun refurbishing trailers, seeing the finished product

this is the new grill for my western star, me and my mechanic made it, (he did most of it )

Whats she made of 'MVT'?

they are stainless bars my mech, had them cut to size, then folded, at mounted to the original grill bracket, and instead of the flywire behind the bars, we went stainless mesh, same as they use on the new security doors,

very nice grill will look great when fitted

yep it is very rewarding work fixing what some say can't be

the grill is fitted
