Thanks, missed that number somehow.
Seems there's a fair few recommendations, i never realised there was so many custom builders out there.
I also spoke to cotswold who seem pretty up together with things. tricky decision now!

I emailed Kev Clayton a few weeks back about a build, never got a reply back. Won't use him.

I e-mailed Mr Clayton about a build 3 weeks ago, he said he was very busy, and it would be June at least before he could do my rods. As I'm not in a hurry I asked to be put on the list and he will contact me when he can start the build. Didn't know he had covid. I've had it too. Hope he and his family are recovering well.
