You can get the pipes from ATP, then I know A-1 welding in San Jose does a really nice job welding them.

Where in NorCal? Big place.

You need a shop with a TIG welder. I assume you are making your own FMIC setup?

They moved to Dublin right near the 580/680 interchange. The owner is pretty cool guy... a little pricy but really good work.

If you have the pipe and it is already cut an fitted. I know a guy who can weld it, Dan @ (925) 980-6923 in Livermore his shop is so clean you could eat off the floor. He welded my aluminum piping. real resanable if all he has to do is weld(no fabing cutting grinding) otherwise it wil cost more.


P.S. If you havent bought the pipe yet, do yourself a favor and dont buy that cheap crap off ebay. Well worth the few extra bucks for the nice stuff
