Title: wanted - a welder Post by: bymatt666 (byron) on January 14, 2010, 10:10:12 PM does anyone know of a welder/welding company that could lengthen the shaft on my stainless steel spade?......it's too short and i'd like it to be around the same length as a mini spade (27")......here's hoping.....byron
