            getting hold of an arc welder to weld the jig and tack-weld the frame at home. gotta get the hands dirty.

            for the fabrication, the more you let others do for you, especially welding, lesser control you have over quality and budget.

            best to learn welding and do it yourself. being educated and 'understanding' welding and warpage in metal, you can do a better job than the average weld monkey you find by the road.
            Hey abhi,

            just putting the pics of my design, though quite raw n incomplete coz the details havent been added. try to make an animation of the system to check operations.
