    Geez guys, if I can do it anyone can. All the gear needed is available from Mining and Industrial plastics which is 2 minutes down the road from me so if anyone wants to give it a go and can't find a supplier let me know and I can get it and send it to you.

    Forsthoff electronic welder......... $669.80 + GST
    3mm speed welding tip............... $78.05 + GST
    Mylar test kit........................... $22.00 + GST
    welding rods...pack................... $47.50 + GST

    The mylar test kit is a pack of different types of plastic rods 300mm long and named to test on the plastic you want to weld to identify it. The rod that sticks is the type of plastic it is.

    GTS fascia plastic is ABS.

    As I said there are cheapy plastic welders on Ebay but I don't know how good they are so buy one at your own risk. I only buy quality tools and my welder was bought when I was welding vinyl flooring and wall sheeting together.
