I need some parts made for my kart, kart is European. Do you know a machine shop that can do this job? (Metric tubing) Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Al - I think you haven't gotten any responses because finding a machine shop to make stuff for your kart is pretty unusual unless you're doing something completely wild like putting a non-kart engine or something on it (another rocket kart in the world?).
Metric or not, a any good machine shop should be able to make anything you ask them to. But if it is not some sort of custom part, if you're just looking to replace items I'm sure something off the shelf somewhere will work. A few different manufacturers make about 80 to 90% of the bolt on stuff on a kart.
What kind of kart is it and what are you looking for? Someone might be able to get you fixed up quickly.

In Calif. most shops get anywhere from 45-65 dollars an hour. And it will always take longer than you think.
