Hi Peter

For the mast base go to AHPC (5443 6910). They supply the base and a pin separately for you to drill and assemble. They have just about everything else you need for a Mozzie mast as well, except spreaders.

For the spreaders it's Goolwa Masts & Welding in SA - phone number 0414 552 038. I had less success there. Many weeks went by and they still hadn't looked at making the spreaders I ordered - too busy rigging masts for lead-mines. In the end I gave up and used the spreaders off my old mast.

It would be good to find a local engineering shop that can do aluminium welding but you have to go through the process of finding the aerofoil shaped arms from somewhere and explaining what it is you need. At Goolwa you can just ask for "Mosquito spreaders" and give them the rake measurement you want. Simple, if only they would just do it!
