Habit Trail.

Kinda like Hobbit Trails, but for .. little furry things.

Wait, no, that's a Hamster Trail.

Anyways - are you meaning a habitrail? Or are you really out hiking and want to fix something?

..Sorry. I'll shut up.

Need someone with a TIG welder and preferably lots of experience so they don't ef it up.

I had the late and great Mike Chestnut fix broken welds and re-plate wireforms on my AFM and TOM. They came out great. Unfortunately, Mike has passed, but I wonder if the gentleman who is continuing Mike's plating work has this ability? I would think he would, as I'd figure you'd run into broken welds quite often working with pinball wireforms.

There's a guy named Ron with contact info in this thread that could possibly help you: https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/pinballplatingandmorecom-chromebrassnickelcolored-chromepowder

Find a custom motorcycle shop and buy them a six-pack. Or your local technical college.
