Titanium builders in the Bay Area
Are there any local builders in the SF Bay Area who work with Ti? I know there is a good number of builders who work with steel, but what about Ti?
Reason for asking (for those curious) is I'd like to get some chainstay work done (potato chip) on a 3/2.5 frame and I'd like to not have to ship it anywhere. TIA.
