Anyone in Ft. Collins have a welder?

[NK2007]

Like the title says, I'm looking for someone in ft. collins with a mig or tig to lay a bead on my hub.

I'm trying to get my car back together for the meet tomorrow.

Basically what i need done: One of the threaded holes the lug bolts go into is stripped out, thanks to vibrations due to a brand new (and faulty) wheel bearing. I need someone to lay a bead around the inside of the hole, and then drill it out and tap it (i have the tap.) Normally this wouldn't be a problem for me, but i have 0 power tools up here. (I even had to borrow a jack and jackstands)

If you are willing to help me out, i have some homebrew (tastes pretty similar to fat tire) to offer.

Thanks,
Neill

If it's not that urgent I have one you can use but I need to get it back from my parent's house.

Well thanks anyway guys, I finally convinced my roomate (who has a $3500 tig) to weld it for me. He wanted me to helicoil it, saying this wouldn't work.

Anyway, he welded it up, and i drilled and tapped it... Looks great! So now i have to figure out how i'm going to press the bearing in. I took it over to pfi at like 1:30 am this morning (they are right across from the warehouse my room mate has all his tools in) but they were too busy dyno tuning a 584 hp crx... gah.

We shall see if i make the meet!
