Double Bass Removable neck conversion europe?

I had my Hill done by Patrick Charton in Lyon.
Slightly different approach that eliminated need for adjusters and does not touch anything but the actual neck.
Those two are the only ones doing this that i would trust in the EU. I drove down from Stockholm to have it done.
 
Finland to Lyon is quite a drive though. There must be many German luthiers who could do this, although I can't say I know of any who have tried it. There is a guy named Invalid Link Removed in Hamburg who you might contact. He is open to new things like three wheeled extensions, so I'm sure he would this job properly if he agreed to take it on. He also speaks perfect English.
 
Why have this done by someone who is new at it?
Seeing how it comes out before doing it to ones own bass is pretty important. Drive or fly down and get it done right.
