Right, posted this in the teal pages for future reference, but I'm so impressed with the service that I'm spamming it here as well.
This little company has been just fantastic to deal with and has made custom driveshafts for me, reconditioned the cv joints, machined the cv joints down to fit into my hubs, as well as collecting and returning the parts, and there's a 12 month warranty on the lot too. The cost of this is less than a set of bog standard generic driveshafts for a modern cheap blancmange-mobile.
IF THIS POST GETS DELETED I SHALL BE EXTREMELY UNIMPRESSED BUT ALSO MILDLY UNDERSTANDING AND APOLOGETIC but here's a copy and paste from the other post.
Not often I write a post about a company but this is one worth reading about and remembering.

If you need custom made driveshafts, these are the people to talk to. They will friction weld pairs different driveshafts to suit your needs with your measurements. I gave them two inner and two outer cv joints with parts of both sets of driveshafts and they have joined the two as if they were a factory driveshaft. They also lathed down some cv cups to fit my wheel bearings. They also reconditioned three of the cv joints and replaced one, and delivered them back to me having also collected them from me too. Total cost was £370, with a 12 month warranty, and a four day turnaround from start to finish. Flawless customer service, phones are answered straight away. Bob who runs the place is incredibly knowledgeable and is really pleasant to deal with. And of course, the driveshafts fit perfectly.
Like their page, and here's their website too. They are based in Willenhall near Birmingham.
Support small local businesses like this, they are the life blood of this country and they are dying out.
