Default Wheel builders in Australia

Can anybody name/recommend a good wheel builder in NSW? I'm hoping to get a Power Tap hub and lace it to a Mavic CXP33 with 28 nice spokes to make a decent race wheel, but since my formative cycling years were spent in London, I'm clueless about good wheel builders in Australia.

I could try it myself, but I haven't built wheels since I was a teenager (a long time ago) and I'd rather an expert do it. Don't want a collapse at 60km/h!

Sorry but I can't help with a recommendation. If you don't get answers here, you could try these two Aussie forums with the same question:

Probably not quite what you are looking for, but this guy is a Sydney-based custom wheelbuilder, very competitive on price, I believe
