    Default New member: a short intro

    Hello all.

    I am a new member to this forum.

    I have been involved with machining/welding for the past 15 years as my profession. I do own my own home worshop/machine shop at home with all relevant machinery to the trades. I am also a boiler operator (part time) when vintage time arrives.

    My hobbies also include automotive engineering (mostly hotrodding) which I have built many parts which are too many to mention. I have built my own rod but have sadly parted as my work commitments have taken up any spare time I had. I have not posted any pics but if anybody is interested, I can post them up.

    Here is a link to some of the things I have made. I make most of my panel beating tools.

    Until I work out how to post pics on this forum I can't post any of my workshop etc. Any help guys with that please? Can I upload them here as an attachment?

    That is a 28.

    I have got more pics but I have not loaded any more on photobucket as yet.

    Thanks for the comments about my shop. It works well for me. At the moment there is a lot more "clutter" of unused household furniture over the pit side of my shop.
