Another New nutter
« on: March 05, 2009, 11:33:05 AM »
Hi you lot look like a nice bunch of people and after a good look round you are all in to all sorts.
well i'am no engineer i'am a carpenter/ ship builder by trade and make my money that way. now at weekends i play in my little workshop with a lathe an mill and so on as i got pissed with paying people to do little jobs for me so went an got the tools to do it myself over the years an now i can build most things in house. so far in the last 40 years 3 kit cars 10 or more full motor bike builds plus 10 or more rebuilds then 4 trikes and so on down to people now paying me to do jobs for them at the weekends. i like steam power but any thing with a engine get's me going.

Hi Boxtriker, I'm new here too. Welcome to the forum.  :wave:

Notice you're into trikes, I have a Harley ServiCar, pretty unusual in the UK. Do you have any pics to post of any you've worked on?

I wanna hear more about the kit cars.  Pics would be nice, too (some of these guys get bored without pictures).

Welcome #200 of 200!

Boxtriker... welcome to the collective   :borg:

Tell us more about the bikes/kit cars/trikes! I am into all 3 in a big way. I am currently designing a reverse trike right now.
