My Intro
« on: July 29, 2012, 01:22:36 AM »
Hi ya all, my name is Graham but I'm called Gabby by most who know me, (yup another HMEM escapee ha ha).
My workshop is in my back yard which is in the suburb of Henderson (Waitakerie city) of Auckland New Zealand 0610.
My wife (Roz) and I have lived in this area for 12 years or so now.
 I am a refrigeration engineer and my wife is a staff nurse at North Shore hospital (Waitamata district health).
So as time allows, I manage to spend some time in the shed, I like to build I.C. engines and although I have several projects on the go, I haven't managed to complete an engine yet, I am finding it hard to focus on one thing at a time HELP ha ha.
Hoping to make many new friends here
Graham

Hi to all, many thanx for the welcome and I hope to do justice to several lumps of steel and brass (and maybe a large lump of Ali as well) while all you fulla's and fulla-ettes look on.
I am keen to show what I have done so far, but it may be a while for the photo's, just waiting for the wheather to lighten up on the rain a bit (and the games to finish) then I will be in my shed again hopefully with a good dose of  :proj:.
Cheers
Gabby
