Title: Techy Services Post by: frozennorth on January 08, 2017, 04:24:14 PM While standing in our workshops overhauling the carburettors for my fairly ratty V8 Daimler the other day, it occurred to me that our company has a range of capabilities which could be useful to members.
We can provide a full range of engineering and woodworking (if it's that old!) services, our charges are reasonable, and advice is free! If we can help, give us a call on 01241 879403 or 07818 818262 (UK numbers), or email us at johnsengineering@btinternet.com.

Not cool, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt & re-post this in the Links for Commercial Services section.
Please don't use us for free advertising. Title: Re: Techy Services Post by: BikerGran on January 08, 2017, 09:40:29 PM Too soft Manky - he hasn't even said where they are, whether he's the boss, etc etc.
Title: Re: Techy Services Post by: spanners on January 08, 2017, 10:01:32 PM he,s been registered on here since 2011 ??? bit strange that its his first and only post in over 5 years

Title: Re: Techy Services Post by: Dslam on January 09, 2017, 07:01:07 AM I am on the Douglas motorcycle forum and strangely he was just overhauling the carburettors on his Douglas............
Draw your own conclusions. Just Sayin............................ Title: Re: Techy Services Post by: frozennorth on January 09, 2017, 11:49:35 AM Yep, I have indeed been on here forever, but really only used it as a source... until the bulb came on! And I am also on the Douglas forum and some others; largely because I own a ridiculous number of old cars, bikes, bicycles etc.
Like most folks I have more than one project on the go at any time, and the other day was a session on carburretors and brakes using our ultrasonic cleaner (very good); so perhaps your conclusions may not be entirely accurate ;D. It's my company, and we've been on the go since 1998. We cover design, machining, fabrication, polishing and coating, restoration and repair; and we work in ferrous and non-ferrous metals, plastics, composites and timber. We can also handle small - scale casting and moulding where necessary. Many, many years of experience, backed up by formal qualifications from trades (City & Guilds of London) to Masters degrees. And like I said, advice is free...

Title: Re: Techy Services Post by: stinkey on January 09, 2017, 02:36:04 PM Advice is nice, and at least we do not have to rely on pigeon post anymore ..doubtful most of us ever get up that way though ?
Title: Re: Techy Services Post by: BikerGran on January 09, 2017, 02:56:08 PM Manky rambles around scotland every so often - and I was up there once, the time I met Fifer when I was on my way to Shetland. Reckon that's about it!
Title: Re: Techy Services Post by: frozennorth on January 09, 2017, 04:16:34 PM Aye, it's a bit far up, but not really proper North - if you were talking about Inverness or Wick or somewhere like that then that's proper North... We still get a couple of hours of daylight at this time of year, these poor souls are in eternal gloom just now! - And come the summer the evenings go on and on, the roads round here are great, and there's hardly anyone on them... :)
Title: Re: Techy Services Post by: Stix on January 09, 2017, 05:49:30 PM Got family that live in Invergorden and was up there a couple of years ago really pretty scenery but even better was the distillery in Wick, old poultney Mmmmm smooth as it gets. ;D ;D ;D
