MemberTo all that put up with the language barrier last week we are now home
yes indeed a lot was learned on our little trip across the pond just got to learn how to put it in to practice but im very sure about a few things that i will be changing very soon!!
a very big thankyou to steve and susan, tom and jim and jon and lads and the rest of the guys including crazy kevin that gave us their valuable time and knowledge to help us to make enough money to buy a cnc (watch this space) some of the thing we saw were great
steve workshop was fantastic there is a man that loves his toys both in and out of work!!!(nice car by the way its a bit quicker than my little horse and cart)
tom mather and jim enjoyed all the ideas you have some funny but some i will for sure be stealing and using great set up and outstanding workmanship learned a lot and thanks for intoducing me to cnc(shit more money to spend)
jon thanks for the guided tour of the biggest showroom i have seen we what can we say about that place they
make everything including lego out of that stuff blown away with the guys willingness to work for eachother as well a their company i think barry took a lot from that so thanks but you will get no thanks for showing me that bloody cnc(shit even more money to spend)
the porsche is a distant memory and have erased all photos from the camera because once i had bought that thing i would not long in buying my lot in the local graveyard!!!
THANKS ONCE AGAIN LADS AND IF YER EVER COMING THIS WAY DONT STOP HERE!!!!

Member(for the record, Jim, as many of you know, is my clever partner, who gets me out of all kinds of stupid situations I find myself in.)Scott, it is a pleasure having you out. Give me your email, so I can send you out the only pic I have of you all.
Also, I can get you Viking’s mail address if you wish to send thanks. The guy has a big place, no?Finally, I’m glad you all got home safe. Now make some dang money. Pounds, dollars, or Euros, it doesn’t matter.

MemberI don’t know who enjoyed it more, you and Barry or Susan and myself, or even the shops that we visited. It was good luck that the shop owners were there too because they only knew that they were going to get a visit when we showed up. In the end is was fabricators helping fabricators. And just for the record, I was taking it easy on the turns with the Porsche. I usually drift the arse end out a lot more then I did with you or Barry in the car. That was something I learned from my track driving instructor, the car is always going a whole lot faster from the passengers seat.

MemberHello Scott. We’re glad your trip was a success. So what is the first step? Keep us informed as you move forward. What town where you from again?

KeymasterNo Problem Scott. The Fabricator Network did it’s job. It brought you guys together to share infomation. Too bad you couldn’t come to California.

MemberScott,

MemberScott if you want Eric. Its going to cost you. First at least 2 kegs of your finest Ale. A few rounds of golf. That’s your down payment.

MemberYeah, Jon.
I mean, St. Andrews?Of course, we have the next best thing. Public Park Golf Courses. Keeney Park in Hartford is like playin’ in The Bonny.
Rocks. Roots. Rye.
