About Me

Hi guy`s and girls, I am a family guy now in my 50 s always fixed reconditioned mine and the kids items. restored a wide range of stuff, Hate to throw away quality made items, from carpentry old cast machines to cutthroat razors ,and brushes, love to buy unloved items and get them back into working condition, that`s my passion, love to learn what others know it fascinates me the knowledge you gain,

I have had jobs from rail track layer to metal fabricator,  sheet metal worker with copper, demolition to laborer ,washroom operator, to dishwasher, car valeting ,cable trench layer ,  helping at museum curator, to document old working items used in clay pits, kitchen assistant , many more jobs, just loved grafting,keeping busy,jack of all trades master of none,not to good on electrics though,

Got rid off all old cast iron carpentry big machines due to back injury in my late youth and moved onto mainly old vintage industrial sewing machines,later down the line , they seem just fascinate me, my couple of class 7 love the mechanical workings, but just now learning about them, and need to learn a hell lot more,a beginner really,

I basically love my family , like to dive into fixing anything I am comfortable with, and my back can cope with,  have load of hobbies , I am old school , with principles and values, respect others and respect there knowledge they have to offer, love to chat ill talk about anything , :smashcomp: favorite tool is a hammer as this can achieve many things , lol

And useless using forums sites and there jargon over the years as I find it hard how to use them correctly so I keep trying`  as these are the best places for knowledge, so if I struggle how to reply or send photo`s please be patient just put me right I won`t be offended .
