Heyup! From Derbyshire........
« on: July 20, 2012, 05:39:52 PM »
Hello, All.
Thanks for letting me join in, too.......  :)

I'm a regular on MM. Very quiet, but watching regularly, on the (now) disaster area.

I don't often build engines. But, I love it when one of my orphans comes to life. Sometimes for the first time!

I spent most of my working life, making rock drilling equipment. Drilled many thousands of holes in thousands of rock bits etc.
Still drilling holes, in my retirement workshop. Sometimes, in the right place!

Yet another blummin Dave/ id........ So, I'm known as David Drillin.

I guess, that's enough for now. I think we're all set, for a great time together.  ;D

Hi Dave, (I'm seriously considering changing my name to Dave too, I feel left out  :P ) Good to see you here too.
