Looking at getting myself set up to engineer some parts for my track bike such as levers and foot pegs and even fancy the challenge of building a model engine, heck even my own bike from scratch if i get any good!

will be browsing the forum for advice on what equipment will be best and posting lots of silly questions i imagine!
