Well first off thanks for admitting me , my main interest is Speedway I also like classic Japanese motorcycles both riding and watching them race , and of course Model engineering and general workshop tinkering . I have dabbled with all sorts , from making my own gunpowder and fireworks , to nickel plating .on the model Eng. side I have built a jan ridders coffee cup stirling , a 13 amp plug steam engine . , currently looking into how to cut threads on a lathe . if only there were 48 hours in a day ,I might get some of the list of projects I have on the shelf completed , alongside trying to earn a crust from vehicle graphics , printed clothing and mugs
