Just joined the forum and saying hello. I've got a few years to go until retirement but it's time to start making plans. I studied mechanical engineering as a youth but got side tracked..

If all goes to well I'd like to have a small workshop where I can potter my time away on learning the practical things never taught in text books and trying my hand at whatever.

Off to have a more in depth look around the site.

Good morning Roddy and welcome advice in almost any field available on here you only need to ask, where in the north are you ? Good idea to show this on your profile, just basic location County or town John

Hi Roddy; welcome to the mad house. Just how 'far north' are you? I'm just on the south side of 'the Boro'… North Yorkshire ( always was & always will be ) otherwise more colloquially known as 'Smoggieland'

Hello Roddy,

And I'm just outside Thirsk in North Yorkshire.

Not native though having worked my way up country over the years from a starting point in South London where we were pushed out rather rudely by Hitler's Blitz

North, north guys – Scotland. I live outside Edinburgh but hail from the Outer Hebrides. I've spent quite a lot of time pottering around with motorbikes and my engine builder is an 'old school' mechanic in Malton who's been a great influence.

I've got a decent bit of space ear marked for my new workshop and hope to build and equip a good sized space over the next few years.

Thanks again for the welcomes.
