Accidental Visitor.

I did not know this forum existed until referred by a person from another forum I had discovered.

Now that I know it exists, I am keen to take an interest and offer up advice should I have the knowledge to do so.

Since retiring, I have now found more time to do garage stuff at my own pace and whatever I like.

I am into hot rods and old cars and enjoy making gizmo's I guess would best describe me.

I have made several YouTube videos titled Cadflat Movies and am also known as a bit of a nutty professor at times so my friends tell me.

I join this forum after being referred to it by another member who found me trying to resolve a VFD issue which is attached to a bead roller I had fabricated from scrap mostly.

I live in the belief it is always easy to take, but I also like to think that I can give something back if possible.

The more that you learn, the more your realise that you don't know...

Russ, the build looks great! Nice work! Only thing is, you messed up and put the steering box on the wrong side!

 

[fiftyv8]

Yeah, the authorities over here don't have a sense of humour although I do own a early F100 still with the steering on the correct side.
That is my work horse that does all my heavy hauling...

Yes, Perth, sorry for slow reply, been consumed with my Bead Roller VFD thread trying to solve operational problems.
All sorted now , what a relief.

I'll check out your group later and thanks for the invite.

Thanks JD_1138, I do my best, but really feel at times I should be spending more time in my workshop and less time in front of a screen.

So many neat things to admire out there...

Welcome aboard.

Thankyou and I look forward to lurking around and finding my feet on this site.
I'm a bit of a sucker for getting side tracked from my main project and building gizmo's.

Thanks SuperCat, I've been thru your neck of the woods a few times now.
Nice country, but can get a little hot.
I wished I had spent more time checking out your rivers, dams and the old town.
I saw a documentary on the history of flooding around that district and some incredible engineering work was done to correct it.
Like to look you up if I ever get back over, as Paso Robles hot rod event is one that I would like to attend and it is only a stones throw from you...
