Hello to all , LabRat here.. joined up here to gain some more wisdom as i build my shed / home . A little about myself . Son of a NZ motor mechanic , I did my trade as a Fitter Machinist with Catapillar .But now I run my own Podiarty lab . Have been lucky to grow up with Boats ,cars and motorbikes , have built two game boats with my father and have done plenty of game fishing along the way.But my personal passions involve cars and bikes . Have ridden dirt since I was 5 and recently (3yrs ago ) stopped racing natural terrain motocross . Also some road bikes too , last couple a 95 triumph speed triple and now a 06 rocket 3 triumph . Have owned many various pre 1980 cars and trucks but now drive a 05 Custom commodore van . After enjoying my life to this point without children or even getting married I did'nt want to have a huge morgage , so am building a 2 storey workshop/house at the rear of my parents 5ac. to help them look after it and so they can live out the rest of their years here.....

, thankyou .....
