Popular Post Shakotom Posted November 22, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted November 22, 2016 Hey Aim of this thread is to try and get us to get together as a community and hang out more often/meet each other and get our junk going! This thread can be used to organise help/working bees ect. Firstly I think it would be great for those of you who have a scooter or a bike that doesn't run or needs work to try get it going before our ride next year. (As I know there's a few of you out there) I understand it's a super busy/expensive time of year to do this. But where's the harm in trying? 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Threeonthetree Posted November 22, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted November 22, 2016 Great idea Mayte, I'm happy to volunteer my shed in Ardmore as a venue for working on things together. It has power, lighting, water and a bunch of tools etc. Also, I'll be needing a hand to make some modifications to the shed in the near future, consisting of: - Building a small wall in one corner (dynabolted bottom plates and a basic frame) - Chipping out part of the entry ramp into the shed (it's just hardfill and rocks) - Trimming the weeds with a line trimmer - Sealing some of the minor roof leaks - Replacing the old chicken wire with a solid barrier - Possibly removing a wall between my two sheds - Installing lights and powerpoints in one shed (just a hand to run the cables would be swell) Happy to provide beers/Sharns/music/a BBQ and get a few blokes 'round to chip in. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
igor Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 You on the aerodrome Neal? If you see a big blonde guy in a pale goldy coloured Toyota Soarer coupe that'll probably be my son. He's an instructor there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threeonthetree Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Nah not on it, just down the road. Although there are some awesome Aircraft hangars and garages full of cars on the Aerodrome itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bronze Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 I have an alternative west aucks shed with assorted tools and shit that GC's are semi-welcome to use - ONly prob is the bay with cars that intermittently run parked in it, depending on whether i've started something and not got the right part to finish it, or too broke to finish, or too many beers, you know the drill, but yeah, if I have notice can usually move a car and create a west auck option with a light duty welder, compressor and fluff like that. No hondas. Well, maybe. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
