New skills...

Postby abiegel » 23 Sep 2005 15:41

Joined the group to pick up a new skill. I hope initiation isn't too rough:) maybe just pick a couple of filing cabinets with paper clips?(I can do that) I'm always interested in learning applicable skills.

From what I've seen so far I have a wealth of info to tap into.

I think his location mentions a clit-heroe...why he omitted the hyphen, is beyond me. :wink:

Actually, he's located in the UK, (Lancashire, to be specific) and to be a little more precise (for all you armchair Man United supporters) Clitheroe is within 50 miles from Manchester, just below the Yorkshire Dales. The area is also noted for Pendle Hill, the location of the Pendle Witches...

...if anyone was actually interested.

new guy

Postby 4Honda » 23 Sep 2005 22:24

Hi

I'm a new guy from Canada.

I have a little experience a few years ago with home made tools and no real training.

I'm awaiting some real tools that are shipping right now, and look forward to the challenges.
