Your businesses and what you do!..

[mav]

As we have a lot of members who own there own businesses i have started this thread for those who would like to let others know what they can offer them or let them know what they do or sell.

You can add 2 photos of your products and list your services or what else you have to offer, Nuts and bolts, Mountain bikes, Banners and signs, 4x4 repairs, ect, ect.

(Send me your photos and i will add them to your post)

[Terranosaurus]

I'll kick this off, for now just a short note.

My business as many will know is PJ Parts, I sell Motor Trade Workshop Consumables (not components). So thats all you fasteners and fixings, sprays, tapes, cable ties, connectors etc

There's an oline catalogue HERE (http://www.loncourtws.co.uk/force/), which is really intended for dealrs like myself but you can va look, if theres anything anyone wants a price on please PM me. (theres prices in there which are ball park, but they're an old price list but I discount from list anyway, and + VAT of course I'm afraid).


Please note consumables are trade size packs so, I can't do just 2 or 5 of an item really, though I am willing to split some bags so you can always ask.


I also sell tools from J&S Tools who are the agents for Signet and Trident (and others) who are both well respected in the rade but aren't as well known to the public as say Snap-on and Mac as they sell via independent dealers such as myself who's vans aren't corporately sign written so you don't notice us.

I've got a website coming soon (still working on it - its a laborious job), but if anyone wants anything in the meantime I'm always willing to bring stuff along to a green lane day, if in Yorkshire I may be able to arrange to meet up or can post.

Online tool catalogue, any price enquiries PM me and I'll post em for all to see.

Hiya everybody, well I am an airport fire fighter and a first aid instructor, so if your on fire and need a plaster call me. :lol: apart from that I can't really offer much lol.

[wolf]

Well im in Ireland so cant offer most members anything, i dont think...but...

i own a security company and specialise in gate automation and CCTV and alarms.

web addie: www.masecurity.net

[mav]

Hello Wolf.

Do you not offer mail order? or do you just install CCTV?.

Mav.

[waterman]

Used to own a coach company (12 Coaches) but got wise and sold it !!!!now run sewage works for Scottish water but still hold PCV & LGV class 1 licences also National & International transport manager certificates for PCV & LGV and ran the workshop so can repair broken things like buses and lorries if needed.
Any good job offers or part time welcome !!!! :cry:

PS if anybody interested still got an Veeder root tacho analyser- needs software upgrades but still has basic package and connects to your computer and reads and analyses tacho charts and requires card reader for new chip cards (wasover 3.5k when new!!)

[baskie]

I own Real Cycles www.realcycles.com and Bike Spanner www.bikespanner.com plus a handful of websites.

Real Cycles is a specialist high end MTB shop. We're Commencal dealer of the year for 2006 and 2007 and Irelands exclusive dealer for the brand. We're also exclusive dealers for several other top end brands. Our bikes start at about £1k and go up to whatever you want to spend. Essentially if you can afford it, we can build it for you. We ship all over Europe.

Bike Spanner is a much smaller scale local based business so most likely of little interest to anyone here!

[wolf]

Hi Mav,

I dont do mail order....YET... still in process of building online store,

but if someone wanted something i can source it or wanted security recommendations,.. no problem.

Hi all,

Recently made redundant from a multi-national who were streamlining.
My main skills are in voice alarm systems, large scale systems, design, source, specification commissioning and testing to british standard. I also carry out acoustic analysis.

Right now, I'm back in the marine electronics industry working for myself fitting and commissioning ships systems to yachts and motor vessels. I've lots of contacts with trade suppliers for electronic and electrical systems/components, if you need audio equipment, info on fitting high current dc systems like winches etc, just shout........ I also carry a range of radar and sonar gear but guess no one fits them to their cars :) There are some cracking navigation systems tho.........
Email is ambientmarine@yahoo.co.uk

Remember a company from Poole called Cetrek by any chance?

[ocelot]

I know the cetrek gear yes, not bad kit if I remember rightly

[dsgrnmcm]

Well as some of you may know i'm in the mighty Royal Navy!

Trades that i have (but of no use out side) are mine warfare, Tactical communications and seamanship (fuelling at sea, lifesaving etc)

But the stuff that can be used in the "real" world:

• MCA certified deck hand, can manufacture ropes and wires (splicing)

• MCA & RYA level 2 boat driver, FRC Boat driver, MCA safety boat driver.

• MCA sea survival instructor.

• MCA sea survival equipment maintainer and supervisor.

• IMES / lESMS certified lifting and test equipment examiner.

• IMES Slinger (load management, crane directing etc)

• IOSH Risk assessor and COSSH assessor.

• VHF long and short licence.

• GMDSS global operator licence.

• Level 2 armour.

• NVQ 2 in ROV operation and maintenance.

So in summary if you want any thing sailing (power) or rigging, slinging, testing or fancy tow ropes knocking up giz a shout, cordage is free (fell off the back of a ship...)

I also mess around with XBOX 360, but darwin’s the man for that, and have done a few hours moonlighting doing :

Scaffolding.
Milkman.
Carpet fitting.
Rigging new yachts and ribs.

But more than welcome to give anyone a hand.

[ocelot]

Interesting.......... good old pusser, very generous with their stuff as I recall!!

Great for training too.

I used to be a submariner, started off in diesel subs, no washing for 3 months at a time, loved it (what does that say about me tho ) Got to be a PO, (RS), not that it did me much good tho.
Ended up in a multi forces bunch of renegades doing silly things with communication systems working all over the world doing realtime audio and video. Electronics is my main bag, I fit systems to all sorts of vessels, going back into audio systems as a contractor more and more now tho, analysing acoustics and providing solutions.

I'm also a yachtsman, have a Hartley 39 RORC offshore racer which I refitted from a shell. Now a long distance cruising vessel, coded. I also call it home. She's 15 tonnes, 39' long, and pure joy to sail, if a little wet occasionally :)

All the home comforts as well, generator, hot and cold water etc.....

If anyone wants to learn to sail, navigate etc, just shout! I can take you as far as yachtmaster.....
For the record, I've crossed the atlantic several times, both single handed and with crew, got around 18,000 nautical miles under my belt and really enjoy heavy weather.

I can also offer,
Audio equpment of any type, video/CCTV systems (IP rated), acoustic solutions, to vehicles as well as buildings, electronic navigational systems, chart plotters, memory map systems, GPS, inter vehicle comms systems, secure or not, TAC radio systems, personal comms gear..........
AC and DC monitoring, measurement, equipment, test gear, installation and commissioning.
DC control systems using PIC's,
I also service radar, sonar and radio comms systems...........
If anyone wants any specialist connectors, audio or RF, shout, I can find them trade or have them in stock.

Regards

Dave

Hi ya'all!
I own a small parts business mainly covering Rolls-Royce and Bentley cars. We are members of the trade clubs and sell parts for all models at discounted prices, including current models!
We also specialise in sourcing hard to find parts for any vehicle, especially classic and vintage. We hold quite a selection of parts for very early edwardian vehicles and have many contacts where we can obtain spares for the rarest of vehicles. We also occasionally sell the odd classic, most recent being a 1931 Rolls-Royce 20/25.
We also have a very large collection of automobilia and curios which my business partner has been a collector of for many many years. We stock everything from crystal cut glass to bonnet ornaments.
Our full catalogue is available to view here : www.RollsBentleyspares.com

I am happy to offer any member of this club 10% discount on any item purchased or sourced. Make sure you give me a nod first!

Needles to say, will also turn out for any club members in trouble or needing help.

Hi

Do you sell brake bleed nipples, finding these expensive to get a hold of.
I used to pick them up at my local motor factors for penny's, they now want pounds.
I like to do my own servicing for myself family and friends and like to keep a supply of 7,8 and 10mm nipples.

Thanks
Pat

[Scarred4life Motorsport]

I am a Zoologist...which is no use to anyone unless of course you're a rare species

I am also the Director of a Sahara rally motorsport team and company....i organise yearly races or expeditions though the Sahara desert, Arctic circle and Trans-African..... therefore a 4x4 nut with extreme tendancies to disappear from the wife and kids on an adventure with like minded adventure junkies. Check out my websites.....www.sahararally.net for 2011 and past sites www.sahararally.org and www.sahararally.co.uk

I have ALOT of people that enter these from all over Britain and Europe, now internationally, so many of the businesses threaded here could lead further a field.

I am also the Chairman of a fundraising society directly linked to the East African Wildlife Society, FFI, IUCN and ophanages in Morocco. The sponsorship i get from the rallies and charity dinners go to these charities.

Luckily the rally and its charitable exploits have brought influencial people on board to monopolise the radio, magazine and TV interest from people like Mike Dilger(One Show). Sir David Attenborough, Stephen Fry, Soumaya Akaboume(Bourne Supremacy) etc. The British High Commissioner to Kenya and the Moroccan Royal family are very active.

If any of the clubs members would like to join the 2011 event please contact me...its amazing fun with a great charitable cause and you will be on TV :thumb2

[Scarred4life Motorsport]

hi...i own a motorsport company and always require livery on rally vehicles, banners etc....check out www.sahararally.net to give you an idea.

I drive a 360 digger.
Used to be a plant safety manager but the stress got to me. Now taking it easy, sitting on my bum all day, pulling a couple of levers, digging holes in the middle of nowhere. Love it !!
So if you want a hole digging or a ditch clearing, I'm yer man.

I also dabble in motorcycle repairs, so if you need any help or advice just ask.

I work in the Planning department of the council - whoaaaah, sexy I know...:p If anyone is sad enough to have any planning related queries, just give me a shout.

Hi just finished a extention what is the diffrence between having it signed off and not, should it be sooner rather than later as i have just some flags to lay outside.

[jims-terrano]

Hi Laurie, that's Building Reg's that sign it off not planning. Mine hasn't been signed off yet because the Bthrooms aren't finished and won't be for some time. They keep pestering you every year until you let em sign it off. The building regs may change but so my local council told me only the regs at the time of your build will be taken in to account. If you come to sell the house nobody will want to buy it until it has been signed off. If the extension is done get it signed off unlike me.

Jim

Hi mate, can you do nissan club declas, maybe with our site name on as well?

[dan]

I do Motorhome Hire in Cornwall, so if you fancy a holiday in the UK or Europe I can help you out there!

If you fancy owning one, can help you out there too as we do a thing called 'motorhomeshare' where you can shared ownership, have a newer vehicle rather than some old crock and have no running costs/maintenance etc to deal with as we cover that through hire fees. It is similar to a time share, but your money is always safe, and there is no argo involved, and we don't imprison you in a hotel to listen to drivel.

Also have an Auto Electronics company, they supply and fit vehicle trackers (where you and a tracker company can see your vehicle/boat/plant/bike - cheapest subscription fees in the biz) we also do taxi meters, In car CCTV cams (taxis and off road trips) and fit Digital TV's - single and double din, freeview compatible, Digital/cb radios etc all in cornwall.

In my spare time, I try NOT to buy any more companies!:D

[supergnome]

I have always asked for a discount.....its part of negotiation and I always give " luck " money on things I sell if no discount is asked for.
I think this can only be applied to services where the supplier is the boss so there is room for movement in the price. David.

...the skyline...

You run one? Are you a member of skylineowners or GTROC?

[Terranical]

Before retirement I was a Pitney Bowes engineer, maintaining and fixing industrial size mailing machines - not much use to any members unless you happen to have an odd APS or Flowmaster hiding in the garage - have to be a big garage though. However, I have been known to knock up a pretty fair omelette!

You could sell on the side as it were, accept paypal gift and keep outside of ebay to reduce selling costs?

Seems like you may be a good member to ask what your views are on the benefits of fitting -'tune-it boxes or other systems that reckon to save fuel and/or improve performance. I have a 3.0ltr auto 53 reg.Terrano,and am seriously considering fitting a tune-it box or any other device that will both uplift performance and mpg. I want to keep the motor but running two cars is now becoming expensive. Any thoughts from you or anybody with experience of this type of system would be very much appreciated. Mike.P

Hadn't seen this topic yet.

By trade I am an airline pilot, flying both short- and longhaul. Not to bad the occasional few days in the sun. :D

Before becoming a pilot I worked as a airframe & powerplant licensed aircraft engineer with a specialization in powerplants. Still hold a current EASA Part66 B1 license.

As a side business to my flying I have a small demolition company and we operate 2 360 excavators and some smaller equipment.

All the above keeps me pretty busy and my project (see Y61 thread) is not progressing as much as I had hoped because of this.

jonela is right, well impressed, particularly that red work top how did you do those water spouts and basins? Rick

Composite smelly glue colour coded to work top. Then much sanding and increasing grades to whatever shine or sheen finish punter wants :)
Router and random orb sander, big piss off vacuum and masks :doh
A bit like your injectors Rick, cleanliness IS indeed all :thumb2
It's what I do most weeks.
I design supply and fit bespoke kitchens :D

I fabbed the Worktops from lg himacs. I form a sub straight from mdf then the Himacs comes in 12mm thick sheets, I form the edges by building it downwards with rips glued and clamped then it all gets routered and sanded up

The red boiler taps were dropped into recesses that I routered out by hand working to a clamp on straight edge and corners done free hand ( my arse was twitching I can tell thee :D )

Very nice, do not think I would have the patience now, best I can handle is formica and joins with a router, although have been asked to do a wood block WT next week that has been oiled, so not sure if my plastic router base will mark it never done one before, but hope to do it from the underside, as it is square edged and use a waste but cramped on the edge to stop it splitting, any other tips would be gratefully received, such as the best glue to use on the one corner joint with biscuits and bolts, Rick

[stinka]

I do square edged oak with my ts55 plunge saw now, really quick, only use router for Belfast sinks

But just use your router as you would if doing laminate, except I just do A but joint in corner no need for butt and scribe joint with jig, and your router base won't mark the oak

[makeitfit]

Biscuit joint it and only glue if it's a short length. You should allow for the oak to move. So a good silicone will suffice for the joint and then bolt clamps to keep the joint tight :thumbs

[(RIP) rustygates]

WoW, what an abundance of varied trades etc,will be depending on you to run this country when it goes tits up, I myself worked in the steel industry, galvanising mainly and some plastic coated steels hp200,for 30yrs, then volunteered for redundancy at 50 never looked back,iv'e been making trailers-gates and-ballastrade since the 80s, retired now and looking after both terranos and taking caravan down narrow lanes where the grass grows in the middle,

Lg himacs ? is that the same as Corian ?

[stinka]

Lg himacs ? is that the same as Corian ?

Yes mate. Corians overpriced. Better colours from lg IMO.

Also use Hanex which is Korean, some interesting colours from these also.

Thanks for that Pete, it is Iroko, and the join will be 600 mm corner and I am not sure about the oiling as it will/may effect the bond, it also has a Belfast sink that they have designed the WT to "but" to the sides and back of the sink with no WT at the front and about 10 mm higher but the sink is not perfectly straight on the sides, I think it would have been better to have the WT sitting on the sink, what are your thoughts, Rick

[stinka]

I always have a Belfast under top with Worktop over hanging about 25mm to the 3 sides. I cut a trenched "drip" about 5 mm deep on the underside about 10mm back to stop water running back along underside of top

[stinka]

Here's one I did a couple of years ago

http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g216/savagemoneypit/null_zps376cbf51.png

They are shit btw, I'd never have one, most customers hate them after a couple of weeks unless they have a dish washer and its just for show, as they are so deep your back aches from bending over

I usually talk customers out of having one :D

[Fez_uk]

I am a electronics engineer, working in production. Only a small business but we ship worldwide most days.

Also do some of the packing of the stuff we make.

[solarman216]

I always have a Belfast under top with Worktop over hanging about 25mm to the 3 sides. I cut a trenched "drip" about 5 mm deep on the underside about 10mm back to stop water running back along underside of top

that sounds like how I would design it, makes perfect sense, as they have fitted the sink already I do not know if it can be altered, perhaps I should stay quiet, but problem is making a nice job of the sink WT junction all I can think of is a nice bead of brown silicon but it will not be long lived, or as the WT is about 10 mm higher put a rebate so the 10 mm bit overhangs but it does not give me a lot to play with for a drip groove, and also the block joins will be weakened, ???

Totally agree, would not have one even if gifted, but cannot talk them out of it as he has done all the rest himself and made a nice job, although not to my taste, but he baulked at the WT as has no router etc, only got involved cos the front door 3 ft x 7 ft timber half glazed has rotted and will have to be replaced, Rick

MAF update all built and tested, just got to put in a box with some flying connections. I should get it to you sometime next week.

Stinka/Makeitfit, don't suppose you fancy a few weeks down here is sunny Sussex in the summer, if Planning is granted, got a project to do that will require your skills, timber brewery in the middle of nowhere have not seen the plans yet but customer is of 30 plus years standing, Rick

[makeitfit]

Rick if you do the job and have to butt up the tops to the side of the sink and the back etc. I'd consider sealing the w/top to sink interface with epoxy. You can get coloured tiling epoxy grout that will do quite a nice job on iroko.
Then oil the hell out of it once it's cured.
Dont forget to oil under sides of w/tops too ;)

Some nice work there Linka :thumb2

I have worked in education, in the UK and internationally, for 27 years. Boarding schools mainly. Taught Design and Technology (DT, CDT, Design, Graphics etc). Having led several faculties and departments I wanted (needed?) a break so took the plunge and have set up as self employed for this year as a consultant within education.

I advise schools (nationally and internationally) on the design, build and human resourcing of Art, Design, Technology and ICT areas. Recently I have added marketing support using social media and other areas. I also advise parents looking to relocate back to the UK on what schools would best suit their needs.

So far...three months in and broke :D but happy not to have to deal with all the admin pressure that exists in teaching currently :doh

I decided to get my hgv licence as I'd had enough of factory life and 6 years on I now do both!! Drive part time for a local vehicle recovery firm but must say, I've never had to recover a terrano! Also a competent diyer and just yesterday had 12 cubic meters of concrete delivered, power screeded and hand floated a base for a new build workshop.. Not mine though. :-/

Hi ,
some not all we do press some panel's using aluminum dies, only good for between 35<>50 panels, we can do panels up to 2400mm long by 1000mm wide depending on how complex. We do sill panels & flat corrugated panels as used on Citroen Acadiane , AK & HY vans Etc

I do have a set of wooden formers for T2, 4 door sills in one section, I suppose I could make some if there is enough interest

What sort of price for say ten pairs, Rick

[terranosaurusdoug]

Or ten sets of front wings :hide:

[staffdog]

Hi Rick,
I will look at the unit price tomorrow for 10pr . from a unit cost point of view if you can round up other member & get 20 pr it would be more cost effective the tooling material cost is obviously lower nearer to the tooling wear limit.
The sill's are correct profile but sans doorsteps, 13mm flange to top edge, if i remember correctly that was OK on the couple of trucks i did but it's a while ago now & I'm at the age of senior moments these days.
Do you think there is any requirement for any other repair sections / panels ??

regards Adrian

never thought somewhere I have drawings for compression rod mount repair pieces (proper cup in MS with a stepped rear flange to mount into frame Brkt hole) used them on mine about 4 yrs ago & still perfect even with orange polybushes

[terranosaurusdoug]

There will be a market for front wings of all models, used ones are starting to sell for silly money now and as far as I know even the grp ones are getting a little hard to find. If it is something that is feasible for you to do then I don't think you will have a problem shifting them.

[solarman216]

Or ten sets of front wings :hide:

Think you are hoping! :rolleyes: Rick

[solarman216]

I use gaffer tape it is so so cheap, :D Rick

[staffdog]

front wings I cannot do with my press / tooling, It's not possible to do the wing mounting flange with the full panel, I looked at this with the last T2 I had, did the body of panel & mounting flange separate & TIGed together ( n/s) but not really viable for a volume run.
Hasn't anyone looked at composite front wings that route seemed viable when I last had any thoughts regarding frt wings
Adrian

[terranosaurusdoug]

I'm in talks with 3M to make some in Nissan metallic green :thumbs

[terranosaurusdoug]

Yeh it is possible to get grp ones on the web.

[staffdog]

your all too quick for me

Rick,
no problem I will cost them up tomorrow

With regard to front wings, I would appear my question re: composite was answered before my post.
We could do them in house if someone has some decent-ish wings to sample from ,I assume both wing types is what we are looking at or only T2 ( corner indicator ) ?

would it be possible / acceptable to start a new thread just for replacement part request / discussion ?

Nice to see a bend other than 90 Degrees !

My pipe bending spring is an old imperial one for 1/2" copper and and will not fit in the Metric equivalent 15mm pipe !

Last year I ran out of 1/2" copper pipe and had to go metric.........groan.

I was given about 10 lengths of 1/2" pipe by a Plumbers Widow who lived next door to my Dad some 25 years ago and it has all finally been used.

Spring??...1/2 inch??...what language is this???:lol I'm metric mainly, 1/2 inch copper is good for the scrap bag though, it weighs more :sly
