We make joinery for office fit outs, hotels that sort of stuff, not mass production more bespoke stuff that fancy designers keep coming up with.

Got a website, Mick. I have a couple of friends who run businesses installing mezzanine floors and similar. Could always show them what you do.

A website is next on the list, maybe get that done once the unit is ready. We are sponsoring one of the riders in the Ducati Tri options cup so he coming up to do some promo stuff as well.

Good luck to you and your mate. I know you put a shift in so it's bound to be a big success.

Where about is the unit, close to home?

Looks good Kingfixer!

All credit to you and your mate for going it alone, it’s never the easy option but at least you will get out what you put in and you are now the masters of your own destiny!

Handy too that you now have plenty of room for the bikes!!

Looks great, mate! Is this any closer to me from Bristol? I feel like I recognise this place (unless that's because they all look similar) :D

Ah okay I thought it was near Berkeley/Sharpness area. You're about 20 minutes from where I am right now then. Nice work!! I'll have to commute in on the bike in the summer and pop in to take a look after work (Y) Some nice roads between the two of us
