Hi all, first time on this forum for me.

We will work out all of the correct crush fits, epoxy fits and running clearances for your bearings. We are engineering plastics experts and can help with your material selection.

I support a total ban on scallops until their numbers are back up. Something has to be done. I like the idea of research into why they have decreased so much.

You could get Hull & Decks mouldings for $4,280 or Phil Wilson would sell you a timber frame pack for $625!
