I've been living here for a little while now , but still struggling with the local knowledge of 'go-to' places for things like metal , powdercoating , sandblasting etc ,
Got a little workshop at the back of the house with a yard , Love to tinker and chat about cars all day , anyone else like minded wanna get involved in a little community spirit?

Bolf,
I'm Milton Keynes but I work up in Cranfield, not too far really.
Like you I don't really know the good local places, despite living here for over a decade!
If you know of any units my side of Bedford let me know, I'm looking for somewhere.
And I could join in a bit of community spirit, if you'll take someone from roundabout city that is.
Rob

I've already got myself a little 2 car workshop at the back of my house  But there are lots around , just drive round a few farms and see if anyone has a barn empty , cheaper than a industrial unit for sure! |

I'm in north Luton (occasionally work out of Ampthill) and into the old Triumphs. I carry a small bag of rust with me when I'm away from home so I always have something to remember them by.

Hello all. A lurker here, currently residing in Oakley, Beds. I have recently rented a single garage from a housing agency in a block of garages in the next town along, Clapham, but so far haven't managed to find it. The housing agency have no idea which garage I have rented, the key they gave me doesn't fit in any of the locks on any of the garages in the block. Am somewhat disappointed, to say the least. Anyhow, got a TR7 and a Karmann Ghia which i need to find a roof for. Would be great to hear from anyone who can help.

With thanks to Chris it looks like I have secured the 2 car unit in Bromham. Looks like there are a few peeps in our area into their rides. Maybe we could get together one weekend morning and chat? Perhaps at one of our respective workshops?

Sounds good, think I even left a sturdy workbench in there for you!

Well I think it'd only be fair to get some names down and remind people to bookmark this , and we'll organise a bacon butty or two one day in January?
