Hi there,
I am new to your forum and am interested in making various tools for myself.
I have ran a Automatic transmission business for 20 years and am now in the teaching game

I look forward to joining this forum
Cheers
Ross

Hi Ross - welcome to HomemadeTools.net

Business owner, transmission specialist, teacher - sounds like you have some skills that will be in high demand here

What's next up on your build list? Any specific tools that you want to build next?

Mate,
Thinking of making a lifting jig for getting autos onto the bench without breaking my back, a man is getting too old for that
Just ordered a electric winch 250 kg so I need to work out how to make a lifting frame to mount it onto without the frame being in the way
Any ideas
