For those of you who do not know me, I am the group moderator. I
started this group last month in hopes of gathering and sharing ideas
about my newly acquired 9" SB Model A.
I am overwhelmed with the turn out. Some great idea and discussions
have already taken place.
I thought it would be a great idea for us to give a little background
about ourselves. I will start out and hope others will follow.
My name is Jim Taylor and I am 39 years old. I live in Nova Scotia,
Canada and have worked for Michelin Tire for over 20 years as a
maintenance troubleshooter and now in spare parts and procurement.
While employed with Michelin, a childhood friend and I started a
Machine and Fabrication shop in 1983. With a staff of between 6 - 8
people, we serviced the majority of manufacturing and processing
plants in our area. We also designed equipment for the manufacturing
industry. I have since sold my interest in the machine shop and now I
am setting up shop again in my basement for fun.
I am hoping to that my experience in running a machine shop and my
current purchasing job can contribute to this group in finding and
souring parts and materials or problem solving.
I would also like to take a moment to thank Paul Hvidston for his
contribution to this group. He has been a great asset in keeping this
group alive. Keep Up The Good Work Paul.
Lets here from all of you.
Jim
