TAFKARM Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 I'm about to ask if anyone in the Essex crew has a brake pipe flarer I can borrow - and thought it might be useful if we had a subforum for these requests? There are loads of engine crane borrowing threads etc...? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pistol Pete Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Sounds a great idea, I think in the Essex Area we have most things covered. Not sure what the best/safest way to achieve this on the forum (probably in the Members Only Area), maybe a post for each Area with a username so the member can be contacted. Any other ideas?

Kit Car Electronics Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 I hava a brake flarer you can borrow, but a bit of a trek over to Maldon for you? Don't suppose anyone has a dual channel digital storage oscilloscope?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAFKARM Posted December 30, 2014 Author Share Posted December 30, 2014 In the members area, then at least we have some security around who's using our stuff... Mike - thanks very much! Maldon isn't too far, or I could get it at the next meet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peet Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Sounds a good idea. I have stuff such as a timing light, grinders and even a welder that I can help with in Surrey Sussex area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark (smokey mow) Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 What say you mods?It's a good idea but personally speaking I'm not convinced that the number of such requests on the forum (1-2 a month ?) warrants them having a dedicated area of the forum of it's own.It's been said before that creating too many sub-forums makes searching and finding threads much more difficult and IMO the Members only area is already under-used compared to other parts of the boardroom (only 16 new threads started in last 3 months). At the moment this seems to be as good place as any for such requests to be made unless demand increases. All IMO, others may have a different view Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SootySport Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Locally we seem to have a good deal of tool borrowing already. Some of us have each others phone numbers and just dial a tool when required or we ask at the Monthly meet. I just call Pete G as he has just about everything Most of the Essex boys know I have a crane, trailer lots of other bits as well. There you go Mike has the Brake flarer for you, sorted.
