I've had second thoughts about my needs, I realise they might be a bit pricey, so if it helps you can ditch the hosepipe!

[Jon Fuller]

Wow! Top idea! A webcam! Then we can all log on and offer gratuitous advice to anyone working on their boat... faaaanntaastic....

I'm not sure I would want to see some of the sights that might appear!!

Matt

not buying an aUTOCLAVE but we will be having webcams. I can see the yard from my house so we can respond quickly if there are any problems.

regarding security

I don't like the isea of having a yard which had a padlock and twenty sets of keys or a combination Padlock. we were thinking of manning the yard from 08:00 to 20:00 and then letting people in out of hours on an individual basis. does that make sense! It's still 24 hour access but on a controlled basis.

I was thinking of providing the following hand / power tools

Tools
Trolley jack
Engine Crane/Hoist
Cordless and corded drills
Compressor and polishing mops sanders etc.
Welding set
Pillar drill
Jigsaws
Routers
set of Hole saws
an Angle grinder (if WJ is visiting)
Sockets 1/2 and 3/4 inch drives
Pressure washer
Crosscut saw
Oil sucker uppers (extraction pumps)
Crimp tools small and large,
Battery charger /quick start trolley


Storage
Area for changing with lockers
Container storage

supplies
Small chandlery
45 gallon drums of Opti/2 stroke/4 stroke engine oil
Spark plugs
Batteries

Not sure I'd be welcome there, to join that club, you have to be an obedient little sheep, and I aint.

[Ginger Minge]

What's a bash?

Doesn't sound very friendly!
