    I don't know if it's just Kiwi slang, "for Africa" just means you have a lot of something.

    If I ever get down that way I'd love a tour! I don't think they do that "at HM Pleasure" anymore...

    ........that’s Australia you’re thinking of.......... different country in a different ocean......

    ( and yes, ‘for Africa’ means a lot, or too many.......).

    Wish you were closer. Beautiful set up. We use to have shops here with similar equipment. Build anything you need. I miss those days.

    Well some Aussie told me that once which I was surprised to hear. Miss telling the truth maybe the reason they had to go "down under"!

  7. Very cool! I worked in a sheet metal shop for 6 years, loved working on unique projects that came through the shop!
