I don't know if you mean the whole car or not, but I think he deals with the 'personalisation' part of it all...

His job title sounds great / interesting to me, sure he doesn't like every version but I bet he's worked on some very cool cars.

I make these and I wish I'd had one when i was running around a rugby pitch 30 years ago.



These were prizes for a competition we ran a little while back. Looking forward to hear how they get on with them.



There are a few videos on our website that probably explain how they work better than a photograph

I'd like to show you a picture. But I'm a total luddite. I made magazines, then I made a house, I now make hats!

You should still try. Get the picture on to your computer and make a note of its file location. If it's more than 2MB then use one of the many free editing programs (such as MS Paint, probably already on your computer) to reduce the file size.

Then reply to the thread and click where it says 'Upload an image (beta)' and follow the instructions.

I have no idea if this has worked - if it has, this is an early 'testing cheap lightbox shot'. As usually happens at Skint Towers, we got horribly drunk, probably on a Tuesday, and randomly started looking for a hat I wanted. I couldn't find anything similar and thought 'I know, I'll make one. Afterall, how hard can it be?' It was obviously far harder than expected...
Still, you've got to try these things. Just waiting for labels, then they go on sale officially!

Been trying new things - this was all with (mainly) vintage brooches



and baubles...



And my biggest achievement earlier this year, I made the bouquets and buttonholes here



this was the wedding of Liam Payne's sister - and Liam (One Direction) is sporting one of my designs. It's been a good year beer

What a great idea for a thread - bit of resurrection required biggrin

The only headache is that I make music. Not allowed to promote stuff on here (as I've found out before) - so I'm being really careful biggrin



Feel free to ask though smile

I've replied to this thread previsouly however I thought it was about time I showed you guys what we do and how accurately we do it.

In short we design and build exhibition stands all over the world. I'd like to state that we are not the cheapest however by no means are we the most expensive!

What we are is honest...........If we design and build a stand for you and you decide to use us you will get exactly what you see yes

If you look at this link here you'll be directed to a webpage on our site that shows a design from rough scamp through to the build and this was from a show in London early February 2020.

Couple of pictures here albeit the webpage tells a better story:







However the real fun starts here click this

If you clikc the link you will see we've just started to use a really clever piece of software that offers our clients a true 3D visual of their stand from any angle - if they don't like what they see, let's adjust it until they do.

We strive to be the best in our industry and whilst we may not be the biggest contractor or build the biggest stands we have a siple saying 'it will do, isn't good enough'.

Thanks for looking thumbup
