Build a Westfield Evening Class - Weymouth

[ecs0set]

Hi all,

I'm talking to one of the lecturers at Weymouth College about running an evening course to build a Westfield. We need 5-8 people to construct a Westfield from a donor MX5. Full instruction and equipment are included. No previous experience is necessary, although knowing the difference between a screwdriver and spanner may help. You may get dirty fingernails!

More details here from the previous course back in Dec 2012: http://www.dorseteye.com/north/articles/new-adult-...

If you're interested, please contact me via PM and I'll see if we have enough people to start the course. I'm looking to obtain a preferential rate but it will probably be a few hundred quid each. The experience and skills gained will be invaluable, not to mention the satisfaction of being able to say that you built a Westfield!

!! NUMBERS ARE LIMITED !! If you are interested, please contact me ASAP! I will be travelling from Poole/Bournemouth if anyone needs a lift.

Ian.

PS. Sadly the ownership of the finished article remains with the college. However I'm sure some test drives can be arranged.

Or even Southampton - be well up for something like that!
I happen to know where a written off MX5 is by chance (rear end) so just need a Westy kit and a big garage!

There are only 8 of us, so we've all met, but it was mostly heads down and getting on with the job, so we didn't really chat much!

Glad you enjoyed it!

I hope everyone got an equal share of the fun. I got a bit carried away dismantling things to check that everyone else was having fun!

Looking forward to next Tuesday!

Edited to add: warm spacious garage, all the right tools, help immediately to hand... this is MUCH more enjoyable than previous car mechanics. I didn't even utter a single swear word!

I know exactly what you mean. It was very enjoyable and very useful having someone on hand passing you tools.

I too got a little carried away with what I was doing, barely looked up!

The only downside was the drive over, 1.5 hours each way is a bit of a mission after work!
