Re: FTO Community Assistance
I asked at my local "Mister Minit" store for a blank red alloy engraving plate today, after telling him what I was doing he donated the plate for free.PHIL069 wrote:Sahin wrote:I'll send you the $8 Phil just coz I like your attitude towards the club (whilst having a lot of fun) and your helpful nature.

Well done Sahin![]()
Should we wait and see if anyone else wants to share the cost, more members might want to be part of thismaybe 4 members @ $2 each or 8 members @ $1 each
BTW, I intend engraving "Donated by the members of FTO Australia 2012" on a small metal plate and sticking it inside the fuel lid (I am a trained hand engraver, the kind of engraving that gets done on jewellery/watches), I will also take pics of the hand over and instalation.

Anyway, received the fuel door from dstocks today

Will do the engraving on the weekend, hoping to do my 'random act of kindness' on monday

BTW, I thought this might bring me some good karma, but............
I worked out today that my inner passenger CV needs replacing and I have a nail in my rear tyre (I can fix this one with borrowed equipment from work, but I will have to get it refilled with nitrogen) and I dropped my smart phone today and I am left with half the screen black

Re: FTO Community Assistance
I have engraved a plate today and stuck it to the fuel flap. I am hoping to present it tomorrow afternoon after work.
I used a brass plate because I stuffed up the red plate, I haven't engraved anything for ages

Yes by hand, with a hand engraver spinning a mini carbide burr @ 30,000 rpm, just like the drill a dentist uses.
