Just an idea seeming we are all in the same area.

How would you like a section for Tools.

Say your doing a job or going to do a job and you need a certain tool, but dont own one, how would you like a section to ask to borrow or rent the special tool from someone close by, or maybe you want to buy one, and post a wanted add.
Some tools you only use once.
Or maybe you would like to sell a tool.

eg code readers / engine crane ...

Just an idea give me your thoughts.

Definitely a good idea.

Anyone got anything useful for pulling off/pressing on rear wheel bearings on an E30?
Preferably with the trailing arms in situ?

As Phil said above, we've got a couple of BWM specials, and a f**k load of other tools, so yeh just let either of us know and we'll sort something out.

Its happening mate. I think we just need someone to post something that they need to borrow pal.

We will have a dedicated section for this too.

It is what i think a brilliant idea from Loz and its also great that the forum has only been going a month or so and people already have enough trust with eachother to lend tools and stuff out to one another.

AND... if anyone has any tools that need replicating, if we arrange for me to borrow it i will try my very best to get one made for you, either out of nylon, steel or aluminium.
