Yacht window trims made to order
This would depend on the supply of a drawing or an exact template by whoever wants them?
What started out as an idea was expanded to the point where the trims were fabricated, painted with epoxies and polyurethane top coats. The boats cabin top has six windows, making the 6mm five ply okoume marine ply trims was a full weeks work due to the many stages.
Setting out takes most time, then the cutting has to be done , Power tools and hand tools, then hand finishing and drilling the screw holes, countersinks etc. This can more easily be done faster and cheaper on the CNC machine we use.
Fitted today, they look like they should have been there all along?
Easy, well sort of but the idea did take some time.
They can be now be made on the CNC machine we use and posted to you world wide.

Hillman Imp standard wheel trims
The car is near finished and it will be taken away by its owner tomorrow with a low bed trailer.Once he has it at home he will sort out the roadworthy and licence side in his local town.
We managed to fit a set of Ford Fiesta disc brake calipers and Ford KA discs to the front of this Hillman Imp.
This represents a years work.
How easy was that, a good question I keep asking myself.

The rims and embelishers are original, the steel rims were made by Sanky and carry the stamping / 71 which kind of proves its a 1971 made car.
