Doofer Co.

Not as good as Fred or Uncle Jez, but given time, I think this one could do ok.

At least they weren't [i]just [/i]tedious and rude.

True, but give him time, he's only had a few months.

Jamie - that's class !

How about a combination of yours and your business partners initials?

You can try but MH and JW don't do anything for me.

Use your stw username, plus something generic that encompasses biking.

Hudders' Field Components

Sounds like I would be a fan of football, I'm not a fan of football, I'm an angry hairdryer fan.

MJ Machining?

edit: maybe not based on potential Michael Jackson questions..

Just for the record, I've CNCed components that have ended up on racing cars, including Formula 1, military aircraft, submarines and some of my components are currently in orbit around the Earth, and I'm definitely in the "misinformer is a shit-talking moron" camp.

Have a nice day. 🙂

CNCT!

oh JOY pass the dutchy has endowed us with his presence!

Yay! go me....

Answered anyones questions yet? Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha.... you love it.

Yup snob is a machinist. pretty much the guy who does what people like me tell them has he ever considered the part has come out of forged stock
...only thing in orbit is your sense of self worth, machinists don't design anything that goes in a plane sub or spacecraft you douchebag...enjoy tomorrow's shift work

Crikey. You're now into the realms of dick, rather than just 'clueless buffoon'.

For the OP - CompuGlobalHyperMegaNet?

keyboard warrior components?

Miss Informer - so much promise but so little delivery

Op where are you specialising? DH, XC, Trials?

Actually I started as just an operator, then a setter, then a programmer, then did in-house design before taking over as quality manager. All the components I mentioned were made from billet and not forged. I'll post a picture of one of my components, if you like. Are you willing to do the same?
BTW, after taking a five year holiday, I now work in a different industry and have the week off, so no shift work for sbob, you silly little boy. 😀

OP: Please help me come up with a name for my new venture, thanks!

STW: VomitbilespleenaaaaRRTrrrrgggGGggh

I'm sorry, your post makes no sense because you are interminably stupid.
Would you care to have another go (keep in mind it's a school night and you should be in bed soon)?

Don't fancy taking me up on my picture challenge? 😆

No idea who does CNC work for bike components these days [url= https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=hope+cnc&espv=210&es_sm=122&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=_g4yU5n8GYL2lAXI54DIDg&ved=0CAgQ_AUoAQ&biw=1600&bih=799&dpr=1 ]Hope Someone can tell me[/url]

Op where are you specialising? DH, XC, Trials?

Its early days so it's hard to say, XC is our roots but some parts can cross over, I'm all for clean design with low weight, so it could be parts for a Single Speed and parts for a Trail Bike/Enduro beast.

Yawn bike components again made of shitty billet which crack and fail
And get replaced and sold on to the next mug after they have received some of hopes awesome customer service.

Oh hold on they forge their hub bodies though and they still fail
Yup ex aerospace boys who no longer work in aerospace...and quality goes to shit.

Ps that wasn't aimed at hudders it was for Dr morris

Don't have time now I'm off to watch amethyst stone collection on the shopping channel

[b]Misinformer[/b], whats your beef, you've had ago at at least 3 people and pissed off several more, why don't you step away from the keyboard for a bit and give everyone a break.

Yep just back from the garage and nothing has cracked, failed or snapped, nothing back to the warranty department. Must just be me.

There is an NZ outfit getting going, (mates of some guys I ride with) who started as a CNC shop by persuading one of their guys not to take a better paid job elsewhere by providing him with overnight use of the CNC machines. They are releasing a line of stuff this year, if you can do straight to market stuff then you might have a shot, the 40/42t stuff is a good example. Get into something before SRAM/Shimano do make your money and move on.

These days niche manufacturing is great if you have low overheads.

What's my beef? you'll find out as time goes on chap unfortunately I just don't conform to the clique

So forgive the not giving a rats about expert keyboard opinion givers and upsetting them after all in the might positions they allude to I'm sure they won't lose any sleep

@thegreatape I can't stay on here all night, don't worry I'll return to continue not kissing the collectives arse tomorrow, I'll continue to base it on opinion also which will maybe upset some

here was me thinking it was based on facts

Your logged in to STW you did realize?

Is misinformer actually going to back-up anything he has said with a shred of evidence after being caught out or is he just trolling?

Surely anyone who is able to type "I just don't conform to the clique" and keep a straight face must be mentally unbalanced.

Why would I have to evidence anything I'm misinformer

misinformer - Member

my mum hasn't said that for 35 years

Well I'm well aware of her personal preferences, I just didn't know you two were [i]that[/i] close. 🙂

Trolling then....? well done you got a few bites... 🙄

Shame it was at the expense of someones topic...

Trolling then....?

Lordy...

No but I don't have to prove anything.

If you have nothing relevant to add then please refrain from contributing.

Interesting.

I actually invented CNC machining and I can tell you categorically that misinformed is talking out of his arse.

I invented forging, and on Thursdays misinformer comes to my house and sacrifices billets to appease me.

See that's just not even believable is it.

Really? That's amazing! ...and totally believable.

I invented MTB and I'm too retro for you.

misinformer is brilliant!, mods, please let him stay!

Deus ex machina

unfortunately already brand in a similar sphere

I did 2 postdocs researching aerospace alloys (SSC in 7050 and superplasticity in 7475), and I think Misinformer is brilliant. Best trolling on here in a while.

Not nearly clever enough to keep it up. Lowest common denominator trolling, gets too defensive too fast. No variety, just straight in with second rate put downs.

We've all seen better, it's just more amateur white noise.

What are the names of your local/favourite trails?

Great for inspiration. I named one recently 'Two tone'.

^ did you fall off and get a ska? 😀

My mate James is the head machinist for a company his cousin owns.

Two completely different trails in one. Starts loamy, goes rooty/rocky then back to tight loamy singletrack. Maybe threepack would have been better 😆

um, its too early to think

All I know is I'm brimful of bromance for Misinformer. Been aaaages since we've had a genuine berserker on this forum. The internet loves a loose cannon.

Failing that, the first suggestion has to be the winner.

Love this thread. Have nothing to add of sufficient quality though so just thought I'd lower the average a bit.

I think I'd have to call it BiekPron.
