Interests:

I was the only motorcycle mechanic in my squadron as this had been an interest

since the age of 16 (I still like classic motorcycles). I started welding in 1974 - at

which time I was using mainly gas welding equipment, and some pure arc. Later I

more often used Mig. In the Netherlands, some of my work has been the repair and

fabrication of parts for three axle steer trailers. I also have interests in other

subjects such as model making, motorcycle & car repairs, fishing, reading, eating

out, and travel.
