Never met you Ken (skybeau) so I wasnt having ago at you. I was having a go at anyone if u read the post correctly. Thats why the post starts of with the
saying "I disagree etc etc etc respectfully". The respectfully part makes it clear that my comment is only a friendly opinion for the sake of having a post with differing opinions.
And respectfully, u are not in competition with my mate Beaky at all. Andrew (Beaky) has more board work from all over the country than he can handle, and 90 percent of it comes from outside the forum. Andrew (Beaky) also gives people free advice on boards when he inspects them, and he offered to check this power board for free.
Andy's been fixing boards for 20 years, and has probably only known about you for 6 months, so there is no competition in his already thriving pin repair business.
Sorry if u read the post incorrectly leading u to think anyone was having a go at you.
