Default M'mates place workshop

if your looking for a place to do some DIY like i have been have a look at M'mates place workshop in forrestfield. Ive been wanting to modify my exhaust for a while now and do some other general maintenance and the thing that has made me want to go to this workshop are the hoists. All other tools are provided also. i checked out the workshop this arvo and was very impressed. i will definitely be booking some time there to do some work. works out at $165 for 8 hrs.

Check out their facebook page.

Not bad.

Imma persist with 555mm race jack and car stands. Or more often recently, just having a vehicle you can crawl around underneath stock... Haha.

Life is so much easier with a hoist. I am lucky that we have our own otherwise I wouldn't be able to do the work on my car that I want.
