Training as a HGV Driver, used to work as a Supply Chain Planner at Screwfix until I had the bright idea of driving trucks for a living. Tempted by all the Ł700 per week ads.

We'll see....

Engine builder at Dunton Research centre, we build engines ready to go our dyno's for testing, they are used for whatever testing is needed then most of the time we have to tear them down and re measure components, there is loads of measuring on the build up including valve stem diameters every 10mm along, valve head diameters, compression ratios, valve decay, deck heights, crank throw, rod length and head gasket thickness to gain the correct compression ratios, gudgeon pin diamteters, cylinder bores, gudgeon pin bores, cam bores, big and small end bores etc etc, i love it, plenty of time for home work too and all the machinery, tools, you'd ever need
