Violins - Handcrafted in Taranaki
Current stock includes three new instruments and one antique restored Markneukirchen instrument. The new instruments are built by myself from imported and native woods. They are to my own design and will suit advanced students who understand their instrument. They are not factory-perfect replicas, and have various asymmetries in the detail, but they each have a unique voice and will reward the players who create a relationship with the instrument. Specific details of each instrument, including build histories, are at "violinsbyjoel.blogspot.com...
I will accept your old instrument as part-trade, negotiable depending on mutual values.
Feel free to contact me through this listing, or through my FB site "www.facebook.com...
Recommendations please - Heatpump Repair
Hi,
Looking for someone reasonable to provide a quote to fix a Panasonic heat pump that a) leaks a little when on cool mode and b) doesn’t heat.
Appreciate all your recommendations
Thanks.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?
