Hi, I’m Edd. Welcome to my workshop. I love exploring things, fixing things and making things.
“Edd China is the quintessential British eccentric; TV presenter, inventor, engineering product designer and Wheeler Dealers’ favourite mechanic.
Fixing things, Engineering Product Design, innovation and mechanical engineering are what make him tick. Always keen to connect things that aren't normally connected, he created the World's first street legal driving sofa in 1998; the ‘Casual Lofa’, which got him his first Guinness World Record for “Fastest Furniture” at 87mph!
Since then he’s gone on to set many other records, most recently; World's Fastest Electric Ice Cream Van revolutionising the industry by developing the World's first all electric ice cream van.”

Merry Christmas and Rubbery New Year!!
OK so this year's video publishing has been a little sporadic to say the least! Apologies for that, I have been busy making a load of videos but still need to finish off everything before you get to enjoy them so to help encourage you to get in the workshop I thought I might treat you to a Christmas gift of 20% off my legendary Extra-Long Orange Nitrile Gloves!
They will keep your hands clean and a bit warmer during these winter months and could be the perfect gift for that friend or family member that can't help but get filthy in the Holidays!
Offer ends on the 31st of December.

How do you finish off an amazing weekend? Surely you grab a tea, sit back, and think of forklifts! We're getting very close now; in this episode we grind our ribbed crankshaft, use fire to force on some posh pistons and I investigate the cause of gunge in our gas! All very satisfying and even more of the engineering detail you love so much. Enjoy!

Having sorted the engine block of our forklift truck engine last week, today's episode follows the engineering work required to give a good head to the very same engine! It's amazing how tiny changes can make all the difference to the performance of an engine, whatever it's going in. Enjoy heaps more machine shop goodness and a few more engineering Edduendos (if your mind is dirty enough)!

It's here! Last week's episode is now ready for your viewing pleasure and its all about the engineering work required to refurbish our old forklift truck engine. Somehow this snuck in in front of starting the Ferrari but it is very interesting (and not boring at all)! Enjoy and have a great weekend!

Been a very busy filming week but not managed to get a full episode up but I do have a question: What would be your Top Five Classics projects I should tackle on Workshop Diaries? As the bed car didn't seem to float your boats, is there and Oddball build you would like to see? Answers in the comments please...

Hurrah! This week's episode has been approved and is now available for your delectation!! I save hundreds by fixing an expensive parts washer by simply using some household chemistry that costs practically nothing!
Enjoy and have a great weekend!

It's here! We teased the building of our brand new underfloor-heated, toasty warm building, inside our freezing cold workshop building in our most recent 'Cheapest Ferrari in Europe' episode. It isn't really about cars but it is definitely all about chunky engineering and absolutely something you can do at home (if you have the space and a forklift)!
Enjoy and have a great weekend!
