John Aldersley has been following closely the progress of some of our young engineers and he reports here with some excellent news…..
“I received a message from Cameron Pinder today. It appears that Martins Golubevs has done really well in the World Skills competition. He and Ben King have been taking part in the CAM and CNC milling competition possibly at regional level.

There is a presentation for World Skills on Thursday (27th November 2025) in Wales and we should receive a full report on how Martins and Ben have fared in the competition. Website:- World Skills
Cameron has been invited to the presentation, which includes some CAM instruction from an engineer from Switzerland, on Mastercam (industry standard CAD/CAM software). Website:- Mastercam
Ben and Martins have taken on the World Skills challenge in their own time, with help from Kirkstall Precision Engineering Ltd., (Kirkstall Precision) guided by Cameron and others at work and with kind sponsorship by our corporate member M.A. Ford Ltd. Website:- M.A. Ford
