I'm not sure that PA "bought" Bedwas.

Was the plant not given to him together with £500,000 to cover ongoing costs?

Wendy -

"Surely "hamster" has a "P"?"

That's what I used to think. Then I discovered Wikipedia disagreed with me, so I gave in...which I don't do very often :-)

"hamster" has a "P"


Good name for a short and not very enthralling natural history programme !!!

Surely "hamster" has a "P"?

Careful Charlie - Hammy_Davies_Snr might be eight feet tall with a degree in cybernetics.

...but then again he could be a tap dancing hamster with a degree of cynicism.

[prambigear] 06/8/2007 17:02

and anyway he "always tells it like it is". Er, well, he doesn't actually. He talks a load of tosh!

[hammy_davies_snr] 06/8/2007 16:59

Don't be too hard on Charlie, he's a bit sore that his pump and dump on PRM last week was uncovered by ....Charles Clore.(Doh!)

[charles clore] 06/8/2007 15:53

I wouldn't disagree with you there, Bluebelle.

[bluebelle] 06/8/2007 15:36

Oh I don't know Charles : rather perceptive and incontrovertible I thought !!!

[charles clore] 06/8/2007 15:34

You silly little man

[hammy_davies_snr] 06/8/2007 15:25

other than teh share price

[bluebelle] 06/8/2007 15:22

I remember checking this lot and their portfolio out in some detail a while ago : nothing's ever straightforward with TDM !!!

[the sixpenny knight] 06/8/2007 10:44

Don't ask me; I'm still wondering how Wendy's Pa managed to buy Bedwas :-)

Thanks Knight !


23080 : I think that's always been part of the problem and it looks like PA has inherited it from KB : they think that by getting MPs etc. on board they can open doors and get grants for them. There is a place for that in certain circumstances but not when you lack a really good, focused, sales and marketing guy, which none of these companies has ever had.

EPT has also acquired a licence for the manufacture of Deep Draw products using the revolutionary new Powder Impression Moulding process developed by 3DM Worldwide plc.

From their web site



Anyone ever find out the corporate structure at Evo Tek ? (and on a similar subject, whatever happened to Eden resources ?)

[charles clore] 06/8/2007 08:58

Hey, now there's an idea gilts!

[giltspur] 05/8/2007 19:55

TSK still waiting for his plastic battleship to come up the Tees? LOL

[the sixpenny knight] 05/8/2007 18:04

Giltspoon -

As they don't have any barges on the river Cover, you are not likely to get the chance.

[giltspur] 05/8/2007 15:18

Life would be less complicated if they had one company with one order book, and some cash generation, alas musical company certificates seems to be the fashion with this lot.

I wouldn't touch it with a barge pole.

Henry Bellingham MP, is also a (non-executive) director of Environmental Polymer Technologies Limited. He is also non-executive vice-chairman (and shareholder) of Longborough Capital PLC.

Tony Baldry MP is still hanging in there, possibly because he has so many different share holdings he's forgotten what he does have and what he doesn't.

I'm just a simpleton, life is far less complicated.

[giltspur] 04/8/2007 11:31

Aylmore is a director of ENVIRONMENTAL POLYMER TECHNOLOGIES LIMITED formerly 3dm Environmental Ltd.

They have more company certificates than Wendy has share certificates in her bottom drawers.

Where did all the money go? LOL

Yes that was my understanding but It's a while since I followed it that closely. If he had rights to the IP it could be an interesting company if, as it appears, it doesn't he's just another struggling manufacturer with a good idea but as yet no market for it, with the added burden that, if he ever does sell anything, every pound he brings in is only worth 70p gross.

I suspect his heart ruled his head on this one : he simply can't conceive of the fact that no one wants his mousetrap and can't/won't embrace marketing : seen it all before all too often. Usually ends up with someone buying the assets for £1 !!!

[wdurham] 04/8/2007 09:52

Bluebelle - I'm pretty sure that the rights to the IP remained with 3DM when PA "bought" Bedwas.

He owns the robotic manufacturing plant, with its expense and overheads.
he has to pay 30% of sales to TDM


So am I right in thinking he's simply a licencee and has no interest in the IP of the PIM process ?

As I understand it, 30% of nothing equals nothing, and 30% of a little equals next to nothing.


I remember seeing a photo from The Guardian of a local authority workers picket line where one guy was holding up a banner saying

"4.6 per cent of nothing is nothing. We want 6 per cent".
