Hello from St Louis
« on: August 10, 2014, 08:39:40 PM »
Hi everyone. I am learning new things and picking up as much info as I can.  I have been working on my car and my families cars mostly, just little things like fluid changes, rotations and brakes. There are some small metal working projects I have going as well, beginner things.

I won't pop up a whole lot - maybe a question here and there.  Mostly I'll be reading and learning

Cheers

Tom

Welcome from Southern Arizona.
It starts as fluid changes and minor jobs, but, before long, you're doing major repairs. lol

Yeah, a major repair is just a bunch of minor jobs at the same time.

You might enjoy attending the local tool auctions hosted by Mike Urness at Harvester Lions club.   Great  plains Trading Co. or V Bierman auctions.  Great fun.   Chuck Garrett

Howdy, Tom.  Join in the fun.  It's only a $1 wrench at the garage sale away.

But then your hooked for life :)

who gave that right to me.
