Sure is nice when you have to fix something and not have to call a repairman! More than likely, you will find someone who fixed the very thing that you are having issues with... whether it be a car, a clothes dryer, a furnace, or whatever. :thumbsup:

Funny how dat work out. Onliest one I yet got to see is Utoob4boob of guy who fixed so good only person could make it work was guy who brought replacement. I got hope tho, hear dat Andrew DeSmash got video of him changin starter on D-4.

Lookin fer de ones of guys who fixed so good it fixed so nobody can repair too.

Dem Pakistan fellow pretty good on truck repair & drivin. Few guys section tires like was done here until OSHA came along and screwed things up. Maybe heavy tire shop can bring in Pakistan guy on H2 visa.

A buddy was a welder for 35 years, heavy duty metal fab, boilers etc. He wanted me to tech him guitar so....it was apparent he could not really control his right hand. No problem, just strum.

End of the day, he's recovering from neck surgery. It's been almost 1 year. He loves to drive my tractor but when he needs to open the 4 in 1 bucket, he must reach over with his left hand to press the buttons.

Doc figured it was from that quick nod welders use to lower their helmet. I guess he did that about a billion times?

Aussie Doctors got official diagnostic code called "Welder's fracture" fer neck condition. Chiropractors make lot of money from it.

Bad habit most kids pick up tryin to act like old guys don't know better. Longer you live more it hurts.

SHE didn't.
General Electric did.
Original product was self darkening windows but the price killed market needed to make the product profitable.

Somebody cut the size of the window considerably and stuck it in a helmet for only $1400-

Somebody else started making de glass in china. Price of hoods dropped considerably.
