What has happed to you does not define who you are-
HOW you react to what happens to you DOES!

Well shoot! I swung by the place and couldnt find it. Looked to be in a small industrial park but no sign. So I called them. He said they moved to a new location. Ok, whats the new address? Well were not open!...? Said the new shop doesnt have electricity nor water yet. Said it would probably be a couple weeks. Damit! I did speak with him a bit. Seemed like a really nice guy. Told him my biggest job is replacing an air blending actuator for the heat/ac system (which means removing most of the dash board). Said it shouldnt be a problem and he could help. Said he doesnt charge to answer questions or simple help like moving something that would take more than one person to move/remove. But he said if he starts doing all the work he may charge, but its open for negotiation. Seemed like a really nice straightforward dude.

I used them in the Navy. We sandblasted our spark plugs in a special little cabinet back then.

Ive heard good things about those shops. I wish there was one close to me for wood working.
