    True, cheap stoves are easy to come by. My problem is garage floor space. I might have just enough room left for a toaster oven. One of these days, I'll be able to put up another shop like I had in the north country.

    I’m not real sure WTF is going on over there, but I get tired of running back and forth to have **** re-done. And my body guy gets tired of re skim coating parts bc if it doesn’t turn out he has to blast it all off...
    He’s doing 1 piece at a time and I’m not sure if he’s run out of powder and had to order more that’s a shade off, but this Ole Boy is going to STOP the bleeding!!!!

    I worked down the road from an outfit called Morton Metal Craft. They handle a lot of sheet metal work for Caterpillar, John Deere, and various other Midwest manufacturing companies. They had vats of approved colors, and they go through a quality check to ensure that the sheet metal will match the rest of the machine that was powder coated at a different time, and a different location. In short, it's your local shop that is trying to soak you for their shoddy work.

    I might be able to compete with you Senior Chief, in the cheap department. At least the long suffering Misses says I am. She asks where do I want to go out to eat? I respond, where do we have coupons to?

    AHHHHHHHH! I just told my wife the reason we need to pay the long dollar for a printed paper, is the coupons! As you burn down your resources, you sure do learn the value of CHEAP! Let someone else print them out! The ink for my printer cost more than the delivery.
