That sums up the entirety of my last five years.

Except for one place. They were pretty loyal to me and would pay a little more. The relationship is the only thing that let me get away with that because it was a really good one.

What part of the country are you in?  I may have machine shops needs in the future for professional and personal projects.  PM me your business contact info when you're ready to start quoting work...

Best of Luck, although it sounds as if the need for luck will not be central to your success plan.

Let me know when you are rich and bored

DUDE!!!

Good for you!

I packed up and moved to Cali to start a business 7 years ago with only $2k and a dream.

I've since built up that business and sold it.  If a dork like me with absolutely no head for the ins and outs of business can do it, I have no doubt you will be a grand success!!!!!   waytogo applause

I find it disturbing that you're imagining me in a sauna, never mind the teletubbie aspect of it

I had to laugh.  When I first read this I was thinking a claymore mine (click click boom type) and I'm thinking to myself how does that go with a kilt? 

then-

ooooohhhh

NWPA but it really doesn't matter.  I can do work for anyone anywhere.  Once I'm almost up and running I post up contact info.

I'll keep that in mind but I don't think that was my bike. . .  I had a 2000 900ie that I powdercoated the wheels and frame black. . .
