I was following along checking out a few build threads on another forum. I did not visit for a while, built a house which consumed every free second and every thought of my life.
Came back and noticed things were different and I finally figured out why. I really like this site. A lot here that I can relate to.
I hope I can gain some wisdom, and maybe even contribute a little every once in a while.

Welcome to our humble but friendly little site!

Welcome!

Thank you sir.
I reckon that was not a proper introduction. I don't really like talking about me much, afraid it sounds like bragging, but here goes.
I love God, Family, Others, and this great county. I currently work as a mechanic on a production platform in the Gulf of Mexico, 7 days on and 7 off.
I take care of diesel engines, big natural gas recip engines, cranes, and turbine engines driving generators and compressors. I grew up on beef and dairy farms. That's where
I learned how to patch together wore out junk with what we had laying around or could fabricate from that. That comes in handy now because there aint a parts store down the
street from my workplace. I am doing my best to pass some of that on to my youngin. She aint made three yet, but every time I go work on something she is right there with me
and she has to have her hammer and wrench with her. Yes, my little girl has her own tools. A while back she was in her Cinderella dress crawling under my truck "helping" me
change the oil. Nothing like raising a country girl. She is 100% daddy's girl.

Welcome, we're glad you're here! Nothing like a mechanic in a dress! Those are the stories you'll tell at her wedding! ;)

I love the stories real people can tell.
Concur with mike...At her wedding tell about that beautiful lady you just gave away, as a inquisitive 3 year old in that Cinderella dress with some good ole' oil spots for good measure!
I love it!
