We recently had a guy try out with us for a short period of time who couldn't read a conventional mike!!!!and thought 7/16 was bigger than 5/8------

It is unbelievable how hard it is just to go get a few normal bolts these days----
That would be great!! I do this for a hobby so any tech on tooling or tips from the pros would be great!! I myself do not post that often because I type with one finger and butcher the english language,but read and lurk every day. I lurk at the hamb site and usually am in tears from laughing when reading some posts. Learned alot on this site so I THANK ALL OF YOU! keep it coming!! Pete
