    back home, having fun

     



    well figure its time for an update, work was drying up so i left the company i was working for in north dakota the 23rd of dec he closed it all down sold off all the trucks. so i am going back to trade school for maching/cnc/cnc programming. its free to me cant turn down free education, and will be helping my friend get his shop going. he bought all of the equipment from chris's dad after he passed away. so i am going to try and help keep "performance machine" alive. its not an auto machine shop per-se we can do some things but mainly are into general machining, tools, parts, etc for now at least.

    the pics are when it was all getting shuffled to the new shop. its all full now! just been doing lot of cleaning, sorting, and organizing. oh yeah there's 2 racecars to those stack injectors were made by chris's dad, don "double-d" we call him, not why you think either! they are for fathead hemi. the motor they used to be on was an old brad anderson.

    Thanks for the update, Scooter! That x, y, z school will be a good one for you, machining tech is the same regardless of it's application. By the way, if that's one of my FED's back there, I want my frame to be painted silver with motor plates for a modular Ford if you please!!!!

    Neat toys and tools!! I see you have the chair positioned to keep an eye on them. I wish you the best with the machine shop.
