    That is the reason i have never started a company Don, im sure i could have made more money through the years, but the hassles are not worth it to me!! Working for someone else allows me to do my 8 hour day then walk away. I do not have to work until late in the night, nor do i have to stress about it either.

Have you had to reinvent your business in these tough economic times?

    I figure there are a lot of guys who are now hobbyists who have considered making the leap, and that you who have been there could offer some suggestions and tips.

    As for me, I was influenced by my brother into it. I knew nothing about cars (except to drive) way back but my bro was the culprit. Now, our bonding time is getting all greasy and assembling up car engines.
