Jacob: Take alittle advise: First: congrats on the shop. Once you take the step, don't look back.
2nd: Don't borrow money to do it. Start little, and build inventory as you go
3rd: Don't wast alot of time and money on projects like this a-arm delima. Don't you wonder why companies put dale stuff off until all of the new stuff is caught up? Poor Eric has new dale stuff sitting on the shelf now he can't sell. Do you really blame him for wanting to invest him time and money on a part that is going to sit on the shelf?
4th: Did I mention not to borrow any money for you project? Why? Well, when you get tired of answering the little 15 year olds emails for prices, then them sending that email to other vendors to get them to beat the price: and they have no intention of buying in the first place. Kind of a pain in the :w:
