Thanks for the Welcome, David. I just want to say that I welcome all opinions on this board, so don't anyone be afraid to chime in.

I'll soon get to know the regulars who visit this board. One regular I already know is Tom -- he and I go back a few years. Tom's great at answering questions and his continued help will be invaluable. Thanks Tom!

Like David mentioned, I have my own mobile home repair business. From time to time I'll share stories of my days out in the field -- there's never a dull moment. When the need arrises, I also have some interesting links to some unique products that could solve some challenging problems.

So stay tuned . . . . the fun has only begun.
