formworker ( construction )

scotts74birds 07-25-2009 04:58 PM

Electrician with 20 yrs experience. Worked 10 yrs in residential, commercial and industrial construction and service. Last 10 yrs repair and maintenance of automated assembly systems including PLC and programming and repair of robots and robotic welding, handling and sealing systems used in automotive assembly. When I need something done I read a book and do it. A little rough at welding though. But given enough heat, wire and time I can make metal stick together. Not pretty, but nothing that a grinder cant fix!:D Laced my own wheels for my chopper by reading two paragraphs in the manual and just doing it. Knowledge is power....library cards are free.....there are NO excuses!

I'm with you Scott. I like to read and jump right in. Worst case I pay someone to finish where I left off. I manage a quality control and R and D lab.

I do everything I can myself on my cars. Sometimes I enlist the help of one of my teenaged sons for holding things or whatever. I've got some knuckle-busting friends I can call when I need help, and of course, I have you all. I do have a really great mechanic for the new cars, and he's hoping he gets to build a 413 when I find the right one.

In a nutshell, yes, I do.

I am the business/consumer relations manager at SMRE Performance. I don't have a fancy Mopar yet, the one in my avatar is the "house car". I drive a PT Cruiser, but that doesn't count. Maybe someday, I will have time and $$ at the same time.

about 80% of the engines we do are supercharged with a ProCharger. We do a few turbos, a couple other blowers, plenty of N/A and a couple NOS deals.

Here's some of what we do: http://www.youtube.com/kat12979
