The one question I do get asked allot is if I have plans for the equipment I have built?  The answer right now is no.. I don’t have plans because I build stuff on the fly :)   Not the best way but it works for me.  I am going to try to get plans together soon.  It is a big job and I need to get motivated to do it..

stay tuned for more..
