    hard time getting bids

    telling a contractor it is going to be a while, he hears two things: 1. you don't have the money for the project 2. you might never get to the point of actually building something and this is a waste of his time. Also, since he is a friend/family, they probably know more about you than their...

    Above 1200 Sq/FT Bald is Beautiful - 7k sq feet+ of Gruntledness

    Sell the Mayteg and keep the 7. You can drive it for a couple of years and still get a good price for it if you choose to sell due to very low mileage.

    Small repeat mistakes indicative of a career change? Need advice...

    A lot of times we are told "You can do it if you put your mind to it" or "You can be whom ever you chose to be".

    Can I use A Twin Post Lift To Unload A Trailer?

    we use our lift to unload all sorts of equipment. That is what a lift is designed for, to lift things. As long as you center the weight between posts, you'll be fine. Take some pics, they're always fun to look at.
