The business that was in the building before my neighbor was a furniture restoration shop. 100+ gallon vat of chemical for stripping wood, sawdust covered everything and old furniture stacked 10' high. In business for 10 years and a fire mashal never even came by. My neighbor has no chemicals...

Small auto repair shop. Same thing I do but I'm not a business.

The building is located in Conroe Texas, Montgomery County. Currently most of the nation uses the IBC for building code. This building was built long before the IBC standard was used. I called the fire marshal's office about grandfathering. They said that they don't use that word and nothing...

I bought a 1986 model Bear engine analyzer fer cheap thinking I could have it updated for my 93 Nissan. Wrong! A couple year newer model would have worked. But it was cheap enough that I won't loose my *** on it. So that experience is still fresh and I don't wan't to have something noone will...
