Hello from Wisconsin

[Beau_Skee]

I've been on a mission to grow my own tool collection now that I'm out of reach of my father's 40+ years accumulation. I took a fabulous job offer in the Northwoods of Wisconsin and had to leave my cushy tooled out spot in my father's shop.
I've often Googled my snap on specific number and have seen this forum pop up enough times that I finally decided to click on it and here I am! I paged through the classified and zeroed in on a few items I'm itching to pick up but alas, I must wait until I'm approved to post in order to work out any transactions.

Besides the tools I'm looking forward to the other topics I saw before making it to the classifieds, I'm glad to be aboard!

I'm loving it already, there's so much more to the site than I thought. Going to spread the word on this to my friends forsure!
Glad to be up in Minocqua too, but I'm itching for the warm weather now. I'm sick of washing the salt of the trucks!

If ya don't mind me asking where did you move from? You will love the Minocqua area in the summer. What type of work are you in? Way back in the day I owned a Beau Skee, I think it was a race sled 292 2cyl Hirth engine, little tiny thing, only rode it a few times before I blew the track off and that was pretty much it.

Moved up from Milwaukee. Working for Rynders Companies, mainly focused on landscape design/installation and and Mechanic work that's needed throughout the year.
Beau Skee has been a long time nickname, not sure where it started from.
I don't know if I'll get used to how cold it gets up here haha

Haha yes, you will lose about 6 weeks of nice weather, 3 in spring and 3 in fall.
