You guys are more valuable than you think.
Dave,
We all know first hand racers are more far more driven. creative & have far more ambition than the average employee out there dragging thru the day could ever imagine.
I have been at Modern Mold Corporation for almost 2 years as I was trying to get away from the politics that seem to be the norm at larger companies anymore as work starigh up was never an issue for me. This is a smaller shop with a dozen people with nice machinery like OKK cnc's & Charmies for wires & sinkers. They are more into complex tooling with high engineering time rather than your basic molds or dies. I keep you in mind for any machinery they mention but know they have another OKK eyed up.
Now for my home garage wish list ....could use a tig welder,40-20,....no wait, dream list as we still need to get cars in. Always wanted to started a business making custom mx stuff but never took the dive. I had a friend in 1992 try to get me to go in business with him & some 20 years later wonder what if.
Guess at 49 it is pretty late in life as we are talking about trying to retire early as in the next few years as the kids are about all grown & we are becoming empty nesters so why keep going thru the daily grind. Real dream would be to have something like Maico's Only, AMS or Rage Racing as I do enjoy the vintage stuff.
Later,
Maico Mark
