Another New DIY'er


Hey Guys,

I’ve been lurking for a few months now and this is a great site. I’ve picked up a lot of good info. (Sorry, I can’t remember how I got here, probably from a Google search) I’ve been a home remodeling addict since a teen. Never been afraid to tackle almost any job. Soon, I hope to retire from the hated 9 to 5 and start a painting/handyman business. I think I do pretty nice work and I’m conscientious and reliable. I’ve never been under the gun for a paycheck doing that kind of work so I’m sure I have a lot to learn. My dream is to work 4 /fish 3
Looking forward to being here,

Dave (South Jersey)

Re: Another New DIY'er


Thanks for the welcome guys. Over time I hope to reverse the fish/work ratio. Thankfully I can get through the winter by going to fishing shows, boat shows, BassPro and Cabelas You southern guys have it made (sorry Florcraft). Teetorbuilt, I'm not on any similar sites but I've been browsing this one every day. Again, very interesting due to the wealth of knowledge you guys bring here.

Dave
