Welding fabrication, Automotive and Truck mechanical repairs. small plumbing and electrical work

Having been an owner/operator I had to learn to do as many of my own repairs as possible. Also being a homeowner I have had to learn to do my own repairs around the house. Anything I don't know how to fix, I consult experts to learn how to fix it. I have also worked in fabrication shops so I can use that knowledge to build or repair things I need.
