    Red Dyed Diesel

    Honestly…i used to wire up service stations and fuel depots. The red dyed and the regular diesel come out of same tank. They have an inline tank and pump to add the dye as its used. Im sure some older stations may have separate buried red diesel tanks, but unsure about this. Service stations...

    Thinking of getting a Plasma cutter

    I just have no interest in ever purchasing a Chinese made plasma, or much less any Chinese made thing, unless it isnt made In the good old USA. Mind you i know alot of stuff just plain isnt made here. Not much else ya can do then.

    Value of Horse Saddles?

    Ya, saddles are a crapshoot. The saddle i had for years fit my QH perfectly, but was rubbing my fjords back. I had to purchase a new one , custom fitted to horse.

    Pros and Cons of allowing Cell Tower on Property?

I was one of only 2 journeyman electricians he had, and state required ratio of 1 journeyman for every three apprentices at the time. He would get fined for not having a journeyman on site.
