Thanks for the link, will look into it for sure. I think the worst thing about lack of work is getting behind on all the bills, and playing catch up. There is never enough money to go around. We have always done the multi million dollar homes, and when the economy went down, the rich stopped spending

Hey Doug lots of work happening down here in the Lethbridge area. I know of 3 or 4 major condo going up and are anywhere from beginning to finishing stages. Also a big Seniors home being put up here in Taber. All the more reason for you to start the RC here in Lethbridge.

Either way I wish you the best and hope you come back if you do have to sell. Maybe get out those cutters and some of us can help you out by taking frags off your hands.

I hear and feel your pain Doug. I own my own welding company and it is so slow right now that I am stressed to the point that I have been sick. And have to thought about selling ALL my tanks but just can't bring myself to do it. For me it would be nice to have a bunch of tank stands to do just to keep my mind off everything until things come back to life. If there is anything that you think I could do to help you out don't hessitate to get ahold of me. I know that we have only meet once but I am a great judge of character and you are top notch in my books. Good Luck Doug, thing are bound to get better for ALL of us. ( i hope )

Chase31 nice try - I know you where kidding but sorry no freebee's my wife would kick my a** and so would the accountant, lol . It would be nice to have some where to show my stand design's but then I would have to know what people are looking for and build at my own cost then hope they sell.

But with that said hold steady and strong Doug I would hate to have you regret selling if you don't have to, something is bound to change. As the Goverment stated the recession is over, load of crap, why is there so many people have so much trouble getting back on there feet if it is over. Sorry but I had to vent.

Yes, this hobby will sure make my retirement plan just a little bit longer :-). If things don't go well, I will convert to FOWLR tank to save money and works.

Sorry to hear about you and the gf... However if it wasn't meant to be, move on. Your happiness must come first and foremost.

This recession has hit everyone, as a business owner myself, I can state that I have seen the ups and downs. And my guess is that we are in this for another couple years. Don't listen to politicians saying we are out of it, yeah right!!!! Tell that to my phone that isn't ringing as much as it use to.

Anyways glad to see that you are going to hold onto things if you can. And remember we talked about you building a nice framework for my metal stand. I am still interested, let me know when you have the time to discuss.

And to all a good day!
