Doing things backwards?!?

If you want it done right, either do it yourself, or watch it being done. One thing is, if you do it yourself, then don't like the way it turned out, there are two main advantages: You didn't pay to have it done, and if you want to kick the rear end of the guy who done it, he's right handy.

I hope you gave the guy a healthy quote for the extra chore of protecting his new shiny paint. Around here we call it stupid tax.

Agreed. I always say painted cars are just hiding there past!!!!

Some of us will remember Thunder1 who coined the phrase
"shiny paint is just the Devil's way of hiding the truth"

Well good riddance, it's gone!!!

My view was from under the dash most of the day. Changed the cluster out for him. New old one had a tach. Which didn't work right , neither did any of the other gauges,!!! So that was a waste!!! But it's gone for now!

Some of the projects other people drag in to us were really a relief to see go away.

Often the only tolerable outcome about the entire deal was that it provided cash for the things we wanted.

One of the better experiences of running a welding shop for 30 years was that 1st year after I retired. I took on a few simple projects that were fun for me, and declined doing the rest of them. It was sort of fun to tell some of those guys that I was retired and I wasn't going to do their job. Now 5 years after retirement, I tell everyone "No, I'm just doing my stuff now."
