Way to go girl!
 I have bought from Harbor freight and have had good success.I wouldn't 
recommend their stuff for production work but I think it is fine for the 
hobbiest.I have the blast cabinet and the parts washer.The blast cabinet had to 
have the seams sealed to keep down the dust but is otherwise okay.

  Well I got the final Bus that I was seeking and now with 4 I feel I have more 
than my fair share, in fact I'm under the delusion that I have the mostest 
beautifulest driveway full of Buses ever.  His name is Wieder (pronounced as 
Vee-der) the German word for again and in honor of one of my most favorite 
songs ever, Immer Wieder (which translates to again and again or continually) 
by Harmonia (an obscure Krautrock band) more recently covered by The Secret 
Machines.  

  While Wieder was missing a guy was "fixing" him up and as far as I'm 
concerned he only did damage that will take many hours to make right.  His roof 
rack is gone (but I know who has it).  His bad ass grey interior has been 
painted a sissy Caribbean blue.  Bodywork was started so metal was exposed and 
is now rusty...  But he's still gorgeous in my opinion and he was the perfect 
price.  And like Mike's amazing acquisition, he has skylights added but for 
whatever reason there a three of them and a small sunroof over the front seats. 
  

  Now I need tools like a parts washer, a blast cabinet, a compressor, a 
welder!  Harbor Freight has some good prices but is anything worth buying there?

  Julie
