    Hello from NW Washington

    Hi everyone, this is long overdue (I thought I did already, but that proves I may be going senial early..) but I'm here to introduce myself. My name is Mike, and I'm from Anacortes, Washington. About 1.5 hours north of Seattle, also known as the gateway to the San Juan Islands. We have a lot of artsy fartsy craftsmen/craftwomen locally, as well as refineries, ship building, an open port, and what seems like countless very skilled people/hobbyists ranging from woodworkers, master blacksmiths, custom machinery, home of The BMW Oracle race catamaran, aviation, etc. The people I continue to meet in this town never cease to amaze me. I myself am a Paintless Dent Repair tech, and own/operate my little business, which has much higher demand than anticipated a few years ago when I started up. I am a complete tool nut. I change directions a lot, and start a lot of projects that end up taking many different directions before they're finished. Most of them being to build tools for my business, because the dent repair tool industry is a bit of a niche market, and you simply cant buy a tool that does everything. So a lot of my tools are either built or bought for dent repair, or being built to assist in the building of dent repair tools. That includes custom grinders, forge, machine shop, anything for fabricating or carpentry, and automotive work, all crammed into a 22'x26' shop (ok it's a detached garage..) but it's my shop Anywho, enough yappin! Time to get something done. I will share some of my work soon, but I wanted to say hello.. So Hello! -Mike
