Two years ago I bought every Derby Works tool there is, we won pack the end. Last year I discovered this site and thought it may be just a site for pushing DD4H products. Nope, I quickly learned how much I did not know! I wasted a lot of money on bad tools. The more I read here the more I wanted to compete. It was hard to convince my wife to let me spend money on D.W tools, and because we won pack she thought they were just fine. "Honey, I need a silver bullet, a how to DVD, a polishing kit, some lathed wheels, a microscope, a tuning board, a dremil, thank goodness I already have a wood shop. And don't forget I need a 42 ft best track and a timer." Uh.......... So It was hard to convince her, and I had no way to plead my case. So at the same time I was working on a truck project. I was fixing up an old f 150 pick up. Every time I turned around we were leaking money. Then I got to looking at street racing. There was this show on t.v about these guys from Oklahoma, they built street racers. Dang, those guys spent a tone of money. So, I asked my wife to watch the show with me. Every time I see a car show advertised I ask my wife if I could buy a classic and restore it for a car show. Lets just say she is begging me to stick with pine wood. The pine wood rabbit hole goes deep. I'm getting ready to buy some razor wheels and berings, still a whole lot cheaper than the alternative! I love you honey. She brought me home a couple model car kits so I could start my first street rod build.
