Big congrats to you Iowaboy. Like you I took the same leap 3 years ago and went to work for myself ( my worst boss ever ) with your work ethic, knowledge, and willingness to help others you will do great I’m sure. It will not take long and the people in your community will know you are the person to come to for all their mechanical needs. Just be sure not to overwork yourself and take some time for yourself once in awhile.
