I go to the Army craft shop whenever I can with my Dad (retired Army) to work on our vehicles. They charge something rediculous like $4 per hour or something. Snap-on tools, about 20 bays and roughly 16 lifts. Air tools, the works. My Dad goes there just to change his oil and rotate the tires. They have guys staffed there that know everything about every car, which helps when doing tough jobs.
I heard on CarTalk one time that they tried opening a DIY shop like that but they didn't make any money on it. If you can swing it, more power too ya. I'd frequent the place... |
All this stuff should have been mandatory in high school. The girls take home-ec....and the guys should take the metal shop and auto classes. Everybody should have to take a "survival class".....one that shows you how to write a check, a will, divorce papers, how to sell a home "for sale by owner", credit card responsibility, etc etc.

sounds like a heck of an idea as long as u consider people breaking your stuff and breaking them selves. i could use something exactly like that right now my engine just died and i need to rebuild or replace.

Well I ended up not buying the property that had the shop on it. But I'm still keeping the idea in mind.

How many of you would be interested in something like this. Even if you don't live here, I'm trying to get an idea on how many people would use this. If you would, what do you think would be a fair hourly rate that you'd be willing to pay? Thanks for the market reseach help! Gibby |
