    It'd wouldn't be a proper hello with out showing what I'm working on currently.

    I recently moved to the Portland area from Columbus, OH. I was given the opportunity to start up another shop out here. So far, this is what I have set up. Suggestions welcome. Tomorrow I will be making two grit guard buckets, and a pad washing system. I'm also thinking of making an injection system for presoaking cars, more on that later.
