I started my adult professional life as an Aircraft Mechanic in the Marine Corps. I transitioned to Civilian life doing the same. about 10 years ago, I suffered an injury that prevents me from continuing that so now I take care of the books at a medium sized Mortgage Company.

Post Re: FG Handy Man Help Thread!

Mechanical Engineer here. Vice President of a major Safe Manufacturing company, 18 years invested. Grew up in a shop, got my ass kicked many times by Dad for taking his machines apart when I was little. All types of welding, woodworking, metalworking, molding, both design and production. By the time I was out of high school, I had more shop experience than most jorneyman. 5 Patents now on the wall, more coming. Love design work to solve challenging and/or complex problems. Anal perfectionist, if it ain't perfect, I'm not done yet. I know the Safe business inside-out. I teach locksmiths how to open high-security safes. Design electronic and electomechanical locks.. Leaving for my 6th trip to China next week. That's not fun any more...

If you need help with a Safe... tough sh!t LOL

Just kidding... but I'll have to kill you after I help you...

Hey dudes! Just wanted to pop in and remind everyone that I have years in HVAC. Now that the heaters are in full swing, drop me a line in this thread if I can help. Just an FG way of helping a brother out!

This thread has already saved me enough to buy a new motor! Thanks everyone for lending an experienced hand!
