    Cool Howdy Peeps!

    Hello everyone!



    My name is Dave, I live in on a 80 acre farm in the Ozark Mountains in North West Arkansas. I currently work from my home office creating animation ready, 3D content. Before that I raised chickens commercially for Tyson Foods.

    I don't think I'm a 'scrapper' but I kind of had this fall in my lap. ( the reason I found this forum, I'll start a separate thread) I am a big DIY'er. I'm all the time re-purposing 'junk' into new useful things; two of the most prominent being my 'salvaged' aquaponic greenhouse, and the jewelry I make with my wife.

    After reviewing some of the info on this board, there seems to be a lot of knowledgeable folks here! I look forward to getting to know you while I proceed into my upcoming endeavor.

    Thanks, Dave

    Hi Dave, I'm not officially the welcoming committee here, but it'll be nice to hear/see your projects unveil. I DIY alot myself; being a farmer for the past 45 years. Currently on a binge to make junked air compressors work. Don't know why I need 15 of them but after giving 3 away, that's what I ended up with. I just can't let 'em go to the scrap yard. I even drag em off the pile at the yard and bring 'em home. Such a waste..!!

    Hey welcome. Use to live at grand lake and owned Joplin magazine, Ozark Gateway News and the Table rock lakr and grand lake maps. It is beautiful country. Wish I could still live there. Treasure hunting (scrapping) is a whole lot more fun then any of the above. Take some time and read the archives you will be amazed at what you will find.

    Hey! That's not far off from here though I haven't been up that way in many years. I'm actually about 20minutes south of Branson , MO.
