    Welcome to the forum from the Dakota's. Where to start: From this perspective, fix your favorite beverage and snacks. Find the most comfortable chair or position in your home , plug in the computer, and go to the bathroom (you will be in this position for an extended amount of time). Next in the right hand corner of the home page you will find a search button. Most luck has been obtained with the advanced search. Type in your topics of interests and read previous posts. At the bottom of each thread is a link to other similar threads.

    As you read the old threads you will get insight to the experience of others, the many personalities on the forum, and the culture. After you have done your homework you can start asking questions. When asking questions you might want to reference previous threads, like I noticed Sirscrapalot spends so much time with his cooler and does this mean aluminum prices will be spiking in the future or that he is bragging about his love affair? Since Sledge plans to recycle his steel toed boots, does that mean it is time to collect steel toe boots?

    After several posts you will be able to use the private message function and be able to ask members specific questions to their threads. Regardless we love stories, pictures, and personal challenges. Good luck to you.

    Or do the first part of the suggestion above (esp. the beverage) but from there look thru the different sections and find one you really like and go back to the beginning and read up to now.
    Just remember you will see prices posted here that are old and out of date, call your favorite yard for current prices.
