    I'm MeanGene from North Central Florida

    Hello to all, I'm a scrapper by way of needing something to do. I always liked to take apart things to see how they work and then decided to see what the price was for that item and now on Disability I can still do some at my own pace and enjoy life once again.

    I found scraping to be rehab for my disabilities. Exercising physically and mentally through my scraping activities has been a great help for me. Although I did already have a background in electronics, aircraft maintenance and sales before starting scraping, scraping led me to computer testing, troubleshooting, repair of computers.

    The short cut to knowledge and profitability is in the old threads, read read read. 73, Mike

    Now go beat the copper out of something, Miked
