RUTAN TA1647545492 Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 I have been discussing opening my own shop and here recently I have had one thrown at me.

TimTaylor751647545500 Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 If you have the resources available and feel that you could do well, sounds like you have a customer base already. Why not go for it? I'd rather work for myself too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
