Default Thanks

Thanks for all the welcome posts. Iexpect work will slow some after the first of the year. I'm a Tool and Die Maker,and several customers are hot for some dies for new products. Looks like the economy is finally picking up.I'm not originally from the south,but enjoy the more hospitable climate here during the winter. The wife and I are originally from the lake Erie snow belt of NY. Thanks againfor all the welcomes.
