It seems to me that the heft of the storm is headed out to sea for the most part. I would really enjoy a huge snow storm, but I would like to get the truck fixed before so I can go out and play in it!

Well the reason im looking forward to snow in CT is that my uncle plows commercial lots around south windsor and since this winter i can drive to him with a 4x4 truck i will be able to make some money plowing for him or removing snow with the bobcat.

Aaron, that came out really nice!

How did you get started powder coating?
What kind of media do you use to get it to really stick?
