Going to order a chrome plating machine to incorporate some of my ideas and a small film tank........with upholstery and a few tricks of the trade I have learned and or developed I do believe June I can do almost anything  :)
Thank you all for your wisdom and now if I can find my hinny with both hands I just may start earlier than fall in my shop.

My son has a 73 muscle car in the shop with his Caddy and as soon as we get his Caddy going will free up some space for said machines.

Hey ya.....

I have been throwing around a few ideas about auto upholstery and marine!!

I have in mind a whole new out look on the two.......but I feel marine has no options like auto. SooOOOoooOOoo I have been thinking about boat interiors to a whole new level.
I understand that Okla. and Florida are to different beast, however the customers are the same to a certain point!!!
To sculpt a Dash in a  Car is one thing but A Boat is another...
I am working on Dashes that any one person can say they have helped to develope and designed there boat interior.
Here in Oklahoma all like toOoo brag about there cost and who did the interior...

So I am thinking that to have them help design and I put out for them what they want may be the key to just getting jiggy with it!!!!

I have the need to be creative but only to what the customers really wants..what do you think all????

I can still create and let customers have say in what they like.....

They all  love to Bragggggggg!!! They just want  to be different and say (((you dont have this....)))) that's were I fit in!!!!

Karen....

.life is short so Have a Beer and just kick back!!!! You all taught me well!!! lol
