[QUOTE="Firewalker, post: 8672075, member: 676743"] I got lucky with my dad, he was a machinist for Mobil Oil for close to 30 years & was also their jet engine mechanic as they had a jet engine they used for their electrical power in Elwood, IL. He was also into boating, snowmobiling, quads, dirt bikes, drag racing basically anything with an engine along with all the electronics and computers. He taught me to build my own computer at 10 in the mid '80s from the ground up with all the soldering and what not. That and he was an addict with house electronics, we even had a 12 foot Wineguard Satellite Dish in our back yard with access to 50 some satellites it was freaking awesome. In the long run it ended up costing me several expensive addictions, especially drag racing when I was into that on a weekly basis at Chicagoland Speedway in Joliet, IL. Cost me money but without him I would have been spending thousands more paying a shop. Most kids were out playing at 8 years old, I was in the garage rebuilding engines, lol. [/QUOTE]
