Guess I have to change my screen name. I don't think I can do that without starting all over with post one? Is that right?

Hi Jim,

Hope you are well!!

An Admin and/or Mod can help you with that... or get you to someone that can.

All the best,

Dave

Thanks Dave, I'm getting things in order. I'll chime back in as soon as the dust settles.
You guys all be tough as I will. I think it was just time for me to move on. EuroWerks is doing fine all the old guys are still there and service will go on as usuall. You guys just promise me if I have to start over with a newbie post, you'll all be nice.

Some one took my picture today with a camera phone. I've been getting my tools ready. The shop is nice and the people are too. I sent an e-mail to Randy V. as soon as we can, I'll either start over with post one, or have a new screen name.

I use PMs - hardly check that email account.

That said, send a PM to Bob R and he will change your screen name.

Bob is out this week but will get to you upon his return.

Good luck with everything Jim. Came in about a month ago to meet you and ask a few questions at Eurowerks. I had my little daughter with me and rambled on so much I think I forgot to mention my name.
I was going over questions on my euro hybrid project (and shooting the breeze) and I have been meaning to ask you for verification on the machine shop you suggested that would be a good one to use for getting the piston reliefs cut and any other work done. Sorry, I was just excited to meet a 928 legend and just remember female engineers in regards to the shop you suggested.

Anyway, stay cool in the heat these days.

Message sent to change screen name. Guys, I can be found at Hendrick Porsche in Charlotte. I've been here for around a week and a half now. Things are working out well. I really look forward to being back out in the shop.
This is the same shop that I left years ago to start my own shop. Best Job I ever quit!
