Nice site! I like how you added photos of all your individual pieces of equipment. That helps beginners a lot.

When I think "cheapskate" I think $200 not $2000 . But nice site. I always like to see people who are doing more with less.

I hope you brought your credit card with you, and I hope you know how to
Drive on these long, lonely freeways and intersections we've got up
Here. We've got two cars in the garage, and
Drum-majorettes in white ankle socks and baton twirling on Sundays.
We've got stripes and the stars and Uncle Sam's on Mars....
