Pipeliner

I have been a mechanic all my life starting at the age of 10 since my dad had us help rebuild our cars and everything else we had. I am #5 of 12 kids from the same mother not abdopted. My dad was a feild engineer for International Harvester and insisted on us knowin how to fix things as we could not afford to have someone do it for us. I enjoy my work and enjoy helping others as that was taught us by my Mom. I have alot of family members who are or have been in the military branches. I COULD NOT serve as I have a muscler defect that kept me from serving. It has not kept me from doing what I like to do though. I ahve helped build Helicopters and Airplanes, worked on Locomotives, Oil rigs, Logging equipment,Pipelines, and quarry equipment. I have worked for companies while having my own Business with 7 mechanics working for me. The pipelines use Military trucks for mountain work and having the knowledge of them I get to work on them. I do not know everything , but strive to find out everything I can. My parents told us that you can do anything you want if you put your mind to it. I have also run milling and lathes making parts.
