Newbie from Allen Park Mi

Post by arccommander »

Hi to all!!

Well I guess Ill start out with alittle about myself. My name is Anton Wagensomer. Im 33. I have been married for 12 yrs. I have 3 kids. 2 girls and 1 boy. My son loves R2-D2. I live in Allen Park Mi and have for 6yrs now. I left my job with Johnson Controls in 06 where I was a production supervisor for self employment.

I joined the ct.net forum about a week ago and those guys have been great. Rip Code is how I found out about the midwest garrison. Ive been doing a lot of research and reading a lot. Trying not to ask to many questions.. :) But for the most part u dont need to. a lot of threads give you a lot of info. I havent had the money as of late ( self employement is a little tough right now) to start but things might be changing soon

Well my situation is this: My wife insists that I sell my boat. I dont really want to. So I thought...well I think I should get something out of this. So I made the deal that when it sells I want to start on my armor. Surpisingly enough she agreed. Sooooo Im putting it up on ebay (im a big ebayer) and hope to sell it quick.

So what I hope is that in the next couple weeks to be able to start. I would like to get into vacuforming. Ive spent a lot of time building RC planes and modeling. I also do remodleing and constuction (back to the self employed part) so I dont think it will be to hard. Ive foung a lot of helpful info so far.

Well enough of me boring u. I look forward to being able to troop soon. :D

Thanks, Anton

Anton,

If you need help with your clone armor there are several clones in the MWG! :D

You can do that if you wish... however it would be cheaper and quicker to buy a clone armor kit.

If you need info on that send me a PM here or on CT.Net.

Welcome!

As a wife, I would wholeheartedly agree to armor over a boat. Hmm...Maybe I should try that deal so I can get rid of the hubby's snowmobile. :lol:
