I have asked a ton of questions as I am new to all this too and have never found a more friendly and knowledgeable group than this. I have got lots of help from all over the country and now have 2 new (vintage) machines in working order thanks to these guys. Welcome aboard!
Title: Re: Newbie with stupid questions needs help Post by: RC kid on November 26, 2009, 05:27:08 pm Keep posting questions! I am the guy in the back of the classroom listening and learning as the teacher answers each and every question, stupid or not. And of course, there are no stupid questions.
So please, Keep asking Questions? Title: Re: Newbie with stupid questions needs help Post by: Kilroy on November 27, 2009, 08:52:51 am I've been on the boards for years, and still learning something new everyday
