[QUOTE="frank123, post: 4629, member: 649"] I'd say get the machine and get some hours in it to get comfortable enough that you can charge for your time. What do you LIKE to do? Rough work moving lots of material ? Finish / detail oriented work? Figure that out and set up accordingly. Maybe start out with a few small projects for people you know and do good work. In my experience, if you do good work and charge a fair price, the rest will take care of itself. I have never even so much as put an ad in the yellow pages and have turned down work consistently because I've been too busy. Referrals should be the source of almost all of your work. Once you have the machine, I think you'll be surprised how people come out of the woodwork looking for help. Also, you'll probably find yourself doing a lot of things you never dreamed of in the beginning, as customers will pull you in all sorts of directions. Then you can start acquiring more attatchments, etc, which to me is half the fun! More toys is a good thing. Good Luck Frank [/QUOTE]
