Billy
Welcome. I too am a Texas newbie. Since you must buy more tools, you
need to go the the First Monday Sales in Canton. Weatherford has a small
but sometimes very fruitful First Monday Sale. I wish I were closer so I
could go more often. You are also lucky to have some very knowledgeable
galoots in the Dallas/ Ft. Worth area.

followed me home on their own."
