new as well

Hi all, i posted a little about my self in the body section but heres a  better introduction
 My Name is Shane, i am a industrial electrician by trade, but i have been custom painting for over 39 years, i did my first complete paint job at the ripe old age of 9, my dad was a custom painter and i kinda grew up in the industry, i have taught custom painting in the clinic form several times and now i am into the airbrush side of the industry as well. I live in a town called Sandy, in the state of Oregon, don't get the wrong idea tho cause i am about as far from a tree hugger as you can get, we are moving out of this state to mooresville north Carolina as soon as my youngest son gets outa high school, my oldest son is a pit crewman for Steven Wallace in the nascar nation wide series and live in the NC now.
 If at any time any one wants any paint questions answered be sure and hit me up, if it has been done, good or bad, i have either done it or seen it done :hick: If you all want to see some of my air brush work feel free to check out my profile at learnairbrush.com. i am a charter member there and that's probably the spot where i spend most of my on air time (up tell now) but now that i have found this place i will start hangen out here more!
 My youngest son and I are rebuilding/restoring/hot rodding his 1986 turbo coupe that my mother in-law bought new and has now given it to him, its quite a project so i hope to keep you all up to date as to our progress ;)
