Hi Jeff! Have you ever painted an airplane? It ain't easy - even a little airplane, and it is hazardous. Don't know a lot about making windshields, have tried but they came out awful. I'll bet there are relatively few people who even CAN do that, and approximately none on this list. So painting airplanes is difficult and dangerous, and making windshields is a rare skill? These kinds of work usually require the worker to make a personal investment in education and equipment as well. -- Regards, Pete http://www.pete-theisen.com/ _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
