no, not really, just take advantage of the in person visit and have them take you around and explain all the different scales they have, they have a lot of useful information to listen to that you don't get over the phone or on the web.

... or he could have been saying "engineers tend to believe they know everything when really they could benefit from simply listening to the guy behind the counter."

I'm one of those rare engineers that listens to the folks out in the shop. I respect them, they respect me.

I have what you are saving up for.

To me it's sense less to use them once a year and then let them set until the next time. I'm planning on letting people borrow them, so give me a few weeks to build some ramps and then they will be up for others to use if you are interested.
