I know the club has a Coral CoOp but has anything like a DIY CoOp been considered? While I have plenty of tools, but I hate the idea of buying a "Single" use tool. For instance, I need a glass hole saw so I can drill the back of my tank, but paying that much for a bit that I will only use to drill 4 holes just really bugs me.
On one of the car sites that I hang out on they have a work day where someone opens up their garage and guys drive over to work on their cars together. If someone has done something a time or two they may do it for someone who has no experience with it. Anyhow, I would be willing to host a work day up here in Frisco. I have a table saw, miter saw, circular saw, a small drill bench, router table (and a plunge base), and a slew of hand tools. I have built stands and can wire lights too. What I have never done is drill holes in the back of a tank. I have a small diamond bit which I have used on ceramic tile but nothing in the range of a 1.5" holes in glass.
So, even if there is no one with a glass hole saw I could use, I would still be willing to host a work party if someone needs to work on building a stand or some plumbing. I love hanging out in the garage and talking with others that love the same.
