Edit: what's the story with SLC Fabrication as well? Do you run a side business or is it just for fun?

The SLC Fab is my personal dream of working for myself, its not even a registered number or anything but i was laid off in January and needed to get some cash rolling in. I was making some simple parts for guys racing at Castrol raceway here in Edmonton and I was trying to get it to take off but it just wasn't there, I produced several sets of velocity stacks but there is a few guys doing the same thing at the time and it was only word of mouth.
