    You are fortunate to begin the process with an experienced mentor/enabler.

    Have fun and ask lots of questions. You will get answers here fairly quickly.

    Welcome to SRP.
    Roy got me started too. He is a good guy and a great mentor. Just listen to what he has to say. I hope to meet Roy face to face some day. I think I owe him a beer or something. Maybe a few diners too.

    Just go slow and be sure to have a properly honed razor to learn with. Roy with straighten you out when things go wrong but ask all the questions you want here. We are all happy to help.

    Welcome. Read in the library and ask questions. Take your time and go slow. It takes time to get it right but it's worth it in the end. Check B-S-T there are some good buys and honest members selling.
