Hey all! There is a blast from the past feel re-reading this for me, I like this guy I used to be. I was a little closer to college days in my writin'.
My Intl-GJ is running like a champ! even on the $200/ton stuff.
I need a top door for this thing, maybe an original even? Anyone? A set of covers would be great too. Hope all are well and thanks for all the advice. This forum has helped me immensely over the years. I might even like to buy a whole unit. I am tearing it down big time this Spring to add a zone and redo the bin with room to expand.
