Retire at 42? That'd be a weird experience.

I haven't jigged anything, I am flying by the seat of my pants here. It'll probably just be another bespoke project for myself.

How much longer until that sweet pension is staring you in the face? Just under 4 years here.
 
We'll see how it goes. Maybe I'll build a jig and churn out some $2000 exhaust systems to HC owners who love hemorrhaging money on the next cool-guy part.
You already said it. Gotta make hay while the sun is shining. If you expand operations enough, you can get one of those orbital welders.

9 long years. I'll be O-5 qualified in 6 weeks, and fully promotable (is that a word?). And I still have until 2038 before I "time out". Not sure how far I want to take this... or how far it will drag me kicking and screaming against my will.

If I don't hate my life in a few years I'm more than game to keep playing. I don't hate my life now one bit, just keeping an open mind is all.

Why do people keep throwing my words back in my face? Don't you know that even I don't know WTF I am saying half the time... and the other 60% is just me making things up?

That is a cool process, looks a lot like cold welding... robot style.

Mystery aluminum tube welded to what I think is 6061 sheet with a 5356 rod. If it works, it works. Some consistent dime stacking will come with time... or not.
