The barter system. Sometimes it can be a beautiful thing.
Since our member base is increasing, I have noticed more tech questions and people seeking advice. As for myself I rather enjoy helping out. I had a perfect world idea that members can offer their services in exchange for things they need help with.
I have called on a few members for everything from computer help to hard to find music. One of my best specialties is building subwoofers. I have killer hardware and software to build boxes to an EXACT science. I take a subwoofer and plug it in to my PC. I then decide what the size limitations might be, what kind of bass (super deep home theater style, big boom, tight and punchy etc etc), how big the car is, how I want to mount the speakers (some people like the mounted magnet out), and then the computer spits out EXACTLY what that particular speaker needs. Every speaker is different, even 2 of the same brand and size.
But here is the kicker. Making curtains for my coach baffles me. I am sure that someone on here thinks " hell thats easy!" I know 1 member is an electronics wizard who made their own digital dash cluster. I know another who is an awesome metal fabricator.
Is anyone hip to where I am going with this?
