anytime! I love fixing bikes, it is a lot of fun for me. I wish there was more money in it, but I have thought about putting an ad in craigslist come late winter, offer good prices on tune up/overhauls. Shops charge $150 here for an overhaul, I could charge $80 and still make money off it. By make money, I mean buy some more and better quality tools

Again, good of you to help a friend out. I built a bike up for my brother using a new frame he paid for and a whole parts group off a bike I had the frame crack on. Told him if he bought the frame and chain I would give him all the parts...he ended up giving me $50 extra so I gave him the better condition wheelset I had. He now has a bike he would have had to pay $400+ for in a bike shop, for only $200 And I made some room in our basement...
