How tight am I ????
 Well no paper towels here . 
I use old bed sheets for rags first on engines when running then when grubby use then for engineering.
I am guilty 0f using reduced voltage .
Constantly scan TM for started and butchered castings ( to cheap to buy new and no challange )
Buy brass off TM clearance lots that might be useful ?? ( yeah right ) 
Recently got 4 X 2 meter lengths of LG2 leaded bronze  1 1/2 inch OD by 3/4 inch ID 

Buy crappy broken engine to rebuild .

Cheers
