Live from the Car Care Studios, it's the CNC Auto Show with your personal on-air and online automotive service advisors, Aaron Clements and John Ryan Mooney. So climb in, buckle up, and enjoy the ride on the CNC Auto Show. And we do welcome you to the CNC Auto Show.
And if you're looking for information on ways to make your car safe, dependable, and long lasting, and you want to have a little fun doing it, then don't even twitch an eyebrow because you are in the right place. I'm your host Aaron Clements and Michael Rivers of Bose Machine Shops here with us. He's riding with us today. And Michael, welcome back to the show. You were here during the first hour and you're back with us again. I'm glad to be here. We enjoyed you being here answering machine shop questions and helping to answer some of the car questions coming in. We appreciate that very much. And we mentioned before that if you do it yourself or if you have a professional automotive technician do it, one of the two is going to need a machine shop, a good machine shop if you do any type work at all. And that includes things like clutches, heads, and bearings pressed, and just a whole suit of things that we have done on a regular basis at Bose Machine Shop.
So that part works out well. Okay, we got a lot of callers on the line. We got a tech tip quiz laying on the table.
I'm going to read the tech tip quiz real quickly before we go to the callers just in case. Bill was driving down a straight road. There was no police on the side of the road or behind him, so he let his car unwind a bit. He got a ticket. He still got a ticket.
How did he get a ticket? And if you know the answer, give us a call. But we also have a great car care question. And John, welcome to the CNC Auto Show, and what can we help you with? First, thank you for taking my call.
Thank you for calling. I have a 2001 Nissan Frontier pickup truck that has a 3.3 liter V6 engine. It broke the timing belt. And my question is, did it bend the valves in the cylinder head when it broke the belt?
I'm gonna say it did. That single overhead cam? Yes, single overhead cam.
Yes. You know, there's all kinds of guides that say it's an interference engine, it's a non-interference engine, but I know I fixed a lot of those heads with bent valves. So, you know, the only way to know for sure is to slip a belt back on there. I don't know how much trouble it would be to do it and spin it over, maybe do a compression test, but I would put you up in the 75% chance of having bent valves. And John, there are books that you can go to, or you can actually, that information will probably be on YouTube also, if you look up that year model, and it'll say interference or non-interference. If it says non-interference, there's a chance that it didn't, because every now and then you run into one that did, even if it is an interference engine. But usually if it says interference engine, I would put it at about 95% that it did bend the valve.
And now, of course, what Michael mentioned is 100% correct. You got two things you can do in that. You can either put a timing belt on there, and really your compression check will be if it cranks. If it cranks and runs, you're good. And then you can pull that back off and do the water pump and all the other things that you would do, and do it tensioners and all that other.
Now, if you put the belt on and it don't, of course you know you got a problem. The next step, if you wanted to go to the next step, would be to pull the valve cover off and then pull the spark plugs out and then put air on the piston. And it's a cylinder leak down test. If it don't hold air, then you find out where it come from.
If the air is blowing out the exhaust pipe, you know it's an exhaust valve, it's coming out the intake, it's the intake valve. But that lets you know which valve's bent, but it really don't matter. No, the heads are going to come off.
Yeah, the results are the same. It's not an easy one to take off. Yeah. And from memory, unfortunately, I believe that one is classified as an interference engine.
Yeah, it's definitely an interference engine. Whether you just happen to be in the 5% to get lucky and not bend the valve or not is the question. But either way, it's not that bad of a repair to fix those heads.
So, you know, we can take care of it. But John said that that head don't just pop off by itself. No, no.
I'm sure that timing bell doesn't either. No, it's a good job. Yeah.
But John, good luck with it. I might as well take it. Oh, absolutely. Oh, yeah.
If you get it off. Would you agree? Absolutely. Absolutely. You know, I'd at least bring it by and have it checked over.
You know, you were just saying to yourself how big of a job it's going to be. The last thing you want to do is do it twice. Yeah. Okay. We appreciate the call.
Number to call is 706-863-5800. And we will go over to Zach. Zach, welcome to the CNC Auto Show. And what can we help you with? Yeah, I wanted to enter the tep-tep quiz. Oh, absolutely.
We need to put you on stage though. All right. Okay, Zach, I'm going to read the question. Bill was driving down a straight road. There were no police on the side of the road or behind him, so he let his car unwind. He still got a ticket. How did he get a ticket?
And Zach, all eyes are on you. What is the answer to today's tep-tep quiz? Okay.
I started listening late, but I'm thinking it was one of those street cameras that catches the license plate and they mailed him the ticket. Yeah. Zach, those don't seem right to me.
I don't know why, but – Sneaky. Yeah, yeah. I mean, every now and then you need some time by yourself.
You want a few minutes with somebody not looking at you. But Zach, I am so sorry. Oh, no. Oh, Zach. Wow, man.
You took that pretty rough. But Zach, we appreciate it very much. Thank you for the call. Thank you. Have a good one. You, too. Okay.
The number to call is 706-863-5800 if you have a question about your car, truck, or SUV. And we will now go to Louis. Louis, welcome to the CNC Auto Show. And what can we help you with?
I want to try to answer that tech question. Oh, Louis, you don't sound completely confident because you said try. Yeah, well, you know – I'm going to answer that – and you're on stage. Bill was driving down a straight road, no police in sight on the side of the road or behind him, so he let his car unwind, but he still got a ticket.
How did he still get a ticket? And Louis, everyone is looking at you to answer today's Tech Tip quiz. A lot of pressure on you, but what's the answer? I'm telling you. You're putting the pressure on me.
Yeah, it's pretty tough. I'm thinking you said there's no police on the side, no police in the back of him, so when he wanted that thing out, he could have ran up on a policeman in the front of him. In the front of him? I mean, how can – you're talking about the police coming toward him? No, he could have just ran up on one, behind one.
Well, Louis, you're getting a little bit close here. What if the police was coming from the opposite direction? Is that possible? Well, yeah, that's possible, too. Can they do that, though? How could he – Oh, yeah, they can check your speed. Louis, you're absolutely correct. The police was coming from the opposite direction, and yes, moving radar can clock other vehicles' speeds while the officer's vehicle is moving both going in the same direction or even in the opposing direction.
And these radar guns have second antennas that measures the patrol car's speed while their other antenna tracks the target vehicle. So slow your butt down because you're now an official Tech Tip with Quiz winner, and you have a reputation to uphold. Thank you very much.
And don't ask me how I know about the being able to get a ticket in the opposite direction. We won't talk about that. Okay. We appreciate it. Stay on the line.
He'll get all your information, and you will now be able to hold a – I answered the Tech Tip with Quiz coffee mug in your hand. All right. Appreciate it. You have a great day. Oh, you do the same. Okay, here we go.
Michael's here with me. We have more tips and road trips – more tips on this road trip. And we'd love to answer your automotive questions, so don't move.
Let's head back down to the Car Care Studio with Airman Clements and John Ryan Mooney. The CNC Auto Show is brought to you in part by AutoBatteries.com. Powered by Clarios, AutoBatteries.com features a wealth of information on vehicle batteries. From choosing your next battery with their car battery selector to installation and recycling. That's AutoBatteries.com. And Michael is riding with us, and you can call 800-224-9090 or 706-8635-800. That's Saturday mornings, 805 to 10 Eastern Time.
Or you can watch us live on Facebook or at ccautoshow.com. Either one will work. Michael, are you ready for us to go back to the phones? I'm ready. Okay.
Let's do it. I sure have enjoyed you being here. I see you a lot of times during the week. Well, I mean, I enjoy being here. You know, you called me, and I was stretched out, and I couldn't wrap my brain around it at first. And then, you know, the more I thought about it, you know, I've been looking forward to it all week.
I'm happy to be here. Well, usually when we're both working, you're going wide open. I'm going wide open, and all we can do is boom, boom, boom. Oh, sure. Say hello, but now we get a chance to talk a little bit, and I love that. Okay. We will go over and visit with Ron.
Ron, welcome to the CNC Autoshow, and what can we help with? Thank you, thank you. Aaron, has the Russians kidnapped John Ryan? They're asking a huge ransom.
No. What John Ryan did, John Ryan has a beautiful family, and with that family, he has – there were things that he needed to be able to do on the weekends. One of the many items had to do – or on Saturday mornings, one of the items had to do with taking his son to golf lessons.
And that was a little tricky for him to be able to do that and do this. And he is going to take a break from the show for a period of time until he gets a lot of those type things done. And he's going to be back on the show. We definitely miss him. I do too.
Yeah, I miss him being here, and no doubt he'll be doing the show from time to time, but it might be a little bit before he's on on a regular basis again. Michael, what should I look for if I'm looking for a machine shot to do work? Should I look for certain certifications, some kind of diplomas on the wall that didn't come out of a Cracker Jack box? What do you look for when you go to a shop for a good machine shot? Well, you know, you can look at their reviews and things such as that.
There are some certifications out there, but, you know, to be honest, I've seen certifications, people pass certifications that didn't necessarily tell you the whole story. Right. Okay. Okay. I kind of recommend looking at their facility. Word of mouth is my best advertisement.
Google reviews, very good thing. Sure, that. And kind of get an eye on, look, take a look, see what they're working with, you know. If you roll up in there and they got a hammer, a chisel, and a vice, you know, you're in the wrong place. You know what I mean? But if you go in there and they got a clean facility and up-to-date equipment and... A concrete floor. Absolutely.
You know, you're in the right place. And Ron, I will mention, he probably won't say this part, but one of the reasons I asked Michael to be on the show, and I realize this is something that a lot of other people around the country would listen to and say, well, we won't be going to Buzz, but some of the things that he, the knowledge that he has and his type facility is something that you would look for wherever you're at because he has like a very nice, it's actually an air-conditioned facility with a lot of machines sitting around that look about the size of a Volkswagen. Right. Oh, yeah, it is. And all in between, he loves nice equipment and very knowledgeable on using that equipment.
So in my opinion, if you're looking for a machine shop, you want someone who invests in the newer technology type equipment. Absolutely. So, yes.
Yeah, and definitely what's between the ears, that's for sure. Yes. You know, you guys all know about this current price problem we're having with used vehicles and even new vehicles, how they've just gone nuts. And I'm sure Bo's Machine Shop and the others in town are going to go super busy because of this. This computer chip that they're talking about, what is it for? Is it for new cars or used cars? What's the shortage they're talking about that's driving this? Well, the ones that I know about are more for the new cars, and that's the reason that they just can't build the cars without the computer chips.
And here's an example from an article I was reading the other day. Honda will now, on some of their cars that they're selling, will only give you one key to the car instead of two like they normally do, because if they gave you two, that would make it to where they wouldn't be able to build another car. So they have to have these computer chips to be able to build it. Now, I don't know all of the information on the background of exactly why we're short on the computer chips.
But Michael, do you have any information on that? I can only speculate and go off here, say, but I've heard there's some ingredient that China is responsible for. And that's kind of rare. That's what I'd heard.
And I heard that here they are talking about environmental stuff, and they tell me to mine those minerals, they absolutely have to break the earth to get it. What it amounts to is no computer chips, no cars. And I guess that's with the keys, too. If you need a replacement key for your car, I guess that's where you'd be hard to find. I imagine that would play a part in it. I would think so, too. Yeah, a lot of different things. So it's a tricky problem because there's a lot of dealerships that normally have 100 cars on site, and they might have 10 now. And even electric bicycles, the gentleman we talked to the other week, he said he's got a demand for them, but he don't have enough bicycles or these e-bikes to sell. So that's tricky. See, the used car price is how they've gone up. I mean, so high.
It pays to do your maintenance to your vehicle and have good shops lined up, both machine and repair shops like CNC. I don't see it ending no time soon. This is going to be something we might have to deal with for a while. So buckle your belts. It's going to be a bumpy ride. And keep those cars rolling. That's it.
Cars, maintenance and repairs, you can keep rolling a long time. Ron, we really appreciate your call. We will meet you. Next weekend.
Oh, you do the same. And we will, let's pull over for now. And when we return, we'll have Chip Hansen, the president and CEO of J.B. Well, that's Chris Hansen. He will be riding with us as soon as we return with more of the CNC auto show. The CNC auto show is brought to you in part by Motorrad, a global leader in the development of high quality, reliable, and durable thermostats, caps and engine management solutions, helping keep millions of vehicle engines cool and operating efficiently.

That's M O T O R A D.com. It's time for more good stuff with Aaron Clements and John Ryan Mooney. J.B. Well has saved me many times over the years. The one I remember most is a car I bought that turned out to have a cracked block. I cleaned the area and added J.B. Weld.
I drove that car for two years. Be your strongest self and use the adhesive pros have trusted for 50 years. J.B. Well available at jbwell.com, Lowe's, Advance Auto Parts, Napa, O'Reilly, Michael's and more. J.B. Well's world's strongest bond.
J.B. Well, epoxy products are proudly made in the USA. We are back with you and we have a very special guest here with us today. President chairman and CEO of J.B. Well, Chip Hansen has jumped in to ride with us on the CNC auto show and chip. Welcome to the show and hold on.
I have a button. Wrong. Okay. Chip Hansen, chairman CEO of J.B. Well, welcome to the CNC auto show. Great to be here. John and Aaron look forward to talking to you guys this morning. Oh, thank you for being here. And it is a, it's an honor to talk to the team leader of a company that has saved so many people so much money over the years, including me. Thank you. Yeah, I heard your, I heard your preamble there and that's a, that's the kind of stories we get all the time, which makes this a, a really fun, a fun business and a really fun job to be part of.
Well, I know I've, uh, I've used it for many, many years, just as far back as I remember. And Michael mentioned real quickly one time, Michael, I hadn't heard the story yet. You just said J.B. Well to save you many times and chip mentioned to you, John Ryan, who is normally on the show with us a lot of times is not here today.
Michael rivers, who has a beautiful, I mean, a beautiful machine shop. Uh, he is here with us. Michael, you mentioned that it saved you a few times. Oh, sure. You know, we can, we keep it on the shelf. Uh, you know, we use it. Uh, we, we install plugs and cylinder blocks and, you know, we'll mix it up and use it as a sealant. Other cylinder blocks, just like you say, you'll have a crack that, you know, you use it as insurance a lot of times.
Sometimes you use it cause you know, you got a leak and you mix it up and go across the top of it and you know, it saves you. Michael, you sound like the, the, the, the reason the company was founded was for that very purpose. I mean, we had, uh, all kinds of, uh, cracked engine block opportunities as it still exists today, but that's one of the, the beginning uses of JB Weld was both on, uh, cracked engine blocks. And then on, uh, on kind of the mounting brackets, uh, where the truck engines were mounted to the frame. So, so you were, uh, you were part of a, you're part of the reason why JB Weld was invented. We just didn't want to have to acetylene weld torch something, and we also didn't want to throw away an expensive engine part that could be fixed.
Yes, sir. Uh, you know, for the longest time, it seemed like, uh, JB Weld was a secret only known by the automotive world, but, uh, it has since, you know, things have changed. You have the clear weld, you have the, for wood, for crafts, uh, people that work with wood, uh, crafting, uh, use a huge amount now. Uh, Chris, you know, it, it, it, it really was a natural, uh, when people used it for, for metal predominantly early on, then they said, well, gosh, it works so well here. Can I try it here?
Can I, can I use it on this? Uh, you know, either wood or plastic or household, uh, kind of applications. And, uh, lo and behold, we said yes. And, and then obviously we tried to develop, uh, products more specific to those, uh, types of applications. So today we have, uh, products for wood, metal, and plastic used, uh, both automatically and around the house, you know, so it's, uh, it's been a, it's been a great, uh, run. And we're, uh, happy to keep solving problems and making people smile. Well, Chip, one of the things I wanted to ask you is the difference between the bonding something together and gluing something together.
Sure. Uh, you know, we, we look at bonding as something that is more permanent, kind of, you know, something that you're going to do to fasten two things together and to securely put things together. Where gluing sometimes is just kind of sticking two objects together temporarily. So bonding is really, uh, you know, a much stronger, uh, attitude. And in this case, a much stronger result.
And that's really where we shine. Our products are two part epoxies and we look for those to be, you know, a permanent bond versus say gluing something, which may be a temporary fix. Yeah. And the difference between an adhesive and epoxy, uh, and, and glue that those differences.
Yeah. You know, there's a, there's a lot of different terms, you know, uh, again, a glue is generally a single component. We all know good old Elmer's glue, you know, we, we, we had it in our schools as a kid and played with it and it, it's, uh, it, it, it has its, uh, limitations and epoxy is really, you know, one of the strongest adhesives you can get. Uh, it's a two component, you mix it together and when it sets, it sets really strong and becomes permanent. And, and adhesives in general are just, that's just a term for stuff that's sticky. I mean, a tape is an adhesive. So in our world, you know, uh, uh, glues are down at the spectrum of maybe, uh, adequate for some things, but not the strongest. Uh, and then, you know, epoxy is all the way at the other end of the spectrum where you say, you know, I really want to make this permanent. I want to do this right.
Uh, and, and that's where JB Weld's, uh, forte and, and, and developmental research goes into developing things that are really strong and last really long. Well, Chip, I'll mention, uh, real quickly that that beginning part about that crack in that, the engine that I had, uh, that I had just gotten out of the air force and I had, uh, and I wanted something to drive, but I didn't have a huge amount of money at all. And so I bought what I could buy at the time and I bought this thing and it had a big crack in it and I said, here I am, uh, out of the air force and I got an engine here with a crack in it.
So I said, well, I'm going to give this a shot. I drove that car two years. I mean, after that, it was amazing to me and this was not just a little crack, this was a big crack and it saved me because of being able to drive that car for, for so many years. And of course, since then, uh, it's, uh, I've always remembered it.
Michael, did you have something you were going to have? Well, you know, JB Weld, you know, it being an epoxy, it can be machined, so, you know, you can use it to build an area up and come back and resurface it and, you know, it's... No, that's exactly right, Michael. You can, uh, you can tap it as well.
You know, you can, uh, machine it. It, it really becomes in many, in many situations, uh, harder and stronger than the material that's around it, you know, even the metal that's around it. So, uh, it's versatile enough that, uh, you know, if you've got stripped, uh, uh, threads, uh, you can actually tap it and then, uh, re-thread, uh, you know, if you, if you've repaired it with JB Weld and that, that goes for our wood product as well.
I get many people telling us about kitchen cabinet hinges and door hinges. And so it's, uh, it's just remarkably, uh, versatile and strong product. And Chip, what's some of the preparation that should be done to something before using the JB Weld on it? Yeah, that's probably the, the, the number one, uh, issue and probably one of the most important things to get a really great result. And, and it's really basic common sense, you know, let's clean the surface, let's make sure there's no contamination, dust, dirt, grease, whatever. And then let's look at applying, you know, uh, JB Weld on, uh, on the surfaces and then letting them properly, uh, cure, you know, putting them together, making sure they stay together. Uh, JB Weld tends to cure relatively quickly, depending on which variety and which product, you know, anywhere from one minute to five minutes to, to some of them, uh, several hours.
And, and to get an overnight cure, a permanent cure, you know, that's always a great, uh, great opportunity, but cleaning and preparation of the surface is always the key. Mm-hmm. Well, I'll mention that there's so many things that, uh, people, uh, could save a lot of money on, uh, by, uh, by, by using JB Weld and has saved a lot of money on.
And again, that does include me, Chip. I was going to, I was going to ask you, would there be a, uh, can you stay on the line just for a few minutes? Because I would love to talk about the Herculiner truck bed liners that, that, that JB Weld now has. And, uh, to me, that would be an important thing to mention here. Uh, so if you'll hold on, we will return just after this.

And we are back with you with the CNC Auto Show. And we have Chip Hansen here with us, the President, CEO, Chairman of JB Weld. And Chip, this is kind of exciting for us to have the opportunity to talk to someone who is the leader in a company that I've known about so long since I was 12 years old.
Walking in stores and seeing JB Weld and seeing people, because I started working on cars pretty early. But seeing it for so long, it's really kind of exciting for us. I sure enjoy you being here. It's very humbling to hear you give me all those fancy titles. At the end of the day, we're still just a family-run business that's trying to make great products. Well, you can tell.
And from talking to you, I can tell that. Now, we'll mention, JB Weld is now offering a roll-on truck bedliner. Can you touch on this and talk about some of the benefits of Herculiner?
Yes. We recently acquired the Herculiner brand. It was the original DIY aftermarket roll-on truck bedliner.
And we think it fits great with our culture and our product line. And the truck bed liner is a big area. Everybody wants to protect their truck bed from all the damage that occurs from folks working and all the working efforts that go into the back of the truck between toolboxes and moving and storage. And JB Weld thinks that we're going to be able to bring an adhesive focus and make it really strong as the rest of our products. And make it really versatile and able to absorb shock and able to handle chemicals and any kind of sunlight and all the things that destroy a truck bed liner.
So, we're happy to have the Herculiner brand join us and we're looking for good things in the future from it. It's not just a truck bed liner. It's used on trailers.
It's used on a lot of Jeeps. You know how people love to customize everything. So, we're looking forward to having that product line in our mix. And like I said, it's just been part of the family that joined us within the last six months. And we are on Facebook and we do have a display of the Herculiner and a kit there in front of us.
So, if somebody's watching us on Facebook Live, they'll be able to see that part of it also. JB Weld has been known as the original cold well. Can you touch on that a little bit?
Yeah. I think our founders were Sam and Mary Bonham. And like many entrepreneurs, they started in a garage. Sam actually used to repair and ran an automotive parts shop and repair truck engines. And he kept breaking off the mounting brackets that these truck engines were attached to the frame with and said, I just can't lose this truck engine because of this mounting bracket piece. And didn't want to use an acetylene torch, kind of the hot welding system. In his mind, he needed to come up with a permanent cold weld and went about with a chemist from Texas A&M and formulated the first and what became the original JB Weld.
And he and his wife set off. Mary was instrumental to the growth and to the success of the business and actually ran the business for many years after Sam's death. And she would put the two tubes together and put them in a box and Sam would go into a hardware store or an automotive parts store and sell a box. And pretty soon they figured that was a pretty good way to make a living and a much better way than being a truck engine mechanic. So, you know, just one of those great American entrepreneurial success stories. And myself and the management team were fortunate enough to acquire the business and take it over in 2008.
And we've been blowing and going ever since. Jim, Michael was telling me something just a few minutes ago during the break actually about JB Weld, him only seeing it in certain stores before. Michael, what were you talking about on the stores as far as seeing JB Weld years back? Like I said before, it was just a kind of an automotive secret, you know, and, you know, that's where, you know, I'm not quite as old as you are, but, you know, I started using JB Weld in my dad's garage. My dad, you know, worked at an auto parts store slash machine shop. And, you know, that was what they had on their shelf.
So that's what we had at the house. And, you know, we broke stuff in the shop behind my dad's house and I'm out there seven, eight years old trying to JB Weld it for my dad found out about it. It was mostly a professional type thing that only professionals knew about. Yeah, we have a very cult-like following of people like Michael, you know, who know the product, either learned it from their dad or learned it through their trade and continue to use it on all kinds of things today. And, you know, over the years, we've expanded the line to meet other needs, but it's really our core still goes back to that really strong bond and making a great product that can be used in really tough applications.
And Chip, I'm sure you get a lot of different stories in fan mail from people who have used JB Weld and it's helped them a huge amount. What's some of the stories that you might be able to mention or what's your favorite story that you've had? Well, you know, it's really, I said earlier, we're humbled and blessed to be part of the company because we get so many of these feel good stories. People just love to tell us, you know, all of the things that they did and things that we saved them, but one that comes to mind and I won't mention his name. He is a very large automotive aftermarket executive at one of the huge retail chains that all of you guys would know. But he told me the story one day that he had gotten out of the service and he and his wife were traveling in their very old car to his first job interview, which happened to be with this very large or at the time a lot smaller predominant auto parts retailer. And lo and behold, his car broke down on the way to the job interview and it was some sort of fuel leak in the fuel line. And he fixed it with JB Weld, made it to the interview on time. And today that gentleman is, I believe, the president of this multibillion dollar organization. So he's relayed to me at many times that his career was on the line and was saved. And the rest is kind of history and him becoming a top executive because he made it to that first job interview and was saved by JB Weld. So we love stories like that.
Wow, that one is good. Chip, where can people go to get more information about JB Weld? Well, our website, which is JB Weld dot com, and obviously that's one of the predominant places. And, you know, many of the retailers have websites and information online as well. And we're in all of the majors, you know, from AutoZone and O'Reilly's and Advance Auto and Napa, as well as all the home center guys, Home Depot and Lowe's and Wal-Mart and Menards and any number of those folks, Ace Hardware and True Value.
So all of those folks are all friendly and willing to help guide you to the right product as well as our website. And also, I noticed more and more in a lot of the major craft stores because of how well it's done as far as helping with some of the crafts. Well, yeah, we've got products there as well that, you know, crafting is a big area that has a lot of different things.
And, you know, you can call any number of things a craft. So once again, that JB Weld strength and bond and kind of our permanent repair and our versatility have lent itself into many of the crafters wanting to use one or more of our products. Well, Chip, I want to say again, it has been a big, huge honor for us to have you here with us on the CNC Auto Show. It's, again, it just brings back so many memories and good memories of when I was working on cars at a very early age and seeing JB Weld using JB Weld. So this has been a lot of fun for me. Well, great, Aaron and Michael, we appreciate all your support and we love these kind of stories and let's stay in touch.
I would like that. And Chip, thank you again for being on the CNC Auto Show. Great, guys.
You have a great day. And you do the same. And the time clock is on E! And we need to pull over for now, but we will be back on the road in no time. I'm Aaron Clements with Michael Rivers of Bo's Machine Shop and show producer Mason Rogers with his lighted palm tree in there. And we would like to say thank you all for riding with the CNC Auto Show. And we'll be back on the road soon with another CNC Auto Show.
