Fender Roller Rental
Ok, so I know alot of people including myself have wanted this done for awhile, but we've never really gotten serious about it.
I priced a good heat gun at Lowe's yesterday, it was $42(but they had some as low as 20 but they only had two settings 750F and 1000f, the better one($42) went down to 250 and up to 1300F), fender roller rental is 50+ return shipping.
42+50+(~15 for shipping)=107
If we get 5 people it'll only be ~21 dollars a piece. Someone also has to pay for the $200 deposit, which I'd be fine with paying or ordering it or if Paul wants to that's fine as well.
We'll all need to collaborate and pick a good weekend because you only get 5 days with the roller before your charged $10 for each day its goes over. We can setup some kind of tech day/fender rolling day to try and get everyone's car done in one weekend.
Who would be interested? Add your name to this list

We'll at least give it enough time for everyone to see this, then we can all decide on the weekend.
THIS WILL BE AT YOUR OWN RISK, I cannot promise that your paint will not crack. This will be all of our first time's and I'd strongly suggest everyone do as much research on this subject as possible before d-day.

On the fence here... It's a good deal only if I don't screw anything up. I don't think I'm rubbing much at all, yet... I'll have to reassess in a few weeks after it settles and I get an alignment.
If you guys do it before then, I'll at least come to watch and learn.
