Bought a used wash.

Jealous of your Petit machine. If your up and running now please send a vid with that running. Did you quit your job?

Have not quite finished the site but the Petit is done. I will post a video when it's running. I ended up going part-time at my job. We have a baby on the way so insurance was important to me. I work two 10-hour days back to back every week and I get to keep my full benefits. So far it's working out.

Haven't been installing the Petit for 4 months. This was a total rehab. Only thing left after I gutted it was a 2" water line coming out of the concrete. I built my own SS equipment, RO system, installed dual tankless water heaters, ran new 1" gas lines and the list goes on. My wife and I have flipped 5 houses this year on top of taking care of 2 kids with a 3rd on the way as well as taking care of our other three car washes and I work my regular job 2 days a week. That's why it has taking me so long.

with a 3rd on the way

If you had enough time to create an entire new life you had enough time to complete your little Carwash project.
Congratulations!

Good for you- I’m sure your efforts will reap big rewards! Good luck with the new wash!

Yeh, doesn't sound like that much.

I figured no one would notice it.

I'm motivated. An old man told me one time, "If you want more, you do more".

Had our grand opening last Friday, so far smooth sailing.

Nice. Congratulations on getting her up, running, and open!

Congratulations. You can do it (Y)

Well I have my work cut out for me on this one but I am looking forward to it. Going to replace the old laser 4000 with a Washworld Profile and keep the SS equipment and rebuild it all. This will be my 4th wash and I am planning on quitting my government job of 16 years as soon as I have it up and running. I appreciate all the help through the years from this forum. I've learned so much and couldn't have done it without all your help. Thank you to everyone.
