Nah, the real MSM caps are only $40 new. You generally don't see them for sale used though: http://finishlineperformance.com/store/product.php?productid=16217&cat=0&page=1

I don't know why you're looking for a job man, just make high quality replicas of all the stuff we want but can't justify spending that much money on.

Dude If I had Machinery at my disposal,Job wouldn't eeeeven be a matter.
Most of the equipment Is in the $5000-$10000 range...with a decent CNC lathe(only) $15-75,000 used.If I had a machine shop,the level of work would startle most and totally confuse the rest...I'm like a mad scientist with this ****.....Most of the things I have built have been made in 5-10 min. increments...so that my former employer wouldn't find out that I was using his equipment.

My buddy and I once tried to fight to the death using bamboo sticks. Being two smokers it lasted about 3 minutes before we both gave up and cracked open some beer.

It's not as fun as it sounds.

Daniel, we will track you down like the dirty dog you are!
