turning brake drums, surface flywheel-amazed!

OK so I spent the last 40 yrs in Missouri, Getting any type of machine work was NO problem. Local O Reilly, NAPA, anywhere. Here in Texas finding anyone that does this is next to impossible. And NO I will not drive into Houston the hell hole of Texas to get such done! I know, I am a dineauuseaur ( OK so I do not have spell check!).. I know just buy NEW!!!!!!!! Right!
I am totally amazed at how this part of the country is so INADEQUATE! Everyone is paid royally, just trying to do simple things is a daily pain. Companies take off the entire week for opening gun season, back in Mo., any idiot could get his over the weekend!!! LOL
Rant over!!
