I had two web sites open, Amazon and otrattw.net (great site for switches). Had all of switch needs planned out and in the shopping cart. Spent around 2 hours sorting through it all. Fortunately I decided how much was left in the build fund before hitting submit on either.

Yes, I could have made the purchase, but it would have killed the rest of the budget for a couple of months. Switches, wire connectors, wire of various colors, relays ... it all adds up very quickly. I was hoping to knock it all out in one day (purchasing the parts that is). However, I am also planning a trip to Colorado in July and I moved money from the build fund to help pay for that. Damn budgets.

Anyway, I chose too wait. I don’t want to max the budget for the VX as I also buy spare parts, oil, transmission fluid, tools, and other such nonsense out of the same budget.

Budget may keep you from over spending, but sometimes they seem too small. I need to hit the lotto LOL!
