I could lay a decent bead after an hour with the welder. It's not as hard as you think I'm sure you would save $$$ that way pls you could acquire a very handy skill

North side of i10 right before mason? Doesn't look like much... Only flat land if I recall..?

There's a spot off of west belfort and bw8 that I know off that's completely hidden... I was behind the cinemark yanking a friend out who had called me and as soon as I pulled out a cop was heading right at me.. Told him all I was doing was pulling someone out and he gave me no trouble but anyway the point is that the Katy area is hot and I'd rather use money for mods instead of trespassing tickets

That spot looks hot too with the way they have it blocked off and with a few people going there would draw attention to the garbage transport people we would have to drive by. Both times I went I managed to slip by on my way in but on the way out they stare pretty hard.
