    Lowes parking lot on Northwest Highway and Jupitor. And if you turn right once in a while it evens out.

    Try Arlington Sportscar. Mike Sauce may have the machine.

    Plus I've heard that shaving used tires is hard on the equipment. Bits of gravel etc will damage the blade so most places will not do it.
    I’m a man, but I can change. If I have to, I guess.
