Al's Hobby Shop - 02-10-2006, 09:22 PM

It's been a while since I went to Al's but man does that place have just about everything. If you need tools or hardware, screws, taps, paint, sheet metal or tubing, they have quite a lot to choose from. I kept thinking it was so far from my office, but it's not too bad. Shopping is fun when they have what you need!

Now before y'all jump on me about Leisure Hours shop, I will admit I haven't been there, as it is far from my house, and farther from my office. It may be just as good, but it's not as convenient for me.

Man I was going to go there today and I got SOOOO lost it wasn't even funny.


If a friend gets you a beer from the bar, is it acceptable for the friend to stick his finger in the opening to bring back several beers to the table at once?

I love Al's, that is where I have bought everything for my car so far. I am going there tomorrow actually to buy some fuel, and a front skid plate.

Al's is my LHS as well. I live about 10 minutes or so away. I have been to both leisure (about 8 times) and Al's (countless times) and I always seem to have better luck at Al's and get better help. (Prices are better too. :-D )

Yeah, Al's is 10 min from work for me, so thats my spot too. Seem to have everything, and if not they order it for you and its in in 2-3 days. With no shipping charges. Beat that Tower!

I've been to leisure hobby once so far and I was amazed how stocked that place was. But Al's is closer for me.
