[TheForge] Equipment for a newbie

[Robert Rodriguez]

I used to live in Charlotte NC (living in Concord now) and dollars to
pesos they dont know what they are talking about.  Matt, if I were you I
would go on line to the county website and look it up myself and not
rely on them to tell you what the code is.  The fire codes will be in
the city ordinance book which is likely to be on line (I have never
looked for Charlotte's but I have looked at Concord's on line)
