I'm starting as well. Let me know if you want help brainstorming/planning. I'm located in Astoria Oregon, but I make regular trips to Portland. If you want to know more about me you can check out my Facebook profile, "William Berezay". I also have free ODST printable templates for short and tall people if you need me to email them to you.
