Eric - thanks for the offer, and the effort.
Is there any way a person would be able to self-host this?

All the best,

OK, I'll be happy to make one for free for anyone to use. If you remember,
a while back, I offered to make a 'car maintenance log' for anyone here that
wanted it. While no one bit, I did make it, I called it "BOLTRAK"
You put in your cars, part numbers for oil filters, oil weight and
capacities, etc. Then you add a record each time you work on that vehicle.
It can record time and money spent, vehicle miles the work was performed at,
etc.
I'm sure it can use some polish. It's not perfect, since I'm the only one
using it, but I like it.
NOTE- Like me, none of my software is pretty. It's 'brutish' at best, but,
also like me, it gets the job done.
If there really is an interest, I'll be happy to make a web based tool
inventory application. A big advantage would be that it would be 100% off
site (your site) so if the unthinkable happened, the data is safe. (of
course, I can email you an excel spreadsheet anytime you want.)
So, just email me the features you think are important, and I'll put it
together if there is enough interest.
What I think a record would need...
-Tool
-Brand
-Date purchased
-Amount
-Where purchased (is that worth having?)
-Photo?
-Copy of receipt?
-Where stored?
I could also do an import if you have a spreadsheet already, just send it to
me and I can import it into your tool vault.
I could also build in an 'wife total.' Meaning that you would click on a
total money spent button, but it would only show you a predefined percentage
of the actual value that you set. IE, you set a 50% value. Anytime you hit
the 'total spent' button, it would only show you 50% of the value. This
would be to prevent domestic violences of course! 8>)
Any other ideas?
Again, it would be web based (not platform dependant) and 100% free all the
time.
