Default A good past weekend !
I finally started on my -8 tail this weekend. I matched drilled HS603 to HS609, HS412, HS413 and HS411. Prior to that My girlfriend and I built the Vans practice toolbox. Oh yeah we had a little help from our dog.

(I am using these pics as practice from my website, sorry if they are too many)

Default Lock it in!
Is this the same girlfriend from the "I'm the luckiest guy in the whole world" thread? If so, you are *crazy* if you don't get that left hand ring thing going!

BTW, thanks for editing the dog pic.

I pretty much did the same thing this weekend with my sister helping . Well, except it was the -7 HS and stuff. I hope to have some pictures soon.

Osxuser-Send picture of sister. We all know what a horizontal stab looks like. HA!

Sorry, couldn't resist.



By the way, that pink looks like my bathroom color. I actually like it 'cause I think I did a **** good job on it. And a pink Sukhoi SU-26 I saw one time had a sign on it that said: "Yeah, it's pink. You got a problem with that?"
