Smell a vision! Gotta have the smell of the burning metal, and hear the god damn-its. That and Mrs is doing baby back ribs tonight after she gets her smashed.

they flatten em good too! YOW!!

The baby backs are slow cookin as we speak, they should be on the grill by about 7:00 - in the meantime we're getting all the junk cleared out of the garage to make room for the stadium seatin~~ um, I mean, to give Mark room to work.

Mark, you really need a bigger place with stadium style seating, so you can sell tickets to the "SHOW!" I'd pay for ringside seating. Just to watch you perform your magic!

I sporting wood, more pictures, thats sexy!

It would need to have lexan shields like a hockey rink cause there tends to be a lot of stuff flying around.

That would make OCC look like a day care nursery.

He's right!! I was ducking and covering earlier! Tinydog's hiding in the master bath shower at the furthest end of the house from the garage!

Well... I walked outside to go to the store and found an envelope sitting on the pile of wood stacked next to the wall on the front porch.
I assume it just came today, but the way it was leaning against the house you could hardly tell it was there.
A little something from across the pond...

it's not on the wall

And Fongs sent it to us.

We assume the picture of the guy is the man, Fongs, himself.

Progress report:

Ok I didn't get as far as I would of liked, but did get something done.

The coupler is almost done.

I first had to true up the lathe so it would be true and not be out of round.

After that I made up a jig to fit a trans hub to the coupler.

Now I need to just cut it down to the proper length.
