Congrats man, that was quick. Kenny would have loved to see that I bet.

I need to make it up to Braintree to visit him.

Shoot me a PM when you intend to show it to him, if I'm free I'll check it out too. smile.gif
I couldn't hang around because I was on jury duty and had a short lunch.

Congrats ! Glad it is done ! laugh.gif

We'll have to get together to compare projects.

Cant wait to see pics! Congrats!

Sorry, no animated sigs allowed.
Why would you do a project like that, start a thread about it, and not bother to take 2 minutes to post up a single pic?

I'm not raising it yet, but I'm getting my BS flag out, just in case.

I don't blame you, many have talked about it. Few have started.

I Have seen the parts and the project progress.
Maybe I will stop by and snap a few pics myself. biggrin.gif
