Summit County commissioner Q&As: Karn Stiegelmeier
October 16, 2012
I have enjoyed my first term as commissioner. I believe I have done great work for the people of Summit County. I am proud of the collaboration and cooperation producing excellent solutions for all citizens. The Colorado River Cooperative Agreement (CRCA) ends decades of conflict, gives us certainty for our water future, protects streamflows, lake levels and improves our watershed. The cooperative project co-locating a community center with our new library on Harris Street and renovating this historic icon is a win for Summit County taxpayers. Completion of the circle of recpaths around the lake is another win for our community. The Zero Waste Task Force is still in process. Collaborative solutions can take a long time. However, the end product includes consideration of all stakeholders needs so that the solution really works for our community. These examples of collaborative projects, saving taxpayer dollars are the way governments should be doing business, working in the best interest of all citizens.
• Further reduce our utility bills – more energy efficiency and solar electricity• Better transportation movement – less congestion, more transit• Improved fire mitigation + public education/awareness regarding emergency planning• Additional workforce housing completion • Added protection for key open space parcels• Protection of West Slope water resources – we have the CRCA, but there is still more work to do • Enhanced early childhood and school-age programs• Broadband and cell service improvements • Implement zero waste solutions
When I took office in January 2009, I saw the "fiscal cliff" of property tax declines hitting us in 2012, and immediately began considering appropriate actions. All possibilities of restructuring, including privatization, were evaluated. Proactive action was taken in '09, '10 and '11 in preparation for the revenue decline of 2012. Expenditure reductions were achieved with staff reductions, cross training, technology and cooperation. I continue to look at ways to be more efficient. Our revenue reserves today, are double that of 2009, giving us a cushion of flexibility going forward. We are facing 5 percent residential property tax decline that will hit us in 2014. That revenue loss will be offset by new construction, new utilities and mining infrastructure, additional staff realignments savings and continued savings from team efforts by departments every year. We are on a sustainable path going forward, due to the tough work done in '09-'11, planning years into the future. Resurgence in our economy is reflected in recent building and real estate markets. Our role as county government is to provide efficient services and infrastructure, so the private sector can thrive to reinvigorate our economy.
We have the structure in place: our County Wildfire Protection Plan and the wildfire council, including county, towns, fire departments, USFS, state FS and local citizens. Summit County is a leader in collaborative efforts, using private, neighborhood, HOA, county, state and federal resources to engage property owners, and volunteers.Next steps include: • continue to prioritize the most vulnerable locations in the county, reach out to homeowners to further reduce our wildfire risk. • continue emphasis on forest health with our CSU Agricultural ext. office, and reaching out to the less organized or prepared neighborhoods. We have development reviews in place requiring defensible space for new development, but unless it is a requirement of a PUD or HOA, there is currently no ability for the County to require ongoing maintenance. I am supportive of State legislation giving us more flexibility to have authority to require ongoing defensible space, like the towns can do today.

Finding A short?
:welcome:Finished wiring my car (used a wiring kit) and now I find that when the battery is hooked up, the car has not run for 2-3 days, my battery is near dead. The power window switches are always lit up (which I assume they should) and nothing else seems to be live. What I'm wondering is will 4 of these switches cause my battery to run down after a few days. I disconnected the ground cable and hooked my multi meter to the ground cable and the negative side of the battery and I get a reading of 10.69 volts. I would think that this is a bit too much of a draw, if they are the problem. Any thoughts as to how I might tackle this?
Yes, had that happen. The power windows are always hot and the light up switches drain the battery.
With your meter hooked up as you described you can pull one fuse at a time from the panel and observe what the voltage does. If you pull the fuse for the window switches and the voltage stays high you have a draw somewhere else. BTW, my window switches only light when the park/headlight switch is on. 10.6 V is way to much draw with the key off.
:welcome:I agree with you....almost 2 volts is too much draw for the switches, but that's the way the wiring is done (EZ wire). Switches are always live without the key. I will check the fuses one at a time and see what happens.
Just unplug the window switches and see if you have a draw. If that is the culprit then install a relay that's pwr'd when the key is on and allows the existing circuit to pwr the windows etc......
My bet is that the alt pig tail has been crossed, my reasoning:
The draw of the lights in the switches shouldn't draw the batt down that much (unless the battery's starting to go bad)
When you lay your hand on the alt caseing is it warm?
Terminal #1 from the alt goes to the one side of the idiot light on the dash. The other side of the idiot light goes to a switched 12v source (hot when the key is in the run position) This is the exciter wire and tells the alt to start producing juice. The idiot light does not get a ground wire, it gets a ground from the internal regulator in the alt when the alt isn't spinning. That's why it lights when the key is turned to run but the engine isn't running, and it goes out when the engine starts.
Terminal #2 from the alt goes to the hot side of the wiring system, normally its spliced into the hot feed leading to the fuse box. This is the sense wire, it tells the alt to produce more or less juice depending on the demands of your electrical system.
So if you switched them, the hot side of the elec system is grounding via the internal regulator and will drain your battery in 2-3 days.
:welcome:Sorry to take so long getting back to the problem, but the car was at the upholsters for a few days. My problem is now really getting me confused. I hooked up the meter between the ground and the disconnected battery cable. I get a reading of 10.69 volts whereupon I removed the fuse that gives power to the power windows and their switches. My reading is now 12.65 volts. Great! I disconnected the meter, replaced the fuse and hooked up the battery cable and noticed a slight spark. What gives now? Hooked up the meter to the now disconnected battery cable and now have a reading of 12.69 volts!!!! No 10.69 volts!!! Has it healed itself? Not by a long shot. Temporarily removed the meter and immediately hooked it up again. 10.69 volts again. What am I missing here? Why does it read 12.65 volts one minute and then 10.69 volts the next? This happens each time I disconnect the meter. Something is intermittently drawing this voltage and I can't figure out what it is. The radio face plate has been removed and so I don't believe that it is drawing power.
If I understand how you are hooking up the meter, you are not measuring the draw on anything when you disconnect the ground cable from the vehicle. When you disconnect the ground cable from the vehicle and measure voltage between the cable end and the battery positive you are just measuring static battery voltage. Once you take the ground cable off the car, it takes the rest of the car out of the measurement.
You are trying to use a voltmeter to measure current draw and it will not work that way. A voltmeter can only measure the voltage difference between two points. If you want to measure current draw you need to disconnect the ground cable from the battery and put an ammeter between the ground cable end and the battery negative.

Sounds like you aren't gettiing complete disconnect from your window switches etc..... adding a relay to control the pwr input might solve it. I've added a dia to add a relay.
75gmck25 is right, you're doing the measurements wrong, but the main thing you need to do is get the power windows from hot all the time to switched on with the key. The only things that should be hot all the time on your car are the "keep alive" memory circuits of the radio and engine/drivetrain computer if you have one. Horns and emergency flashers are always hot also, but I've never seen emergency flashers on a tall T.
:) Okay the first thing I will do is use an ammeter and see what my draw is. Next I will isolate the power windows with a relay and hopefully that will be the end of the draw. Thanks for the input.
:) Well the short has proven to be a draw. Couldn't find an ammeter in my junk parts, but did find a test light. When used in series with the battery cable, the bulb lights up dimly. Pulled the power window fuse and the light is still dim. Pulled the radio fuse and no more light. It seems that the power window switches and the radio are the parasitic draw and not the short that I thought I had. And so the question I have for the "EOD Guy" is where would I cut the wire and place it into the relay circuit. The wiring is literally buried under the dash and resembles a spaghetti dish at a fine restaurant, which means it will be difficult.
Depending on which kit you used....... it may have wire numbers/labels printed on the wire etc...... It doesn't matter where you cut the main pwr wire to the window switches. My windows relays are located behind my dvr's kick panel. The only place I do not recommend, is inside the door it's self....... unless you can waterproof the relay connection.
If you are comfortable with wiring etc....... pull the fuse block apart and see if you can re-route the feed for your window fuse. ie.... right now it's on the constant 12v buss you might be able to cut it off the constant buss and put in a jumper to the switched/assy buss.
If your wiring kit is from a major player, they often have provisions for installing a relay directly to the side of the fuse blk....... it would be very easy to locate the window pwr out wire and cut it right at the fuse blk, hook it to the relay etc.......
:D Appreciate the reply. Now I have to make like an contortionist and track down this colored/numbered wire and reroute it through a relay.

I use the bosch type relays for everything. A very good source are Mopar type cars, they use a very small and skinny 1/2" by 1" relay for just about all their functions...... I use the small female spade connectors to plug into the relay terminals. I put a piece of shrink tubing on the bundle of wires, crimp on the connectors, place the connectors on the relay, slide the shrink wrap as far as it will go towards the connectors, then heat the shrink wrap, makes for a nice neat connection.
:) It just so happens that I do have a few of these relays (left over from ??). In a way they are better because you don't need the relay socket. Thanks again.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Phat is giving you good information, but I feel that the clip is too wide generally. If you put disc brakes on, this will increase the width 1 1/2". Next, you will be buying FatMan Fabrications narrowed A arms.
|Hey one more thing if you got that far.Get the rear end set to the height you need it. Now check the lower control arms to the ground...are they level(front to rear,tipped back a degree or so is ok but forward is a no no) Also the take the springs out and put a piece of threaded rod were the shocks go or weld straps on the lower a-frame to frame with the lower a-frame level side to side( center of ball joint lower than the inner pivot for the a-frame) That will tell you if the clip is on to low or to high for you . Good luck
|Problem cured. I took Phat's advice and removed the clip. I did not cut it off however. I merely took my air cut off tool and cut off the old weld, loosened the clip up and squared it with the old ford frame. It is now within 1/8th of an inch from any measurement point. Now I will re-weld and shouldn't be any problem. I reinstalled the fron fenders and running boards on the frame and everything is centered. Life is now good again. Thanks Phat.
|I will say this much. If the guy could not get the clip even on straight....throw the frame away or cut the clip off and start fresh. The measuring and welding is the easy part of the clip. To do a clip properly it must have a body on the car...with front fender.Look at the wheels in the wheel opening with the clip tacked. now blow it a part and finish weld it. Did you check to see if the track width was ok?? I really think its to wide for a 35 drum brakes are a little narrow but if you change to disc's its wider.(i could be wrong on this one cause i dont do clips anymore) get the old tape measure out..start fresh.
|4 Jaw Chuck
|Air arc works good too. Just like erasing with an eraser.
Welded Front Clilp
My 35 tudor ford sedan has a nova front clip grafted on. When I pulled the body off, I found that it is not perpendicular with the body. Its about one inch short on one side. I guess that's what I get for buying the shell someone else already botched up. The old ford frame is slid in side the nova neatly and welded on the exposed edge. I'm thinking I can either grind off the old weld or get someone who is much better with a torch than me to take away most of the old weld. If i can seperate the two, I can square the nova clip with the 35 frame and everything would be hunky dory. Anyone out there have any better suggestion or advice? I feel this is my only hope for saving the frame.

there are many who misquote the bible....an example being "spare the rod and spoil the child." i thought for years that the bible actually said that.
what the bible actually says is: "he who spareth the rod hatith the child".
i have seen it said many times that ..."God will never give you a burden larger than you can bear. " ........I tell you now that it is a LIE.....God will give you burdens larger than you can bear but God will never give you a burden larger than HE can bear. That is why we have prayer. God uses burdens to get his children to bring it to him in prayer.
can we even fathom to think what it took for God to send his son to die for our sins? compared to that all of our burdens seem small and insignifcant. JUST SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT.

All this season in the matchday programme, to commemorate our first season at Emirates Stadium we are featuring 'Arsenal Firsts'. As we are celebrating Arsène Wenger's ten years at the Club today, we take a look at some of his personal 'firsts' from his time in charge.
His contract with the Club started on October 1, 1996, and his first official game in charge of Arsenal was the Premiership away game at Blackburn Rovers on October 12, 1996.
The Gunners won 2-0, with both goals coming from Ian Wright,
after three and 51 minutes. The team that day was: Seaman, Keown,
Adams, Bould, Dixon, Winterburn, Vieira, Platt, Merson, Hartson
(Parlour 86), Wright. Subs not used: Linighan, Morrow, Lukic, Shaw.
Attendance: 24,303
Referee: S Dunn
Booked: Hartson, Keown.
Home Game
Arsène's first home game came the following Saturday, when Coventry visited Highbury in the league on October 19, 1996.
It was a goalless draw, but the point was enough to lift Arsenal to the top of the table for the first time that season.
The team was: Seaman, Keown, Adams, Bould, Dixon, Winterburn,
Vieira, Platt, Merson, Hartson (Bergkamp 67), Wright. Subs not
used: Parlour, Morrow, Garde, Lukic.
Attendance: 38,140
Referee: P Jones
Booked: Hartson, Wright, Keown.
The first goal of Arsène's Wenger's reign came just three minutes into the first game.
Ian Wright fired Arsenal ahead at Ewood Park. Nigel Winterburn found John Hartson at the far post with a long diagonal cross, and he headed the ball back across goal to Wright. He controlled, beat his man, then arrowed the ball into the far corner. Arsenal have scored a further 1,021 since then.
The first defeat came in the seventh game, which was away to Manchester United in the Premier League.
Nigel Winterburn scored an unfortunate own goal that day, the only goal of the game, when he diverted Eric Cantona's shot past David Seaman. The Gunners were probably worthy of a point though, with Peter Schmeichel performing well in the hosts' goal on November 16, 1996. Manchester United also inflicted Arsène Wenger's first home defeat - a 2-1 reverse on February 19, 1997.
Remi Garde and Patrick Vieira were Arsène's first Arsenal signings, yet they actually arrived at the Club before the boss did. They both joined on August 14, 1996, Patrick from AC Milan, Remi from Strasbourg.
Patrick was 20 at the time, and uncapped by France. He went on, of course, to become club captain and Arsenal's most-capped international of all time. Remi, ten years older than Patrick, was actually the Club's first 'Bosman' signing, and was already a full French international, having previously been with Lyon. He made 43 appearances for the Gunners in two years, mainly in midfield.
Dennis Bergkamp scored the first hat-trick of the Wenger era - his famous treble against Leicester City at Filbert Street which included the Goal of the Season winner.
His hat-trick was not enough to secure the win though, as the Foxes hit back late on to grab a dramatic draw on August 27, 1997.
Arsène Wenger lifted his first trophy as manager of Arsenal at the end of his first full season. On May 3, 1998 Arsenal beat Everton 4-0 to wrap up the league title with two games to spare.
An own goal, two from Marc Overmars and one from skipper Tony
Adams gave the Gunners the win and their first league title since
The manager's second trophy - the FA Cup - followed just two weeks later.
In all Arsène has lifted 11 trophies with the Club - three league titles, four FA Cups and four Community Shields.
North London Derby
The manager didn't have to wait long to take on Tottenham Hotspur - his first North London derby was his fourth home game in charge, on November 24, 1996 at Highbury.
Arsenal won 3-1 with goals from Ian Wright, Tony Adams and a memorable late Dennis Bergkamp strike.
Since taking over, Arsène has lost just one of his 21 North London derbies.
European game
Although on the bench alongside Pat Rice in Germany for the second leg of the UEFA Cup First Round match against Borussia Monchengladbach in 1996, Arsène Wenger did not officially lead Arsenal into a European fixture until the following season. The Gunners lost 1-0 away to PAOK Salonika in the first leg of the UEFA Cup First Round on September 16, 1997.
The team was: Seaman, Dixon, Bould, Adams, Winterburn, Parlour
(Platt 70), Vieira, Petit, Overmars (Boa Morte 70), Wright, Anelka
(Wreh 80). Subs not used: Garde, Upson, Marshall, Manninger.
HIGHBURYReferee: M Diaz Vega.
Attendance: 33,117
Arsenal drew the return leg 1-1 to exit the competition.
The first player Arsène released from the first team squad was midfielder Eddie McGoldrick. He was sold to Manchester City in autumn 1996, and never actually played under the Frenchman.
The versatile Irishman, who joined from Crystal Palace in 1993, made 56 appearances for Arsenal, scoring once.
Red card
The first player to receive his marching orders under Arsène Wenger was Steve Bould. The defender was dismissed for a second bookable offence against Liverpool in the Fourth Round of the Coca-Cola Cup at Anfield on November 27, 1996. Arsenal lost 4-2.
Arsène Wenger has been named Premiership Manager of the Month on eight occasions, the first was in March 1998, the month in which Arsenal recorded that famous 1-0 at Old Trafford. He retained the award in April, and added the Manager of the Season award in May.
The first team squad Arsène Wenger inherited when he took over was as follows:
David Seaman, John Lukic, Vince Bartram, Lee Dixon, Gavin McGowan, Stephen Morrow, Nigel Winterburn, Tony Adams, Steve Bould, Martin Keown, Andy Linighan, Scott Marshall, Matthew Rose, David Hillier, Ian Selley, David Platt, Ray Parlour, Eddie McGoldrick, Paul Shaw, Stephen Hughes, Patrick Vieira, Remi Garde, Adrian Clarke, Glenn Helder, Paul Merson, Dennis Bergkamp, Ian Wright, John Hartson, Chris Kiwomya, Paul Dickov.
In this debut season for our new stadium, we'd like to read about the first time you ever watched Arsenal. Send us your brief account - no more than 200 words - and if we feature your account, we will also send you a professional A3 print of Emirates Stadium.
Either post your 'my first match' to: First Match, The Publications Department, Arsenal Football Club, 75 Drayton Park, London N5 1BU or e-mail: email@example.com
Today's first comes from Roy Stevenson who writes to us from Hadleigh in Essex.
I saw my first match when I was six years old and I watched Arsenal beat Leicester 2-0 on October 21, 1933. My father, who was an Arsenal supporter, took me to the match, directed me to the children's enclosure and arranged to meet me outside after the game had finished - how times have changed! I was in the Merchant Navy in 1944, aged 16, and when I left in 1948 I was a regular supporter and to get a seat in the front row of the East Stand I had to get to Highbury at 10am on a Saturday morning.
I went with my father regularly and always the same crowd were there. One young lady was a Jean Latty - I hope she is well and still a supporter. I remember Cliff Holton scoring a blinder from about 40 yards in one match in the same way Van Persie's goal will be remembered. Having had two knee replacements and a stroke, I now leave it to my son and grandson, Martin, to make sure the family is still represented. They are members and go to all the home matches and some of those played away.

Sure is a big price difference between the plastic and metal version. Maybe they know that the cheaper one will need a new plastic thingy shortly after purchase. :-D I'm in the market for one also. Let me know after you drop it a couple of times.
My buddy has one for wine making and said that it won't work for honey testing. Can't remember why.


text: i have a hive with very little honey for the winter (i'm in tx so i'm hoping they will make it) so i gave them a few gallons of sugar water. i check it the day after i place the top feeder but no bees were up there. does it take time for them to make their way up there for the sugar syrup?

I've started wondering whether I should just be a librarian...lol BUT no doubt you need a degree in it or something? And I doubt it pays much. I also wonder whether there will be that many libraries soon....
Lol! I didn't think librarians sat around and read!
(Though that would be awesome!)
He felt they deserve a certain reverence, whereas I beat mine up by taking them everywhere; reading in the tub; spilling coffee on them in the car; dropping them on the floor then forgetting them until a certain DOG chews the cover, or losing them amidst unfolded laundry.

"Falling Apart: A zine on death, grief, mourning and loss."
This zine is about grieving and mourning the death of someone while using letters, stories, poetry, artwork, photography as a way to help cope with grief.
There is a lot of misunderstanding when it comes to the death of a loved one....a lot of "time heals all wounds," "life goes on" and "what's done is done." Am hoping this zine will try to help people understand grief and not shaming those who are mourning into silence, denial, isolation and to "just get over it."
The grief zine is 38 pages and it's typed.
Currently have 10 copies on hand. If you would like to trade, contact me through the facebook page, send a message through wemakezines or email firstname.lastname@example.com

This first person shooter is a game the highest quality with a lot of superior thrills and unexpected moments. Its multiplayer mode is well designed, and it gives you something to aim for online, and the audio and visual content is well above the average.
Super Gamer Dude
Xbox 360
This first person shooter is a game the highest quality with a lot of superior thrills and unexpected moments. Its multiplayer mode is well designed, and it gives you something to aim for online, and the audio and visual content is well above the average. However, the shortness of the campaign is unusual for a first person shooter. Modern Warfare has a story that looks better than the previous versions of Call of Duty. The game easily be finished in less than six hours, but you can decide to raise the difficulty of the game, giving yourself a bigger challenge and making the enemies more deadly, but I found that this somehow distracts from the enjoyment of the game.
The game's great quality more than makes up for its lack of single-player mode. The story in this game is told from multiple perspectives. You can play as US Marine and British SAS operatives. This campaign takes you from a rainy night at the sea, on a boat that is in the process of sinking, to a missile store. It is up to you to save millions of people from the imminent nuclear delivered death. You will encounter many tricky situations in this world filled with war, but when your enemies are beaten, to your surprise, the world is left untouched and peace is restored. The action all through this game is straightforward, at the bottom of the screen there is a compass that shows the direction of your objective, but take note, moving from one point to another is not as easy as running in a straight line.
You will conduct huge assaults through Middle Eastern countries and you will be moving from house to house as you take out a never ending stream of enemy troops along the way. Here you will also get a chance to raid various enemy hideouts, looking for enemy leaders, using subterfuges such as making yourself look like one of the enemy. In the series you will also be expected to undertake bush warfare where you will be forced to crawl through the bush terrain, hiding as the enemy troops and their tanks roll past you. This is a breathtaking and nerve racking experience.
In this game up to eighteen players can get online and get into a match in 16 different locations. Many of the levels are taken from portions in the single-player as they offer unfriendly areas and cramped spaces where grenades and shotguns are the order of the day. The game has six modes which to choose from. Besides firing weapons and tossing grenades you earn yourself points for skilled tactical play. When you shoot three opponents without killing them, you are able to involve a UAV drone, with its upgraded radar it makes the enemy positions show up on your screen map for a limited time to assisy your attack. Regardless of the mode you are in there will always be something for you to work towards. The game is also available in Play Station 3 and PC and these versions are eported to play quite well, also with easy multiplayer setups.
If you are the sort of person who appreciates a first person shooter multiplayer, then Call of Duty 4: Modern Player is an above average game of its type and is recommended for you.

Any bodys around Chicagoland??? You mean like the people who formerly voted for McCain? LOL
Just wondering if anyone has got recommendations on good ranges? thanks
Any bodys around Chicagoland??? You mean like the people who formerly voted for McCain? LOL
Chicago right here. I live in the north side, looking for some good gun shops.
I use Megasports and Rinks in Lockport.Been meaning to try GAT in Dundee
I go to several, I live in Elgin so I have Gatt Guns RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER...nOT BAD BUT SOMETIMES THERE IS A LONG WAIT.aNOTHER IS iLLINOIS GUNWORKS. iTS ON gRAND AVE. jUST WEST OF HARLEM AVE. CHEAP, NO FRILLS BUT YOU CAN SHOOT AWAY AND NO ONE BOTHERS YOU.Then there's MidWest guns on Plaindfield rd. and First ave. Pretty nice very organized.
There is J.R Shooting Sports in Aurora not far from the Fox Vally Mall...
Good air quality and fairly new range only down side is its dimly lite...??? Good People though..
Im in Yorkville and am looking for a range as well... I guess Mega Sports and J.R.'s are all close, but Ive heard the guys at Mega Sports are dicks and J.R.'s Prices are really high
I go to Mega Sports a lot and the help there is always cordial and helpful. Maybe they seem difficult if they are helping someone else and you have a "simple question". In sales there is no such thing. There is plenty of help around if you wander around. The manager at the rental section seems like he is too busy to help you but there are plenty of other guys there who do help. I've been told by many different people that they like to employ off duty LEOs so perhaps they come across a little different than the average Joe. If you like to browse, leave your wallet at home and spend a day in there. You'll walk out saying "wow, nice place!".
Like with everything, you will find some people that love it and others will hate it.
We have shot at MegaSports and JR. I like JR because it's closer. A little more $$ but we save that in time getting to and from.
Both stores are high on some things, fair on others.
For absolutely the best shooting fun we often go to Buffalo Shooting Range.
Although it's all outdoors you can shoot there from April through November.
Lots of range choices for handguns, rifles, shot guns and a plinking pit!
As ranges go they have only a few rules but are very strict on them. (like you are banned forever)
NO PHOTOS of anything.
But you can bump fire!
Way too cool!
Maxon Shooters in Des Plaines, IL.They are great. My husband and I are in there at least once a week LOL.
Live right in the city: usually go to Midwest Guns in Lyons. 15 slots, no long waits except Sat. morning.
I use Midwest in Lyons. But that's because I live 5 minutes away.

I'm making a Darth Revan mask. I'm basing it off the picture I will attach. I have spray painted it black (it's a plasticy/rubbery material), and now I want to get the effect in this picture (a dark metal type look). How can I achieve that?? Any help would be greatly appreciated, and thanks! I'll post pics when I'm done.
By the way, I'm new here. So hello!
Here's the link if the attachment doesn't work:


text: Welcome from down in the swamp Stevexd9. Well as far as I can see you done it the right way. Both are good pistols and would serve you well but always get the one that feels the best. With me anyway if a gun feels good to me I usually shoot it good. Good shooting.

Professor Paul R. Dubinsky appointed director of Wayne Law LL.M. program
DETROIT (Oct. 21, 2010) — Wayne State University Law School is pleased to announce the appointment of Associate Professor Paul R. Dubinsky as director of graduate studies. As director, Dubinsky is responsible for overseeing a significant resource for practicing lawyers in Michigan – a program that provides advanced study in three popular fields of specialization: corporate and finance law, labor and employment law, and taxation. He will also continue teaching courses in international and comparative law, his areas of scholarly specialization.
Dubinsky succeeds Wayne Law Associate Professor Linda Beale, who has served with distinction as director since 2008.
"I would like to congratulate Professor Dubinsky on his appointment and thank him for taking on this important role," said Wayne Law Dean Robert M. Ackerman. "Professor Dubinsky's commitment to student success combined with his vast experience in both academia and the legal community make him an ideal candidate to lead our LL.M. program into its next chapter."
Dubinsky began his law career as a law clerk to the Hon. Jon O. Newman of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. Dubinsky then became an associate at the firm of Wilmer Cutler and Pickering (now Wilmer Hale).
Before coming to Wayne Law in 2005, Dubinsky was an associate professor at New York Law School and an adjunct professor at Georgetown University Law Center. From 1996 to 1997, he served as associate director of the Allard K. Lowenstein International Human Rights Clinic and associate director of the Orville H. Schell Jr. Center for International Human Rights at Yale Law School. As an International Affairs Fellow of the Council on Foreign Relations, Dubinsky was a member of the U.S. delegation to the Hague Conference on Private International Law during negotiations that culminated in the Hague Choice-of-Court Convention. This past March, he delivered the Justice K.T. Desai Memorial Lecture at the Bombay High Court in Mumbai, India, and for the past two years he has taught summer courses (most recently Comparative National Security Law) at Bar-Ilan University in Israel.
Dubinsky currently serves on the executive committee of the American branch of the International Law Association and on the U.S. Secretary of State's Advisory Committee on Private International Law. He serves also on the executive editorial board of the American Journal of Comparative Law and as a reporter for the 2010 International Congress of Comparative Law.
Select publications highlighting Dubinsky's expertise include "Is Transnational Litigation a Distinct Field? The Persistence of American Exceptionalism in Procedural Law" (Stanford Journal of International Law), "Human Rights Law Meets Private Law Harmonization: The Coming Conflict" (Yale Journal of International Law), "Justice for the Collective: The Limits of the Human Rights Class Action" (Michigan Law Review), "International Law in the Legal System of the United States" (American Journal of Comparative Law) and "Adventures in Treaty Interpretation" (American Journal of Comparative Law).
Dubinsky is a graduate of Yale College, Harvard Law School and the Universiteit Katholieke of Leuven, Belgium.

Wow, you all are laying it on a little thick with all the death stuff... A simple "I wouldn't do it" would suffice. But I thank you for your opinions.
I've also spoken to several people that have done it with low 9 second cars and said it works great. This being one of them.... 9.37 @ 150mph.
The NHRA rule book states you must have one working shock per wheel though. So I'll hold off,and fab up a custom 90/10 shock. If It wasn't endangering others though I would give it a shot. I won't take the chance of wrecking into someone else though.
|454 Rattler
Shocks in working order are REQUIRED at every track I've raced at.
Be safe or be sorry. Your choice.
How is your life insurance ?
RE: fwd struts
I haven't seen or heard of anyone doing this type of setup but I think the reason for that is you don't hear much from them after one pass. Personally I wouldn't use something like this ever end of story. Racing has enough risk with suspension,brakes and steering in good working order and I don't think it would pass any reasonable track tech. I am not a man with lots of money but if my car ain't safe it stays parked until I can afford to buy the right parts. And remember the Racer Rule #1 Fast,Cheap,Safe... choose any 2
Loose FWD shocks and drag racing safety
On the poor mans quest for a better 60 at the drag strip. Currently pulling a 1.46 60 and my front end has no travel. I can literally grab the bumper and lift up with all my might and it doesnt budge. Unfortunately I chose a 86 rx-7 chassis(light weight). There are no aftermarket drag shocks available. Running 8-way adjustable AGX shocks in the rear and front. Even on the lowest setting these shocks are very firm.
I decided to leave the factory springs and raise spring height. Then drill the FWD shocks and drain the fluid, then seal the hole. This resulted in a basically useless shock. Pulling up on the bumper by hand gives me a good 2.5-3 of travel now. There is a very slight dampening with the shock dialed to full firm. Still drives like I have no shock at all. Body roll is horrible, and the front end bounces. I did a few short street launches on the t-brake and the front end comes up very nicely now and seems to stay up as long as Im on the throttle.
So I guess my question is how unsafe is this? Ive heard of people doing this quite a bit but dont personally know anyone that has taken a low 10 second (133 trap) car down the track this way?

Fox Cries "Class Warfare" To Defend Rich From Buffett Rule
Research ››› ››› ANDY NEWBOLD
Fox responded with outrage after Obama renewed his case for the Buffett Rule, which would set a minimum effective tax rate for millionaires, accusing Obama of waging "class warfare."
"Class Warfare": Fox Objects To Buffett Rule Tax On Rich
Bolling: In Speech Promoting Buffett Rule, Obama "Kept To His Theme Of Class Warfare." During the April 11 edition of Fox News' The Five, commenting on Obama's speech, co-host Eric Bolling said:
BOLLING: [Obama] kept to his theme of class warfare. Here it is, come on down. Day one we find out that Mitt Romney is likely going to be the nominee and right off the bat it's the Warren Buffett tax, it's Warren Buffett's tax that's going to raise taxes on only those evil rich people. Not everyone else, just the evil rich people.
BOLLING: Warren Buffett does not say that a Warren Buffett tax will solve a darn thing. The only thing a Warren Buffett tax will do is create class warfare. Not help the debt, certainly not help the American economy. [Fox News, The Five, 4/11/12, via Media Matters]
Fox Regular Steve Moore: Push For Buffett Rule Is "All About" Obama's "Theme" Of "Class Warfare." From the April 11 edition of Fox News' America's Newsroom:
BILL HEMMER (co-host): [The Buffett Rule] would raise $47 billion over the next 10 years. $47 billion would fund the government for 7 days. So just more than one working week. Projected deficit over 10 years, so that's $7 trillion.
MOORE: Yeah.
HEMMER: So why do you bank on this then?
MOORE: Well, I think that this is all about the theme that President Obama has laid out in the last couple of months, that he reiterated yesterday, which is that this is about class warfare. It's about basically trying to tell the middle class, If we can take more money from the rich, that will make you better off. It's a theme that in history, Bill, has not really worked very well. [Fox News, America's Newsroom, 4/11/12, via Media Matters]
Napolitano: Obama's Push For Buffett Rule Is "Class Warfare At Its Worst." On the April 12 edition of Fox News' Special Report with Bret Baier, Fox News senior judicial analyst Andrew Napolitano asserted that Obama's push for the Buffett Rule is "class warfare at its worst." From the show:
BRET BAIER (host): Judge, you see the president, the vice president out on the stump. They're talking a lot about this Buffett Rule and we've talked about it ad nauseam here. About $4 billion is the total take on that. What do you make of this?
NAPOLITANO: Class warfare at its worst. Rather than a president who's trying to unite the country behind him, he is trying to divide the country. It doesn't make sense from a point of view of economics 101. The president is smart enough to know that. Meaning the imposition of the tax will actually result in fewer tax dollars going into the Treasury because of the effect it will have by removing that money from rich people to invest, which produces more jobs. He must know that, this is very basic economics with which very few people can disagree. But he wants to demonize the rich because Mitt Romney is one of them. [Fox News, Special Report with Bret Baier, 4/12/12, via Media Matters]
On Fox, AEI's Marc Thiessen Says The Buffett Rule Is An Obama "Campaign Gimmick" To Create "Class Warfare." During the April 12 edition of Fox News' America Live, Marc Thiessen, a Fellow at the conservative American Enterprise Institute, said:
THIESSEN: [Obama] is still pitting red America against blue America. That's what the whole -- the controversy over contraception is about, pitting red America against blue America. That's what the Buffett Rule -- fight is all about. He's pitting -- he even said the other day it's just a gimmick. It's a campaign gimmick to pit class warfare and pit Americans against each other. And look, this is what the Democrats wanted in 2008. [Fox News, America Live, 4/12/12, via Media Matters]
Fox Routinely Beats The Drums Of "Class Warfare"
Fox Figures Called Obama's Jobs Bill "Class Warfare." In September 2011, Fox figures responded to Obama's jobs bill by claiming that Obama is engaged in "class warfare ... one of those soak the rich things" and that Obama "could not help but resort to using the same kind of class warfare." [Media Matters, 9/13/11]
Fox Said Obama's Call For A "Balanced Approach" To Deficit Reduction Is "Class Warfare." In August 2011, Fox figures accused Obama of "conducting what is clearly class warfare" by calling for a "balanced approach" to deficit reduction. [Media Matters, 8/4/11]
Fox Blasted Obama's Speech On Inequality By Accusing Him Of "Class Warfare." Fox News figures responded to Obama's December 6, 2011, speech on inequality in America by accusing him of engaging in class warfare. [Media Matters, 12/6/11]
Fox Figures Claimed Obama's Deficit-Reduction Plan Is "Class Warfare." In September 2011, Fox responded to Obama's deficit-reduction plan by accusing him of engaging in "class warfare." [Media Matters, 9/19/11]

I'd like to get into making fiberglass props based on some of my molds. I've been searching through Google, but not finding much besides repairing boat hulls and aircraft wings.
Does anyone know of any really good links for small-scale fiberglassing? Or does anyone have a tutorial (with pics!) of materials and process?
Much obliged!

I stared the year by restyling our media cabinet in the living room. I painted the back Jamestown Blue when we first moved in, but the shelves were mostly monochromatic until January when I added in more books (some for $1 at Half Price books), and some other decorative objects and photos.
I get a lot of questions about the media cabinet, where we got it, etc. This unit was built in with the house and designed by our builder. I plan to show you behind the doors and drawers in the near future. Handy things like diapers, crayons/paper, and television equipment lives in there. Hopefully, diapers will be obsolete around here in the near future. Tips anyone??

Will Guestroom Locks Ever Get Smart?
By Tammy Mastroberte, Contributing Editor | February 14, 2011
Despite the proliferation of magnetic stripe cards, there are other options available when it comes to unlocking hotel guestrooms. While most hotel IT execs are aware of the tech (RFID and mobile phone-based entry systems, for example) they're just not spending IT budgets on them. According to Hospitality Technology's "
2011 Lodging Technology Study
," upgrading locks is fairly low on the guestroom priority list. Just 17% of respondents to the study rate upgrading locks as "extremely important" (compared to 44% for flat screen TVs and 37% for increasing in-room bandwidth).
For those hotels that are looking to upgrade, the priority is in managing cost while helping the hotel become future-ready for new locking
technology as it becomes available. The good news here is that installing wireless networking technology in general is a high priority (at 47% in our study), and that same wireless network can significantly help a hotel get more out of its locking investment. Once a networked RFID solution is in place, for example, it's much easier to switch to cell phone-enabled locking and other services down the road. In addition, a locking system on a network can communicate with in-room environmental controls and ultimately help the property save on heating and cooling costs.
Right now cell phones are unlocking European hotel rooms; but eventually the technology will take hold in the U.S. "What I'm looking forward to is the keyless entry system where the lock can read a signal from a PDA or cell phone," says Gary Byrd, executive vice president of hospitality at Wyndham Vacation Club in Orlando, Fla. (
), operating 150 properties. "I think it's on its way."
As for the top technologies that are impacting access to U.S. hotel rooms (mag stripe, RFID and wireless networks) Hospitality Technology offers this report:
"Most Affordable" mag stripe gets un-demagnetized
Still the most popular locking systems for hotel guest rooms today is the magnetic stripe, which resembles a credit card. The legacy tool continues to be favored for its affordable price-point and the flexibility it offers the hotel. "It can be used for ancillary room charges like the spa, restaurant or pool," Byrd notes.
The primary challenge with mag stripe is demagnetization, which can occur when the card gets too close to a cell phone. For some, a remote Web-based system alleviates this. The Wyndham Vacation Club uses a locking system from KABA; mag stripe cards were integrated three years ago, along with RFID for the high-tier rooms. "But now we are able to reprogram it remotely as opposed to guests having to come back to the front desk, so it isn't as much of an issue," Byrd says.
Currently mag stripe cards are less expensive than RFID, although they have the same encoding and virtually perform the same tasks. "It's the lock itself that has the intelligence in it, but the benefit of mag stripe is that it costs less," explains Darrin Pinkham, vice president of IT for Benchmark Hospitality International (www.benchmark hospitality.com) based in Woodlands, Texas.
RFID: "Most likely to succeed"
Although the option is more expensive, hotels are starting to choose RFID locking systems, whether used as a differentiator for high-level guests or throughout the entire hotel. "You have to pay attention to your market segment. You don't want to overbuild or incorporate high-level systems into entry or mid-level properties," explains John Lowes, executive director of guest technology for MGM Resorts International (
MGM installed RFID in many of its high-end properties, including the CityCenter project on the Las Vegas Strip. "My job for the first couple of years at CityCenter was to see how we could implement platforms that would give us the ability to keep up with tech trends or customer trends well into 2015," recalls Lowes. They settled on an RFID system from KABA Saflok (
) integrated with Zigbee wireless technology and an in-room automation system from Control4 Corp. (
) because it set the company up to easily add more advanced technology in the future.
At the upscale Aloft Lexington Hotel outside of Boston, RFID technology from VingCard/ASSA ABLOY (
) allows members from the Starwood Preferred Guest Program to use a smart check-in service. Guests receive a text message with their room number upon the day of arrival, allowing them to skip the check-in process and use their loyalty card to unlock the door.
RFID has its pros and cons: one of the biggest pros is that demagnetization issues are eliminated, and since the reader is no longer mechanical, maintenance is also reduced, Lowes notes. "It also gives us a platform to start looking at implementing other features with RFID by using the single card," he says.
However, guests need to put the card close to the RFID reader for it to recognize the signal, depending on the strength of the reader, according to Pinkham. It's also important to keep track of the battery life on the door locks, or the RF signal won't work.
"If the signal or the battery is weak, the device doesn't read," agrees Byrd, "but we have an override feature to use it as a mag stripe card." RFID continues to grow in usage, and will likely become the expectation rather than the novelty, he says. "If you don't have it, I think you will be behind the eight ball."
Wireless control: "Most versatile"
Whatever hardware they use, hotels that integrate in-room locking systems with other systems via a wireless network can enhance the guest experience and simplify operations.
At CityCenter, a Zigbee network is used to connect multiple devices, including a suite controller and the lock system. When the guest enters the room, the HVAC system, lighting, television and mini bar are activated. "It's equivalent to a home automation system, and we have an entry scene when the guest first uses the RFID card," explains Lowes. "The lights will come on, the drapery opens and the television powers on to a welcome screen and plays background music."
This can also be expanded into energy conservation for the hotel operator. When the guest leaves the room, lights can be turned off, temperature managed, and drapery can be closed to cool down a room, Lowes says.
"Zigbee is a more secure and robust network than the standard Wi-Fi or Internet," explains Pinkham. "It bridges from device to device so, for example, when an RFID smart lock has a low battery, the hotel will be notified to change it."
Additionally, both the mag stripe and RFID card can turn into a catch-all device for the entire property, allowing guests to use it to pay for meals and services, and gain access to other areas, such as the fitness center, says Pinkham. "It becomes more sophisticated with a wireless network."

When you're on the fence about something, it's a safe bet to ask Mom.
Before Bountiful High School senior Mosese "Mo" Manu decided to play basketball for the Braves during his final year of high school, Mom chimed in and talked him into it.
Which is why this week was so exceptional.
Prior to Friday's dramatic overtime loss to Sky View, the Braves had won 20 consecutive games dating back to Dec. 6. They were dominant, and Mo was a key cog in the run.
But Mo and Bountiful still are entrenched in a much more important battle. Mo's mother, Lile, is fighting cancer for the second time.
"She told Mo, 'It's your senior year and you'll go as far as you guys want,'" Mo's father, Salesi Manu, said. "It does make it very special. If it wasn't for my wife, he wouldn't have been playing basketball this year."
Lile's fight with brain cancer has become Bountiful's fight. The community has rallied around the Manu family. At least once a game since she was diagnosed, the student section, the BASS, roared, "We Love Lile!"
And right at the center was Mo, who was working for a state crown, keeping up his schoolwork, worrying and taking care of his mom.
As his aunt Natalie Tua'one explained, no matter what time Mo returned home from school or practice or a game, he did what was asked of him. "He's always been an exceptional boy ever since he was young."
Bountiful coach Mike Maxwell has seen the impact of having Mo in the starting lineup during that Braves' magical streak. He rebounded. He passed. He defended. He knocked down a corner 3-point shot with ease.
"Win or lose," Maxwell said, "we just have to help make Mo's life [that of] a teenager."
Basketball helped Mo watch his mother battle for her life. He knows how much his teammates and friends and fellow students love and support the family.
And the basketball court offers a temporary reprieve from harsh realities.
"I look at sports as a getaway," he said. "As soon as I step onto the court, it seems like all I have to focus on is what I practice for. When I step off the court, I can worry about all that other stuff."
For Lile, it's about more than basketball. It was her opportunity to salute a community that has wrapped its arms around the Manu family. She attended Bountiful's first-round victory over Westlake High School and sat above the Braves' student section as the "We Love Lile!" chant echoed throughout the Dee Events Center.
Tua'one and sister Valeri, along with Salesi Manu and other family members, cheered back, wiping away tears.
"It was really special. It was a milestone for her," Natalie Tua'one said. "We kept telling her to reach certain goals, and if she did, she'd be able to come to a game. She kept those goals."
Goals included standing on her own, walking to the dining table. Lile works hard for one more shot to see Mo play.
"He uses his mom as an excuse to play hard," Salesi Manu said. "If his mom can withstand the pain, all she asks is he play his hardest."
Maxwell said watching a player deal with pain and adversity is as tough as it gets.
"Every year is special, and you always try to find something," he said, "but this was just one more thing that said, 'We have to rally around this.' "
The Braves responded. One of the most popular Twitter hashtags in the Utah high school realm regarding any school or sport this season is "#TeamLile," in support of her struggle as well as giving a virtual pat on the back to Mo.
Bountiful's run even made overnight basketball fans of some in the family, Salesi Manu said.
"Everybody is coming together," he said. "That's what is amazing."
Natalie Tua'one said Mo can thank his father for his strength and his height, but he "got his courage from his mom."
That much was clear Friday as Lile sat in her wheelchair for the second time in a week, watching her son, whose Braves lost on an overtime half-court buzzer-beater. Once the game ended, the Bountiful student section turned toward Lile and began chanting one last time.

So, as I've just received my magnificent Asok CC helmet, and I'm ready to commit to cutting and sanding and painting and weathering, it's now time to shop for some of the necessities that will help this project along. I've already purchased a corded Dremel, it's a dream, sliced the excess helmet right off, it's really a breeze to use. Anybody who wants to make this a serious hobby needs to consider buying one, they are so cool. Also, it's the dreaded part of this build for me: finding an airbrush, compressor, and paints so that I can start painting my gorgeous Asok helmet. Have I said how amazing the helmet is yet? Asok was professional, and even when he forgot my ear cap he sent me it a day later, no charge. He's an upstanding fellow, that one.
But back to business. This is the start of a wonderful journey into the unknown of painting and hobbying, so I've decided to take a very simple approach in regards to buying tools and boba gear. I decided instead of buying all the tools and such at once, I'd take it a step at a time, buy little bits as I continue my work. Step one was buying a dremel. It's like a billion tools in one, nuff said. Next was purchasing a helmet. Asok has gorgeous helmets, I like gorgeous helmets, it worked. Now I need an airbrush, an air compressor, and various paints. So, this thread is to discuss airbrushes. What do you use? What do you personally recommend now as an experienced user, to a person just testing the waters? What other tools would you suggest that helped you out in an extraordinary way. Also, I know about Maskol, so moving along. This thread is about discussing amongst ourselves how to improve each other's ideas on hobbying. I'm new myself, but I'm actually pretty handy with tools and artsy craftsy stuff, so it's been less like taking a dive into the deep end, and more like setting sail in a rowboat. Hahaha, so let the brainstorming begin.

Karl Rove, the closest advisor to President Bush will be compelled to testify under oath before a congressional committee. John Conyers, chairman of the Hoouse Judiciary Committee, took the unusual step of issuing a subpoena which requires Mr. Rove to testify about the role played by members of the Bush Administration in the notorious case when nine federal prosecutors wre fired in 2006. The firing of the prosecutors initally led to a controversial confrontation between Attorney General Alberto Gonzalez and Congress during which his stumbling and bumbling testimony antagonized both Republicans and Democrats. The Conyers committee is also anxious to find out more about the prosecution of the former Demcoratic governor of Alabama, Don Siegelman, a case many regarded as more influenced by political than legal considerations.
Congressman Conyers said he had repeatedly asked Mr. Rove to voluntarily testify but he refused. Congressman Conyers said it was unfortunate Rove refused, "although he does not seem the least bit hesitant to discuss these very issues weekly on cable television, and in the print news media. Mr. Rove and his attorney have apparently conccludedd that a public hedaring room would not be appropriate. Unfortunately, I have no choice today but to compel his testimony on these very important matters."
The Rove testimony will most likely be highlighted by repeated attempts by the witness to decline speaking on ground he might incriminate himself.

Elaine Paige
Her release schedule only became more frantic as the years went by: she put out albums almost yearly and performed in several huge productions for the British stage including Piaf, Anything Goes, and Sunset Boulevard. When Sunset Boulevard came to New York in 1996, it was her first time on Broadway. She was met with much critical admiration, and brought her considerable talents to a television special for the BBC called A South Bank Show. The special showed her visiting different parts of the world where her plays had been set, and performing songs there in character. It was soon after this that she was showered with awards from critic collectives, theatrical organizations, and even the Queen of England for her years of service to the British theater. She spent the second half of the '90s performing at many tribute and benefit concerts, as well as her first major non-singing role on the stage, The Misanthrope. Her recording schedule slowed down considerably after 1998. In 2000, she started on a successful run of The King and I and began work on a second duet album with Barbara Dickson. Next came a revival of the 1971 James Goldman and Stephen Sondheim musical Follies, with Paige playing the central role of Carlotta Campion. The cast recording for the musical appeared on CD late in 2011. ~ Bradley Torreano

Peak 10 supports Microsoft® Windows Server.
This paper outlines principal considerations and evaluation tactics for technology professionals contemplating a migration of their databases to a cloud platform. Primary decision factors can be characterized as the "four S" considerations:
• Strategy, or the need for a prudent, often gradual, migration plan, which may feature a public, private, or hybrid cloud solution;
• Security, from HADR (high availability/disaster recovery) capabilities to safeguard against malicious attack;
• Savings, or a cost-benefit advantage; and a
• Service dimension that inspires confidence.
Many cloud hosting providers have achieved ticket-of-entry credibility in the data warehousing industry by building simple colocation centers. A first-tier database as a service (DBaaS) contender, however, is set apart by a value-added service approach that is strategic, consultative and responsive. A first-tier provider also offers state-of-theart technology, like Microsoft SQL Server 2012, and commits to a product roadmap that expands their customers' capabilities. Blending conscientious service, strategic insight and highly reliable technology is the way to earn customer confidence.

Souvenirs: the good, the bad and the ugly!
04 August 2013 , 9:11 AM by Rob Minshull
Many travellers like to bring home a momento, a souvenir from a holiday trip. It may remind them of good times or trigger a memory of a favourite place.
This weekend, Warren Boland is talking to Queensland travel writer Tiana Templeman about her best and worst souvenirs, her recommendations and what is prohibited.

In July 2009, the Texas Legislature authorized TxDOT to go to contract on approximately $2 billion in general obligation bonds for highway improvements. Texas voters approved these Proposition 12 bonds, which are backed by the state's general revenue not by fuel tax revenues, by a 63 percent margin in November 2007.
Project Selection
TxDOT districts and Metropolitan Planning Organizations identified more than $8.9 billion in possible projects. In October 2009, the Texas Transportation Commission was presented with a narrowed list of projects recommended by staff. The Commission approved an initial project list at their regular Nov. 19, 2009 meeting in Austin. The current project list has been updated by subsequent Commission Minute Order actions.
Project Types
Less than 15 months after approval, all projects have gone to constructions with the exception of two that bids will be accepted on within the next year.

I received this pack from a member here who wanted me to paint it for him.
It's a Bobamaker (arguably the best pack available)
He had started to paint it himself, and was doing a pretty good job too.
But, he wanted it a little more accurate
We worked out a deal and I started painting
I sanded it down & started from the beginning with a new coat of primer
The first pic is how I received it
The second is the Primer shot
The Third is the finished project
