Although it's yet undetermined wether or not he likes to wear his mothers panties.

Yes, but if it weren't for farm animals I'd have no social life at all.

Slept, slept a bit more, then slept some more. I think I've caught this nasty Swine Flu. It's possible it's just the regular flu, but it's hitting Corpus Christi pretty hard, so...

Sweet!

It's a rather large affair in my neck of the woods.

Are you planning on modding them with Stilton, or perhaps a nice aged Gouda?

Leave it alone Steve, just leave it alone.

Hmmm, I think that first one would look really cool!

Cool! They were only meant to be temporary until I could locate something better. Now that's no longer an isue, thanks Nate! It's amazing what you can miss when you step away to use the Men's Room for a few minutes.

I think if I had a penis aimed at my ass the cinnamon burn would be the least of my worries. Even if it were a small penis!

Best wishes there. I'll hope for a perfect result and fast recovery.

Thanks Nate, It's been a lot of fun to build. With Marc as support it won't be my last project. And yeah, The DIYfest is definitely a fun way to build! Here's the faceplate... We did power it up, but it blew fuses immediately. I left the amp with Marc, and he thinks he's found the issue.

I've not seen those before. The chrome carriage bolt might look good with your power switch. A stainless allen head bolt would also look good.

These fellas want to meet you!

Ah, simple solution... I'll trade you.

The blurryness was actually intended to somewhat mask the incredible projects Marc has laying around in various states of completion, and thereby promote a sense of intrigue and wonder. I guess that didn't convey well across the net however.

"To everything turn, turn, turn. There is a season turn, turn, turn..." What are the differences between the two? I like the old, massive, heavy beasts, but they're getting harder to find.

I find armpit hair a great place to practice this technique. Great work Nate!

Well this weekend brought the F5 very close to being complete. Luvdunhill, Pabbi1 and myself had a DIYfest at Marc's place, where the boards were wired up and the amp was powered up for the first time. Unfortunately the amp kept blowing fuses immediately upon fire up. Marc is hosting the amp for further trouble shooting, and may already have the problem figured out. Shouldn't be too long for some initial impressions. For pics please refer to the Austin meet impressions thread... http://www.head-case.org/forums/meet-impressions/6219-diy-mini-meet-austin.html

Pabbi1 and myself were graciously hosted by luvdunhill, wife and family for an overnight DIYfest in Austin this weekend. Great food, great fun and even a little bit of DIY work thrown in for good measure. My project was the Pass F5 I'm building. I had yet to wire the boards and run the initial fire up, which I wasn't comfortable doing without an experienced DIYer present. Marc was tugged back and forth between Al's project and mine, without complaint one. He didn't even attemp to work on his own extensive list of extremely eye catching projects, choosing instead to devote his time to us. For that and the great hospitality by the entire luvdunhill family (yes the children are tobacco officianados too) a big, big thank you from me! Al and were put up in high fashion in the living room, where Al challenged me to a snorring contest. If there's any doubt as to the victor, please note the extensive baggage under Al's eyes the next day. While I myself look as fresh as a daisy, and ready for runway modeling for Calvin Cline. F5 close to initial power up. Part of Al's tasty project. A real guys estrogen free zone (graciously allowed by Mrs. Luvdunhill) Oh my! It seems my photography is on par with my DIY skills. Sorry for the blurry pics.

Did you get the Bosch folding stand? [url=http://www.toolbarn.com/product/bosch/TS2000/]Bosch TS2000 Gravity-Rise

Yes the veneer glue will seal the outside just fine, as well as the finish on top of the veneer. I've also used fiberglass resin to seal wood, and have had great success with it. Great looking veneer joints! I may start farming out work to you!

How is that a problem? I mean a man can't have too many power tools, it's impossible.

Mmmm, Spam!

Why is that? They certainly look good enough to be permanant, or do you have other plans? Mmmmm, Cherry!
