    My apologies everyone. It seems my internet connection is exceedingly slow for some reason. It must be the Hurricane in Texas. You know how they route everything and outsource everything...well I am thinking my internet connection has been outsourced and re-routed through Texas. Grrrr.... I...

    That is so cool. I will say that 4 cylinder power is a whole new experience. I really am pleased with the 212 now. And a four cylinder Sukhoi...well, that is absolutely a winning combination.

    She's on the charger everyone. Going to load up around 6'ish tomorrow morning and head out. The weather is supposed to raise the mercury past 100 tomorrow so I want to get this nerve rattling experience neutralized. Will keep you all updated.

    Weeeell..... I seem to have not had such good luck with this one. And yet, the 106 performed beautifully once I got her squared away. Yes the MTW's were the ticket. And following your input, I put the air horn back on her. Simply amazing. But this Quattro jugged red head has me a bit apprehensive.

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    If I may interject here, do not use anything more than 600 grit sandpaper. Something that I learned is that even though we Endeavor to get the nicest finish possible on our painted items, the surface being painted also needs to have some grip for the new paint to hang on to. If anything more...

    The 'What did you do in your workshop tonight?' thread

    I did a real gentle wet sand with 600 wet/dry. But "ONLY" when I was sure I had a heavy enough coverage. The paint sands real quick.

    With the last screw tightened and the last bolt torqued, the Behemoth Yak (2) is now complete. I think it took me longer to get it outside for photos than it did to finish up the last minute items. I chose not to open up the lower rows of louvers at this time for a couple of reasons. One being...
