Cruise town, check out cars, and look for girls was ALL I wanted to do when I was sixteen.

“Word” is slang for positive affirmation, as in “word, brah.”

Catched is really the word you except me to work with???

Thanks for your input Bill. That makes sense, and confirms some of my suspicions. Especially regarding mist coats.?

This is something I’ve always been a little confused about. You hear the these terms thrown around a lot when talking about painting. I Think it’s pretty clear what “wet” coats are, but not as much when talking about tack coats and mist coats. While I do understand their purpose, and that they are very thin, I’m not really sure how they should actually look when laying them down. Should a mist coat actually look dull and dry? Or should it appear wet, but just thinner than a true wet coat? I’ve been laying them down very thin and almost dry (still tacky though) but I’m wondering if that doesn’t cause more orange peel. Should they be wetter looking when they go on? i hope I’m being clear here. I have a feeling this will be a very subjective concept. Also, this can apply to either rattle cans or airbrush.

Agreed with what others have said above. One thing I’ve started doing different lately is fixing the seam on the oil pan, but leaving it on the transmission. Some 1:1 transmissions have a casting seam, so in my opinion leaving it visible on the plastic is acceptable. I will usually lightly sand it just to tone it down some, but leaving it visible. This only applies to the transmission though. The oil pan will always be fixed.

Enjoy those nuts!?

Situation update- I’m posting something here right…..now.?

Triplets. Definitely.?

You have a Nigerian prince for a relative too?? And here I thought I was the only one! Say, maybe we’re related!?

Paradise is NOT where I’ve spent the day today.

His early comedy albums were his best work in my opinion. Absolutely hilarious! RIP Bob. We’ll miss you.

Popcorn shrimp…. Oh great, now I’m hungry!

Services might be lacking if you say to your wife “fix me a sandwich, wench.”

Laundry day is when I lose all my loose change and guitar picks.

Excellent decision buddy! Looking forward to seeing it all wrapped up.?

That’s just beautiful. Your color choices is spot on.?. Great looking work.

I don’t think you can go wrong either way Carl. Which do you like better? Being a resto mod theme this year, pretty much anything goes.?

Mowing is my main chore for this evening.

After some trial and error for scaling, I got the wheels and tires printed. And here’s a very rough mock up-

Having some ice cold lemonade might bring you some relief.

Kind of mean, isn’t he?
