  1. I uploaded an album in under 4 min...all there and much quicker.
  2. My question is what is the type of load you need 12v @2amp for ? In a typical camera powered by 2 aa batteries the flash circuit draws 2,2 amps and charges the main capacitor to 750 volts. This is done thru a simple transformer circuit. To give a good answer we need real facts, not "clues". Unless you need a motor you should be able to power things up with a small battery...3 volt lithiums come to mind.
  3. Great answer Tom.....thanks :D
  4. Virgil....yur still mounting the master cylinders upside down(lid goes up) but love the rust........ Reminds me of this one........your seats are nicer though!

  6. Harry will always try....He does make it fun here. I do not agree with the standard Firefox answer, as I use IE8, and do NOT have issues.I just like IE8 better Than Chrome or Mozilla. Keep things current and use a good security program. You can also go to a Mac....got one of those too Glad your back!! :D
  7. What was the matter with Chuck ??? Retouched ????
  8. This is the most important step . If you do not etch the body (blasting or sanding) you might have issues with paint sticking. After a coat of etching primer sand , wash and another coat of etching primer. Now you can apply filler -primer and smooth out. If you did a lot of body work you might use the sealer now. I now shoot my base, white or silver, followed by color and clear.
  9. No shopping cart yet..... Great issue....I started at the Book review, went to resin, and the GIRL in a BIKINI !! :wub: (page 47) Yep..in MCM :P

  22. I use lacquer thinner and it seems to work well, I prime with duplacolor primers. I also use the prereduced colors from coast... What is the difference between Reducer and Thinner ...????
