  1. I have a huge flat drawer file under it. I have a lot of old car ads and other paperwork in there. I do have a little space between the file and my desk. I just look at the depth of the "booth" and look at it as wasted space.
  2. nice job on all of them. Baldwin/motion would be proud!! getting ideas when I do my ZL/1-COPO/Yenko triple threat, yea, only half od what you have got going on. anyways, went back to see what color green you used and could not find it, can you fill me in on what you used, thanks.
  3. nice build. clean. captured the essence of the era very well.
  4. #1 is one way out by the Allman bros. don't have a clue on #2 yet.
  5. ok, that was the 3RD verse, here is the second... She's some kind of demon messing in the glue If you don't watch out it'll stick to you, to you What kind of fool are you?
  6. that's an old picture. where I have the booth now, the compressor will sit on the table next to the booth and I really don't want it there. plus this will keep the noise down a little and I do not have room on the floor. I should say that it is a little single piston compressor.
  7. Keith Emerson Richard Wright Jon Lord Greg Allman I'm running out, and my head is hurting... jan Hammer Greg Rolie
  8. how about Ric Wakeman, Gary Wright, Eddie Van Halen, Liberachi? your gonna make me cheat and look it up..... how about a hint before you reveal the answer?
  9. On a boat in the middle of a raging sea She would make a scene for it all to be ignored
  10. I am not a Stevie Nicks, nor a Fleetwood mack fan..... but.... challenge excepted. don't know why, but my first guess would be Steve Winwood?
  11. nice Tony, glad all worked out and everything is back to normal.
  12. I have a rather large contraption that I use as a paint booth. its and old printer enclosure from long ago, works great, but is very large. counter space is at a premium in any model room, so my question is if I build a little enclosure INSIDE my booth to protect the compressor, can I put the compressor in inside the booth? I would drill a hole for the hose to run out of and make sure its vented so the thing doesn't overheat. is this a viable option or am I just talking out my butt? gonna try to post a picture, we will see.
  13. stand back - not sure if it is just Stevie nicks or fleetwood mac
  14. safety dance - men without hats
  15. great article Gerald, thanks. I have already done this without the article, this will help with the next one. funny, I can do all of this without a hitch and have it come out looking good, but I can't lay even primer down properly, go figure.
  16. darn it!! what in the world made me thing it was whatever the hell I said. kicking myself over that one. and I watched Drew Carey all the time. that was his theme song for a while.
  17. along comes Mary - the association. wow. that's really deep. on the same venue Who's tripping down the streets of the city Smiling at everybody she sees?
  18. HMMM.... check this out. http://www.songlyrics.com/five-stairsteps-lyrics/ but most of the searches come up what you said.... i'm confused.... but we must move on.
  19. little bit tighter - oh-oh.... 5 staircase?, darn, that's not it. it's 5 stair-something.....
  20. yep, you got it.... what a happy song.
  21. dirty white boy - foriegner
  22. heard this on the way in this morning.... We are drinking beer at noon on Tuesday In a bar that faces a giant car wash The good people of the world are washing their cars On their lunch break, hosing and scrubbing As best they can in skirts in suits They drive their shiny Datsuns and Buicks Back to the phone company, the record store too Well, they're nothing like Billy and me, cause
  23. thanks all for your encouragement. as Mike (badluck 13) mentioned, he will bring in some of his builds to our next meeting and I can see THEM first hand and figure out a path I want to take. from what Jessie and JT mentioned, it looks like the snap kit is the way to go for me. thanks for all your help and I will be back with more questions.
  24. that's very cool, good idea. love to see these ideas to try to improve bench organization. as of now, I keep mine in the packages, sort them out by round, square, flat and misl and they label a Pringles container and stuff the packages in the containers, the package sticks out of the Pringles can far enough that I can see the label and I just keep them on the bench.
