Gregg Posted March 20, 2008 Author Posted March 20, 2008 Me too! He has been a dormant builder for almost twenty years. His father and I have an interesting history. This guy, and his father, are two very talented builders here in Hawaii. I'm proud to be able to call them friends, and even more so of Jr. as he has started building again, mostly due to my bugging the crapola out of him to build again. I see him every day at his work/job, and I can't wait to see not only build finished (it's over a decade or two old), but see some new stuff from him. Wait to you see the metal window frames for the side windows. He did both sides from aluminum stock, and he's not happy with it!
Gregg Posted March 20, 2008 Author Posted March 20, 2008 Your Honor, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, please note the evidence in front of you, THE BOTTLE IS NOT OPENED!!!!! It was a "Thank You" The names have been changed to protect the uninocent.....
Gregg Posted March 20, 2008 Author Posted March 20, 2008 Just a FYI. This was the last day of our Club Build It In Stages Challenge, and your editor lost to an emailed photo!!!! Thanks, John O!!!!! I still love yah!~ :-) It's all in fun, that's what the hobby is about. That is the truth, and the one thing I love about what I do. I get to meet so many great people all across the country, and world. I can literally stay in any state, city, or probably town across the U.S., as a humble guest and friend of this hobby, and that is what makes the backbone of the mag: We are all family, enjoy our hobby, open our doors, homes, and hearts to each other, and just have fun!!!!! What I get a kick out of is showing up at people's doors, unannounced, thanks to MapQuest, and blow people away!!!!! Plus, going to shows on the sly, or going into hobby shops in out of the way places, is a blast!!!! Now, Gil, GET BACK TO WORK!!!!!!! Sorry, was on a roll, no, not toilet paper roll......
cruz Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 Did you say he didn't like the window trim??? Sounds like another Bill Geary to me, obsessiveness will drive you crazy
