Lb - no, we are here. If we were there it wouldn't be there it would be here.

 

Works on my 6 year old g-daughter!!

Sorry Popeye ---- gotta be glass.

 

Back at work, we had a lot of equipment with see- through enclosures and about every 2 years some guy would show up with some new wonder material guaranteed to be scratch PROOF.  Usually some new polymer treated with cosmic rays or radioactive fairy dust.  We'd try a sample, throw it away after 8 months and go back to glass.

 

Hell, even my eyeglasses are glass.  This allows me to wipe off the sawdust with 220 grit paper and none the worse for wear.

Can somebody tells me where it goes all this small talk?????

We are here and not there and then we go to glasses from glass because you can sand it with 200 grit sandpaper??????

I thought we were talk about a glass case for that great build of  Augie.

I need my tom-tom…..( if you know what that is, otherwise ask Wayne, he use it this whole month…) :D

Amazing,  Zen and Nietzsche and Steven Wright have finally met on Augie's esteemed build....and during a countdown, yet.    It does boggle the mind.  :unsure:  

 

I think, therefore I'll go have a beer. post-76-0-56322600-1375308647.gif

Are we having fun yet?

 

Personally, I'm goin' fishin' tomorrow as a tune up for next weeks' annual, week-long  trip to the Western slope.  Hope the mark is hit by the time I get home tomorrow to start packing.

Nice try Ferit. What Andy said.  Besides, Augie's next ship is the Confederacy.   A bigger, more complex project.  It ought to be worth a lot more than 100 pages. :P

 

Augie, I hope no-one hits me....

Maybe we can linked this build log with the Confed build log?

Or prepare Augie's pc so it looks like he is creating a new build log only he goes further on this one???

I think I know a nice price for the first one who came at page 100………one of the fish that Augie catch….so that person stays empty handed  :D  :D  :D  :D  :D  :D

Or a statue of a moose or maybe a box of rigging spiders?

Also a thought to keep in mind this log was started before the big crash so it was restarted and the beginning summarized.  The Confederacy will begin on the new site and will have derailing side conversations from the beginning.  Chances is are it may push 200 pages.

I was afraid someone would remember that Dan.  The old log was around 50 pages as I recall.....but there were less posts/page.

 

Carry on ------ I'm outta here for today :D

I hope to resume working on my ship today. I spent the day cleaning up the garage/workshop, it was a major disaster.

 

Darn! That did not flip the page.... :D

 

It was a late flip, one more to go...
