VBWS, Virginia Breakfast Wrench and Suds (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

O.K. Here's what we are planning for Saturday Nov. 4.

Morning - Breakfast and Tech Session / Afternoon - Suds and Whatever

7:30AM ... Meet at the Amphora Diner in Herndon for Breakfast.
8:30AM ... Off to MATSYS (roots garage) for a Teener TECH & TIG Session
a) tear down a 1.8L "for the hell of it"
(IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) Anybody who has a Teener part or tool or whatever to
make or fix that requires welding can bring it with
them. As long as it's mild steel, stainless, aluminum, or copper
.
Noonish .... Breakout the grill (dogs, burgers and chips).
1PM ...... Back to the Tech Session, cooler with Suds.

It's kinda like what Jim Kelly and I normally do on the weekend except a few more teeners around this time. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif)

I was also thinking we could drive up to PA Friday night and tow EVIL's car
back to Sterling and get it running for him on Saturday as well!
Just kidding Evil...... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) .

Everyone's welcome, all genders, let me know if your comin' and I'll keep a list of attendees going on this post!

Terry,
Certainly you can make it to Sterling! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)
Come up Friday night and stay at my place if you like.
That way you won't miss the early morning breakfast.
Did you get those new calipers mounted, bled, and stopping!

rebuilt calipers mounted
new front brake lines installed (rubber and hard)
new 19mm master cylinder installed

brakes 90% bled - I can lock up the right tires. I should be able to finish it all up pretty soon.

I'd love to come, but will have to pass this time. We'll have to plan to meet at your place in the near future :-)

AW crap, the timing is good, teh distance sucks ass, and my car doesnt work. I may just have to go (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumb3d.gif) This will be the day after my big renal exam (the one many fail and have to repeat). I aint working on anyones car, though. I think it is time for some east coast tough love where I start making ya'll fix yer own damn cars (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Hey Root, I should have my holy 914/6 heat exchangers in my posetion by then. Wanna try to see about welding them up and or fabricating some new ones? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

If someone wants to come up and tow my car down, I would not stop them (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad2.gif)

Just got home from hockey practice!
Great to see some interest coming in already.

Set November 4th aside for VbWs! My wife's doin' the cooking so I can (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif)

Evil, I love tiggin' SS. Do you know what type 304, 316, or special alloy?
It's always good to have a test part (setup / tuneup piece). So if you can get me the gage thickness and type SS that would be very helpful. Don't worry 'bout the weld supplies those are on-the-house (I got plenty of argon, tunsten electrodes, cup insulators, and filler rod). (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smoke.gif)


Oh!? by-the-way what's a "big renal". I think I might have one of those, myself. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

They are not SS or I would not need to have them welded. I was pondering making some SS boxes....well talk. As they stand, though, they are the oreiginal steel and in need of repair so I dont freeze my ass off this winterish season should the thing actually work (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

O.K. so mild steel, all rusty right? We'll need some similar guage patches then right?
Just bring 'em we'll figure out something, no problem.
Make sure you study HARD, so you pass your exam GOOD!
I'll be down here in Virginia (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drunk.gif)

Va beach eh? I'll be down your way early next week for the Social D. show Mon night. Gonna stay over night and go see an old friends new shop tues. As for the meet on Nov 4.....If you guys ever make plans like a month in advance I might make one of these outings (IMG:style_emoticons/default/flipa.gif) I might just have to blow off responsibilities and head up (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Or maybe I'll never show up and become the new Miles. Then when no one likes me I'll change to Miles clear, and when that doesn't werk I'll go back to being Miles classic . (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) Head hurt bad.................

You met Evil Scotty B. He goes places I should be posing as me and pissing people off (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) Seriously though no you haven't met me. I was in Hatteras that week and couldn't make it. I have yet to make it to any event, maybe because I fear what may happen to me ............

Huh. Sterling VA is only about 100 miles or so from me. I wonder if I am free on the 4th.

Of course my welding project would require bringing the rotesserie...
