Thanks to the Dr. for a great time and some great knowledge. Thanks for the music around the fire. You play a mean coum-by-aah! Also thanks for crashing and breaking my Zagi plane....I hope your a better Doctor then a pilot.
Big thanks to Rich for the buddy deal on the Trani. THANKS! I had a great time hanging out with everyone, talking shit, telling lies and drinking around the fire. It really was a great time and amazing we rebuilt that many boxes at once. Sorry to JP for directions snafuu! Looks like like I'm getting a parts car this week. If there is anything you need PM me and I'll hook you up. There were a few things left behind... A Snap-on 3/8 drift punch. 2 good size cresent wrenches. a red chair If you want any of these PM me and we'll figure out how to get them to you. Anytime any of you want to use my shop/lift, your more than welcome! |

Its already been said, but thanks to all. John for being a great host and Dr for the teaching style (that I found to be the best part of the event).When my kids were young, I was a 4H leader and we used the learn by teaching program. The older kids taught the younger ones and they re-learned the subject over and over. It appears the style works for adults too.
Sorry I ran out Saturday night. It took me about three hours to get home to my own bed. The time past quickly as I listened to Art Bell on the radio most of the way (but on different channels). I had so much fun that i want to think of another clinic (see Teener Tuesday) |

Just wanted to add my voice to the chorus of thanks!
John, that's one hell of a place you have there and I'm not sure you ever want to give anyone really good directions. With all of your hospitality, you'd likely end up with a really large extended family camping out there. And, to the Dr., yeah you *were* laughing at me. But it was awfully nice of you to stop laughing long enough to say you weren't. Now that's proper bedside manner! Nate, thanks for the helping hand and the great parts deal - check's on its way. Everyone else, thanks for the camaraderie and help (too many of you to list, since I didn't even get everyone's name). You made the whole experience worthwhile. Dave |

Here's what I've got, Dr. Evil: A is the two seals you gave me to use between the int. plate and the main body (duh) B is the black seal I put in between the cone and the int plate (you can kinda see it) Am I okay?

I snagged a bad 1st slider from Drew before I left. We will have one of those tools in the PNW should anyone need one. I will have to weld one up before I tear mine down.

There wasn't ONE moment of anyone staying "focused" to have videos that were informational. The camp fire is where the most informative stuff happened....and NO videos were allowed.

Thanks guy's westgl We were asked nicely by some very large men with no necks to sign paperwork saying we wouldn't document the process. Just kidding! Having way to much fun to do that. I was going to take notes and pictures but after awhile I figured the Doc would probably make a video to help pay his student loans off so I would just buy one then. Please make the video, I'll put the wig on for you! hahahaaaaa! |
