I'm assuming no more BPs? I've been out of town for a while.
We will be having a build day next Sunday. Got plans for that Saturday. PM me about coming up to do a build. We've been running the build party for months now.
Need to find some time off of work to come down and mill out my last lower. That and to bring you all of that extra stuff too lol.
just found some 'gold' anodized parts in lab, and I am tempted to try that for my next part. It has a 15 ft gold look to it. Any closer than 15 feet and it looks a bit hazy (matte) and not quite the same as a polished metal.
How to lift 650lbs by your self! Just got a new toy! Once I get it set op we can have another build party!

that looks familiar, Rong Fu or Grisly?
I had to lift the damned head with my bare hands and place it ontol the column while standing on a damned ladder. Good stuph, you'll enjoy it. It has enough torque to peel aluminum like wax.
I got it at an estate sale and I think its harbor freight. AKA Central Machinery. I had to figure out how to lift it and googled how to lift a mill/drill. Low and behold I found out all you have to do is drill a hole in the bottom of the belt cover and run a chain through the top!
