Noticed my camera image counter now shows having pic numbers in the low 7 digits. Seems like I was in the mid-sixes just a short time ago. Those gigs sure do stack up. 3_8 radius die.jpg making an aluminum nose with air intakes 3_8 radius die working.jpg making curved radius for main air intake

I was just talking to Plotner the other day - he was to blame for getting me going, and he knows it. He'll turn 88 soon. (He welded up that shattered engine cylinder on the twin-igniton Bugatti Royale, and was the only dual-rated Master Craftsman HAC ever designated.) I guess working so long with so many excellent craftsmen who generously shared their knowledge with me gave me the willingness to share the wealth. I've suffered the developer's curse for a while now, and I'm deeply glad I pursued some of the odd tools and methods that have come about. I'm very happy to have been some help to the craft.

I am just back from the aluminum car thing in San Antonio, after the Denver fun. tacking nose panels Attachment 30031 after tacking, welding complete. Attachment 30032 I had two essential things in San Antonio this time that I had not had together at the same time in many years - my favorite flux and clean (non_airgas) acetylene.
