Thanks guys! I really appreciate it. I started my new job today. I'm on lunch right now, I work for the apartment complex that I'm living in and I'm out cutting grass right now. I'm basically a grounds keeper. As long as they dont get rid of me that means i now have restored income for the build! WAHOO!
TURBINES TO SPEED!

So its Saturday and I'm working on the Tumbler. I'm sanding the filler that we applied a few days ago. My new job has muscles hurting that i didnt even know i had. BUT I'm loving it. . Dave that glucosamine you suggested to me has worked miracles on my joint pain here recently! Thank you very much!
So far the surface is coming out AWESOME. I should be putting a coat of paint on it in area's prepped by the end of the day. I'll take pictures before the day is over hopefully and post them here for everyone to bore themselves with!

he turned two on the 16th. Here is the cake i made for his birthday.

And a video of him opening a the gift from Terry (batman4reals). Just uploaded to youtube, so it might take a minute for it to work.
My plan is to have his go cart completed by his 3rd birthday. Lets hope.
I got some sanding done today, in random area's. i panted it with a semi-black to see what it looked like after i did the sanding in those area's. I have clean up to do in tight area's, and its apparent i need something to get into the deep grains of the wood. I'm thinking some etching primer.
Heres some pictures. Overall its coming out better than before, lines are becoming sharper, and details are being more defined. i'm getting excited!

Shaggy (6/14/2010)
It really looks different hanging on my wall.
looks like a cow. haha.
That's looking mighty fine brother. I'm putting making one of those in my TO DO list. I'm calling it "The COW by Shaggy" and putting it on a wall in the office, cow paint pattern included. You're an inspiration brother. Thank you.

Thanks very much! I'm looking forward to you getting started on your build! It will be great to exchange idea's and complain about the same hard-to-build area's lol.
