I didn't work on it anymore, I'll let you sell the "smack" out of yours, and I'll take my time and get the DIY anodizing locked in.

Anyone in the Portland area able to carpool to Richland??

PUBLIC SAFETY ANNOUNCEMENT:

Be on the lookout for a crazed maniac who preys on old people and small children. Goes under the guise of IMAC flyer looking for a ride to Richland. He is to be considered highly ridiculous and should not be approached. Most recent photo:

Yes, I'm going to Richland

I was the beta site for the direct link Major Smackdown Tailwheel. The setup and wheel work great. I've bent and broke several tailwheel wires and the unit John made is going to eliminate those problems. If anybody is having trouble with their tailwheel talk to John. As my kid would say the Smackey Tailwheel is the bomb.

It's about 200 - 210 miles, all freeway. Driving the speed limit 3hrs, I think you'll make it 2-1/2.

The way Aron drives - I think 1.5 hours - if he's not incarcerated.

Dang, Bill - I know you do it regulary - but that makes for a long day with an early morning. Nobody else you can get to substitute for you ? (I'm sure that crossed your mind already).

Thanks for the compliements on the tail wheel guys. I take pride in delivering a product that people like the looks of, and the value of.

It's driving a small school bus and first off you have to be on staff at the school and I am, assistant softball coach, then you need cirtain training and to have passed a couple of tests. The young ladies that are the cheer coaches think the bus is too big for them to drive but mostly my wife wants me to do it since my grand daughter is on the squad. So it's hard to get a replacement.

I totally understand - when you make a commitment you want to keep it. I just feel for you putting in those long days that start super early. Drive safely man !
