Used them all the time on the C-130's. You can do single wires also if you use the aircraft/car fuselage as a ground. There is 20 miles of wire on a 130, sure as hell saved time.
Stop in for a cup of coffee

They have thumbs. They're just very selective about their uses.
karl - The buy it now doesn't ship 'til January??
I think I'll try my luck at the auction one first.

I think they call it weed
Other than a few clingons, mine are down. But there is a big Maple at neighbors line that is still dropping on my back yardThey're still hanging on half the trees here! Hackberry, birch, lindens all still have green on them
No escaping that. Even building one of these on the cheap aint cheep, Ask me how I know...
Good Morning
So, drinking coffee and starting to back read to get up to speed. In the meantime, good morning all. Have to spend the day working outside again today. 21* and frosty.

Good morning. For the time being the NWS seems to be convinced we will get some rain here mid week. Eliminations should begin at Famosa at 9. For the sake of the track operators I hope they have more spectators than yesterday. Hard to make money with only a dozen cars in the spectator parking lot. I am convinced for future Famosa excursions motorized personal transportation is the ticket. Golf carts aplenty, pit bikes everywhere, I even saw 1 racing go kart with a very tame little Honda on it. I'm thinking either a racing bar stool or a racing ice chest

That last one would be a great way to get the Cops and FBI at your door.

That reminds me. There was a large contingent of Jr Dragsters there yesterday and something new to me Jr Comp. They appeared to be enlarged Jr Dragsters with 4 cylinders and more tire 85mph on their shortened track. I have to research that.
Got a few things put away, couple more and shop will be ready for a new mess.
Not a lot booked for next week.

Just got of the phone with the bodyshop and the relief i feel knowing that they will take on my Duster and that the price agreed on is one that i can handle and including freight is enormous and the car is not even close to being there yet,just been so long time trying to find a good place to get the job done. Now i can finaly start going forward with everything else that i need to get going on!
