Yeah, but I've never cared what you think.

Plus, I don't want to give away my secrets.

I like to see pics that show a design evolution. It's all about the development process, the try, fail and try again approach. By following the genesis to the finished product, a great deal can be learned, especially why things that should/could work, and don't because there is a better way to do/make things that are learned along the way.
An added bonus to that process is that, no matter how smart you think you are or how thoroughly you think you have every angle covered, someone else will usually catch or know something you don't about the very thing you are trying to accomplish. A contribution from that person usually makes the process or product better.

File it under "re-inventing the wheel"...

Nope. Life happened today, so I got the car covered for a lightning storm (which never came) and that was it.

This is the major reason I like popping in on his how too threads, the been there done that approach and being an old fart with jack of all trades, fingers in the pie experience, I like to interject what I have learned when I can.

I always like the re-inventing the wheel approach, makes me think more, keeps those calciifying brain cells sparking.

5 to 7 inches of rain expected between this afternoon and tomorrow, so the earliest I can have pics up is Sunday afternoon.

Just so y'all know.

Newbie, not hardly, But Random *******????

lol

kenn

Yeah, especially with my forum rep. It's not like I'm a newbie or some random ******* that just hops on here. Notice I started putting up pics when it was just for my personal project, and people showed interest in getting them. I'm not CP Racing.

I'm working on them right now, hopefully I will have several sets complete by the end of the day to give the doubters a big **** you.



And thank you.[/QUOTE]

The noob doesn't know how to post on an internet forum and is cursing at the positive criticism he must endure as a result...

I thought we had agreed not to bump this thread until pics were posted?

I agreed to no such thing. If you can't make an enclosure in 3-4 months, then dam.

I had the same problem trying to make copies of my boxes, it came down to not having enough time/space to make them. I never had much luck finding someone local to make copies either. working 6 dayz a week now won't even let me try again. Of course mine will only hold 2 8's and not the 10's for these. oh well. I know how it is having to many projects!

I think I'll have to start on this project myself and see what I can do. Maybe sell these things out right and make some people some boxes.
