OK, so I told everyone I brewed my own beer, wine and mead right. Well since I couldn't work on my jeep due to the insane humidity here right now, I decided to try something. I was just sitting here in my apartment board as hell and thought i'd try to make a still out of stuff I just had laying...

Have to put this project up until Feb 20th. The humidity here now that it's typhoon season is insane. I do a small section of fiber glass and it takes about two days for the resin to cure. Thats with a hotter mix to. So I'm taking the moods of my wheel wells with me when we deploy. I'll work on...

Thanks a lot. This project is just taking forever but it'll be finished someday. I just noticed you're in WA. My unit is heading to WA in a little bit for dry dock there. It's also where I'm picking up my next project... an old 67 Chevelle. I haven't been to WA since 05. I was statione there...

OK so I've had a little problem with the boxes for the subs. You would think I would've learned my lesson from the last time I got caught in the rain.... but no. I had to go and do it again. This time I just got done with cutting all the pieces for both sub boxes, mounted every piece but the top...

Man, you weren't kidding when you said you were paranoid about electronics. Not many people would've added the filters. Good call, I like it. Ever think about adding a temp probe/switch? That way they would kick on and off automatically.

Well if anyone stops by Guam on their way to the states you're more than welcome to go diving/spearing with me and some friends. Just give me a heads up first.

500?! Was that including the clutch or just for the work? I've been trying to get stationed out there for years. There' only four of us coasties out there though, so It's a fierce battle to get one of those positions. Closest I could get was Guam. So now I have to take leave to get there. Oh...

I figured it would be bigger in OKI with all the active duty guys there and relatively small size of the island. How's the hobby shops there? They just shut one of ours down. Now there's only one on the whole island, and it's 24 miles away on a different base on the other side of the island.

Yo Gekless, you're in Japan right? How is the scene over there for car audio? How do people react to hearing it/ seeing it? Is it like it is back in the states? Just always wondered about stuff like that. You know, how different countries/ cultures compare to home.

I'll be looking into your company for my next project now. Wont be until for another couple months though.

Very awesome Idea. I wish more companies were as forward thinking as you.

Hells yeah. I've been a diver for almost 11 years now. Even went through Navy Dive School. I didn't finish it though because my knee blew out on me. Something about 30 yard sprints on the beach while carrying someone on you shoulders.... Not too good on your joints. You're diving in Ohio? OMG...

Sure did. Then covered it in some bondo to keep it from melting too much and finished it off with fiberglass. Once done I used some acetone to melt all the foam. I was then left with a 1/4" thick fiberglass shell.

There's a fusible link in there originally. I was thinking it was there for a reason so I should probably put a fuse in there. I only got the 180 amp; since the system I'm building isn't as big as some of the guys on here. Plus when I'm using the trail welder or air compressor I wont have the...

You still have some of that OFC? If so I'll be e-mailing you tomorrow.
