Oh DG, I know you are teasing and ya don't have to stop, I can take it. :thumbsup:

I'm looking forward to meeting you and yours at LCGII too.

Skip Thanks! I'm not worried, thats what they make sandpaper for right?

Cablerunners, I wish I could make a house call to Portland :yes:

I bet its not as hot there as it is here.

Edit... Crap , I have to work this weekend so you are going to be spinning in circle for awhile...

BTW, Who's Norm Abram? Sounds familiar...

Don't you dare rush on my account. You take your time and do another fine job on the other side. That is totally awsome. I want to see it in person one day.

Are you serious about Norm Abram? I think I spelled it right.
He is from "This Old House" and "The New Yankee Workshop". Like one of the top woodworkers around. I think he would give you a thumbs up on that fender.

You mean you're NOT supposed to write on the wood that's getting covered, sanded or painted? I use it like paper, albeit rather thick paper. :twisted:

Excellent Job Mary K, I love watching your build.

Dooner, I know who that guy is now....I was thinking he was some newscaster...

No worries I don't rush anything...I take to many smoke breaks. :lol:

I hope my posts and build pics inspire others

MK they sure do. I've been having problems with fenders, so I've been looking really really closely at yours.

WHO'S NORM ABRAMS????? :laughter:

He would have had a special fender trim tool for that job of yours. He has a special tool for everything. No, seriously, EVERYTHING.

Norm is the real-life person that Al on Home Improvement was patterned after. He has a beard, and almost always wears plaid shirts.

I think Norm has every tool known to man. I call it the Norm method when I drill pilot holes with one drill and use another to drive the screws. No changing bits back and forth.

You guys know that Norm started his first few shows with a ShopSmith?? Not much else, either!! Sponsors are truely a wonderful thing, I guess!!!
