It may seem like a small time frame (3 weeks), but I have been dreaming about these things for a long time.

Actually 3 weekends about 40 hours so far, should be another 5 to six this weekend to paint and install drivers.
:edit:
I have had a lot of interest in them, but people want to hear them before they make that kind of commitment...
AF, you have any tips with using automotive paint for this application? Do I need to thin it down a little more or will it be ok out of the can?

Remember to hold the gun 6-8" away at a 45 degree cut as well.

2.eBay took down one of my auctions because I included the word "not" in the auction title. That's so gay beyond gay.
3. Tomorrow is my birthday. Friday I was supposed to go out to dinner with my family and girlfriend. The girlfriend has a sorority activity ... which I just heard about yesterday. Her plan?
Eat dinner with my family, go straight to the sorority function right after.
or
Get fined $30 by the sorority and spend dinner and the evening with me.
I said fuck it all. I don't want her to stuff her face and leave, I don't want the pressure, I don't want to feel rushed. The $30 thing is a fucking joke. I see that as Heather having to pay her sorority to see me on my birthday.
I'm not pissed at her, there's no way she meant for this to happen ... but this thing she belongs to isn't a job ... it's supposed to be for fun, and it consumes everything around her.
Either way, it's pathetic and I give up.

"Global Express" is a $35 shipping method, I asked $14 for Parcel Post Airmail, the method listed in the auction..

Thanks, I have never done boxes either, but I have some experience with body panels and such with primer, never with color. My uncle would never let me spray color on his 69 Goat for some reason :dunno:
