I know the feeling. I have a stack about 8 ft tall in the spare room:huh I hope that my daughter never gets ahold of them. Probably 2 trash bags of peanuts and a pile of the plastic pillows.....

[anywhereEx]

shims ( 1/2' one and 2 little ones for the second spring and 1/4 and a tiny one for the zps spring) If I am not mistaken. Or just post a pic with a close up and I can tell you if it is right. Also the clip was down 14 notches.

Hey Papp.....I got something that will get the stain out of that carpet!


That's my carpet:D Shhh though I told the wife they will never come out that way I do not have to clean it every time I drag a engine in the house;) Plus it is just another good reason for her not to argue me doubling the size of the shop

[Pappy]

[anywhereEx]

That carpet is the reason the rest of my house has hardwood floors.

[anywhereEx]

Is that shimmering Candy blue? If so are you having luck with it?

yep...ive done about 20 frames in it and so far so good. i bought 50 pounds of it in march and its all gone:confused2 its a pretty popular color

[anywhereEx]

I can not make my mind up between that and prismatic black. :ermm: :mad:

[Pappy]

prizmatic is ok...i geuss its what ever you like. i try to steer people to a solid color frame and then get wild with all the lil parts. i geuss it runs 50/50 with most of the frames i do....as to a solid color vs a translucent. i love the blue and red trans colors myself....but i think the old 400 will get a solid color frame this time.

[quader400]

can you post a pic of a dark blue that is kinda shinny at the same time. thanks.

[Pappy]

this is the only pic i have right now...its metalic blue on the main spring. i have to get new pics soon of all these colors:ermm:
