Post by: BobD on February 27, 2019, 03:36:50 PM: Just an idea.....As much as I enjoy watching projects in progress and the completed builds on this forum, I would also like to put some faces with the names on these models. Maybe some of you would be hesitant about posting a personal photo, but for me it would just make the site just that more enjoyable! A RECENT photo (not your 1st grade or graduation pic) would be best. So here's mine - taken in early February in Arizona; right now I'm a little sorry we're still not there.....Its freezing here back home with 57 inches of snow since we left!

As far as I know, this is the latest photo of me (that I know about) taken last fall. This was a few minutes before I strapped in and did (tried) some of that Steve Kinser stuff. This is fun but I have to admit, when I finish I have to have help getting out of this thing. Thats what happens when you put a geezer on a go kart. Sometimes it is extra hard to get out when I am hanging upside down but that only happens when the Grandson does some stupid Danica move in front of me but it helps keep my welding skills up to par.

Ha !! No, Lefty, I didn't call Schrader that, but years ago he did give me some good advise about what not to do with my fingers when I was working on a running engine in the area near the fan blade.............. :-\
