Hey all, been awhile, thought I'd drop in say hey. Lifes been pretty hosed up since my daughter passed, I'm just going to write this year off as "CRAP." I think the last time I got here was right before we went to colorado for a little vacation. Turned crap, my oldest daughter had to get her appendix removed. So when we finally came home I went back to work for about a week. Then on a day off I decided to work on my father in laws house for a bit, cutting a board with my dewalt 12" compound miter saw, yeah the big one with a carbide blade. Thought it might be fun to do this

Fourteen years of my life doing construction and never lost a digit till now. They were able to save the end of the finger. Don't feel crap in it and it looks pretty screwed up, at least I can still dig in my nose with it. They had to coterize(spelling?) the end of the bone shut and sew the finger nail back on. But now its pretty well all healed up.
Then here a couple of weeks ago I ran into one hell of a deal for my nephew. He has wanted a little truck that we could play with, drop it, bag it, maybe a stereo in it. Well I found him a 94 nissan with 187 K on it for $500. Tires still have the little tits and AC blows colder than a witches tit. Powers mirrors and extended cab. Body has little dings here and there but nothing we can't take our time fixen. Motor purrs like a kitten and runs like a top. Well heres a pic or two of it.

Not bad for a 15 years olds first truck. Already drop the rear 3" just waiting for some time to drop the front. Well I'll try to drop in a little more often from time to time. Later guys
