hey ladies. i think i crossed some magic barrier into wrenchwenchism. i was just piddling here and there -learning very slowly and sporadically on small projects (like the valentine's day card I welded for jim last year, hehe). i would have felt like a total poser on this tribe had it not been for having to work on the dukw the past few weeks. it's pretty funny that this beat would turn out to be the thing i learn about engines on. everything's like 3 x the size of a normal car. still, it's been fun and i can claim some ownership now!
