I beg your pardon sir? It most certainly is not. :lol:

yeah i get lucky once in awhile and come up with a great idea, unfortunately im really bad with hand tools and don't have the patients to sand properly... that makes turning ideas into reality mostly hit or miss with me.

I've been thinking about trying to figure out a way to make one of these, and you've gone and done it for me. Seems like a great method. Thanks.

yeah sure go ahead and translate it. Just make sure i am credited somewhere as the original author, and go ahead and put your name in as the translator. i have no problem with that. also feel free to distribute this wherever and however you want, except by selling it in any way shape or form.

Good work on the tension tool.
I think you misread the dog's expression, he's saying "where's my root beer"

yeah my dog is a goof. he was running around today, which we usually keep him cooped up in the kitchen (he has a doggie door to get outside though). and he ran into the office and picked up the trash can and brought it to me and laid it at my feet, which is what he does when he wants you to throw something to he can play with it.

Speaking of archiving, is someone keeping track of all the great homebrew guides on these forums? I've already seen three or four and I've only been here less than a week.
