    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    That is crazy since I almost need a XXL because of my palm. The XL Cabelas should fit you pretty well, might even get by with a large. My fingers are SUPER long. Damn and I thought I was a big boy!!

    I will grab a pair Tuesday.. And snap you a pic..probably not what your thinking not like a bulletproof vest The company that supplies them for whatever reason has been packaging us washed ones that wear out much faster... The new ones I like to keep around for the people with seniority..

    At that temp I am fine with a pair of 9mm latex gloves if I am only outside for 3 hours or less.Puts things into perspective when I say something isn't warm, lol Must be tough bending your fingers with a centimeter of latex around them. Sounds like a good grip work out. If you want I can snatch you up some of the kevlar and latex.. I was talking about not sure if they would be good for what you need but I can get them all day long.

    Help with windows 8

    LOL ... The bata is out free to try...As far as being "user friendly" pretty much like windows 8...I think they focused more on It being used for Tablets,ect..that is were your "drag&drop issues come in...IMO, I think they should have different platforms for PC's and Notebooks,tablets or whatever.. They did that to try to fix problems with accidental "drag and drop" "copy&paste" ect.. on tablets, notebooks and such..windows 10 is more just app friendly IMO..

    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    Lol, unless it's really wet and I'm touching metal 30 degrees barely needs gloves.Same; unfortunately I am usually touching metal and there's a 50/50 chance of it being wet. I'm also required to wear gloves anytime I'm working with my hands at the plant. I got a good hook up on these elite Klim gloves. One of the latex we are supplied is called TENACTIV not bad really....But not good for welding,I have had them melt to my hand...LOL

    Help with windows 8

    I think that is another possible fix enabling the UAC in the reg... from The HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE tweak I gave...Not for sure though I am not as familiar with the registry as I am with the older platforms..

    Lol, unless it's really wet and I'm touching metal 30 degrees barely needs gloves. I use kevlar gloves when welding, they are warm but hard to move in and the itch the hell out of my face like I been rolling around in fiberglass...

    Help with wood choice?

    I built some enclosures out of 1" acrylic (plexiglass) in the mid 90's for some Focal woofers in a car audio install. It seemed to sound fine, but is a lot of work, took forever, I ruined a ton of material and spent hours buffing out scratches... It was also expensive then, I can only imagine now... Acrylic was a going thing in that age for show in my area anyways.. seemed to be not much more flexing than MDF.. But the finishing was a pain! But that was the neon light era ...Saying that I feel old!! Clear enclosure neon lights was the trend.
