those who know me, know that i am a sucker for family functions....

stayed on the strip till midnight, ( with fam) , chilled with momma chop till 4am, got up at 9am and went to the campgrounds (with the family), fishing, hiking, petting zoo, bounce houses, swiming, cookout, story times of the past from mom, smores....!!!!

hell with the cutty when i get to see juice man petting that lil goat! lmao at him, golden times today folks....glad i went.

about to gear up and hit the strip again with all our crew, tomorrow, i shall start crushing the 12 rings i have....and wait for fed-ex man to come perhaps monday?

well,

all my flea market specials came in today,

only about a week off, not too bad, lol.

probably my fault, few folks are slow to pay, so it sorta trickles down hill.......

but, it's all here,

everyone wants to go to the strip tonight, but i am not in the mind frame to detail the cutlass(filthy) and momma has the truck,

but i dont wanna fool with starting the crimping on the cutlass just yet either,

so, i will probably put it off till tomorrow.....

funny story....

alex,(juiceman), always hangs with me when i am working on stuff....

when i mess up, he does the "uh-oh" face.......

but they got him to know it as the "pa-paw" face!

so everytime they tell juice to do the "pa-paw" face......

we see this!!!!

lmao

rather sure i have lost my dam mind, but then again you cant loose something you never had!

okay, my new goal, well it will be to run old school install in the cutlass.

sealed wall!

yup,

going to do 4 18" ssa xcons on 8k sealed :-)

done sketched, measured, considered, and pondered long enough.

and even saved up a little in the process.

the goal, of coarse, like many around here, be done in time for slamology.....

gotta change up some bracing and finish my glassing, probably need to catch up my pics too.

will have the first part, (4 subs, 2 bateries, & 2 amps), ready inside of a month, and if all goes well,

the other 2 amps and 2 batteries will be in by mid june, should be a very comfortable goal to achieve.

front stage, well........

working on several ideas....i am sure i will narrow it down when it is time to pull the trigger.

well, hold that thought.....

my dollar asked my ego to check a graph or two, lol

the 4 xcons sealed would be bad ass, but at the end of the day, three ported would offer alot more badassness!

i am concerned with achieving the highest level of badassness as possible,(my budget defines possible), so i gotta do a lil more math before i totally commit ...

ugh, i just need two or three cutlasses so i compare easier!!!!!!!
