Zilla

Well thank God and U-Haul I made it back to Texas. My old truck decided she liked New Mexico and broke down there. Oil pump went out and she threw a rod. Thankfully a trucker from Las Vegas stopped and gave me a ride into Tucumari where I over nighted and thru the grace of god friends pooled money and got me a U-Haul for the rest of the trip into Dallas. Sadly the job I moved for was frozen the night before I was to get my offer. LOL Just my luck, once again I'm in Texas jobless and with out a car/truck. Oh well that will pass too. I'll find something. If y'all hear of anything let me know. LOL

We had a '65 Barracuda that was named Ruda. The shop vac we had at the movie theater I use to clean when I was in High School was also named R2D2. More common tools are the thingy ma jig or the doo wicky. LOL

Hey Ray... here is my baby. Zilla is a 1969 International 1200D 1 ton. She only has 65,000 miles on her. Kev

Yes it is and it's ok. Theres no side hole for the side volume buttons but I use the screen most of the time anyways. It is a real fast lil kit to put together.

With the tax refund I got myself an iTouch. Of course I had to have a case for it. Kev

I am just speechless at his work.

That is just totally awesome!!!! I'm almost scared to ask how you did the "diamonds" but you know enquiring minds want to know!! Kev

THOSE are like totally cool! I want to make one and I love that tri-weave border!!!

I've never thought about doing applique work like that. VERY AWESOME!! KK

Need one of those as a sign for my roomies bathroom.... TFF!!! Love it. Kev

I was going to stitch it down but it grew while I was doing the basket weave on it...so now that it's glued down I think that's where it's going to end...LOL KK too funny those are my initials too.

Well here it is...basket weave. It's not glued down yet.

All I can do is whine and snivel at that awesome work bench!! I want one. Wonder if Santa could bring me one this year. I mean heck he has 11 months to make it in! LOL Kev

Well here it is after tooling some basket weave on it and playing with a new I tool for the border. Looks sorta like nail heads or rivet to me. Might have to paint them. After it dries I'm going to get it glued down and might try my hand at some hand stitching since I picked up one of those awl things at the toy store yesterday (ie: TLF)
