TGIF - Home Improvement

What a busy week around The HRW SkunkWorks...I am really glad it's Friday :)

Doing our annual clean up and trying to spruce up the old hole in the ground. Small changes such as the new tire storage are helping me keep organized.

New Difalco's all installed on the MIDMO and ready for action. Need one or two more new light fixtures but they can wait...too many cool slot cars trickling out that I want.

Website/Forum renewal is coming up and getting things cleaned up behind the scenes. Nothing anyone really needs to be concerned about, the renewal is painless and we never skip a beat (knock on wood).

Still have a few weeks of summer weather here and plan to enjoy it. The General and I will do a little grilling this weekend with our kids and grandkids, which is always fun times.

Many projects stacking up and this weekend the iron will be hot and the solder will flow :) From road course to oval racers, it will be quite a building session :)

Hope all of you have a great weekend and you have some fun slot car time.

Two sets of Proxy cars to run this weekend for me! The Barn find cars and the Modern Bombers. should be plenty of fun there for sure. Hope to fire up the grill myself Saturday, cant race without good vittles! One more thing I need to add....

Hi, my name is Bob, and I have purchased a Digital slot car set. I will be setting up a trial layout to see what all this Digital stuff is about. I have high hopes for incorporating this into my road course, and be able to run both Digital and analog cars as needed.
So my journey into the world of technology is about to start, soon I may even understand some of it? we'll see on that one..

Have a great weekend everyone!

Bob

Well this weekend will be hot and humid again.
It should give me time in the dungeon, to get some builds finished, and new ones started.
If the rain stays away I'm off to the local dirt track Sat night for a Childrens Autism Charity night of racing and some dust to chew on.
Sunday back to, the dungeon like Harry, the Solder will flow.
Have a great one everybody.
Bob

This weekend is home improvement projects here as well!
For me, I will be putting in the new replacement windows in the upstairs and next week it is the roofers for a new roof!
Will be working some slot car goodness in here and there though as well. :)

Off to the Nitro Nationals in a few minutes, might make a stop in the Big Smoke on the way through and pick up a new car to victomize for the T/A proxy. It's all about cars this weekend!

I guess you could call it a home improvement for the wife is after me to get the well up and running again. I told her that there is some small bottles of water out by the Slot Car Track in the refrigerator. For some reason there is no sense of humor around here today. Oh well, I might as well get busy on fixing the well before she shoves me down that little pipe to get her some water.
