    LOL, I have no idea what that was. probably a commercial or something. my son was watching Sponge Bob Square pants while I was working. I don't really pay attention to what is on tv, I just have it on for background noise.

    -funny that that caught YOUR interest though!

    You're using styrene for most of the work now, right? Where'd you get it, locally, internet? Know of any hardware stores that carry it?

    Great looking case so far, Renderman. I am really impressed with the iris, that's a great bit of work there. Can't wait to see it all together.

    Yes, I'm using Styrene, I've found that for anything that would require some type of structural integrity, I should use styrene. for the decorative stuff I'm going to use matt board, much cheaper and easier to cut!

    I bought the sheets at a local place called Hobby town. They sell all kinds of modeling supplies as well as remote controlled stuff. planes, cars, trains etc.

    FYI, I will be gone for at least 10 days. my work is sending me to Sunny SanFrancisco for a job. So untill I get back, sadly this will have to be put on hold.

    Later!

    Have fun on your trip and welcome to California. I'm about 30 minutes from San Fran. Bring your jacket, it's almost always chili there (50s - 60s). Lately, it's been pretty nice though.

    thanks for the weather update. I didn't realize it was going to be that chilly there. I'll have to bring some jeans and a jacket!

    looking sweet dude.

    i donlt know if its me or if the pic is off, but when the vents open for the rad, are a few of them off angle, i think it may juist be the image making it look that way,

    pease,

    Hey guys, -Sorry I've been a way for a while. I'm down in San Francisco working on measuring a hotel. -Won't be able to get back till next week sometime. -This is alot of work. I'm putting in 11-12 hr days straight. We also don't get unlimited internet access. We have to pay for it, so my boss today said we could get it for 1 hr to check our email. So I've obviously been using my time more wisely and checking the TBCS Forum! -Don't have time to go into alot of detail but I've got a new idea for the case, I'll fill you guys in next week.

    -Later,
