I give this thread a 3/5.

No man, it's a solid 4.5

Yeah, but that's in the metric system.

And in the metric system, water boils at 100 degrees celsius and freezes at 0 degrees.
In the US water boils at 212 degrees and freezes at 32 degrees.

Since he now did use his t-molding sample and duct tape on his motorcycle, the progress is now:

- A T-mold slotter... MAYBE!

I didn't think it was possible to have a setback in this project yet, but I was wrong!  :lol :lol :lol

By sapling, do you mean the tree that will eventually mature into some of the wood that will eventually be used in construction? Cause i figure by that math we're about a decade off.

Yeah, so it's accurate everywhere in the world except for like 3 silly countries.  ::)



Last time I checked, "America" was two whole continents. That flag represents the United States OF America. We were required to learn this in 2nd grade. This is the attitude of the United States. We can't even switch to the metric system. All we got out of that plan was a 2-liter bottle of soda. lol :angry::banghead:

Last time I checked the only country on earth with America in it's name is the United States of America.  Oh, and the territory of American Samoa.  And out of everybody on the two continents and additional islands, holdings, territories, etc the only ones that call themselves Americans are those who reside in the USA. Canadians, Brazilians, Mexicans, Samoans, Hondurans, United Statesians  AMERICANS!

USA
USA!
USA!!
USA!!!
USA!!!!

Go tell a Canadian they live in America... they'll crack you on the head with a syrup infused hockey stick, tell you they live in Canada (or Quebec if they're on of those, and maybe just maybe mention that it's technically in North America but who the hell goes by that.

There's a reason why people from the USA sew Canadian flags on their backpacks when they travel. Just sayin'.

Those people are just too stoned to realize that they are not sewing a picture of a pot leaf on their backpack.
