Wow!

Well I just couldn't resist anymore. I've been a fan of Saint's ever since I picked up the book last summer.

Yes Pics!  I think it's awesome that people got introduced to this hobby by that book. 
Welcome to the madness.

Thank you for the welcome gentlemen...it is becoming amazing as it was last night that we finished attaching both sides of the cabinet  to the base. MAN, WHAT A JOB!!  Given the fact that the floor in Dad's shop is not level (DON'T ask), we had fun measuring, screwing, and remeasuring...amazingly enough, it's all level and all sqaure. 

I will provide pics ASAP...perhaps within a week or so.  Money is tight for my family right now, so posting pics isn't at the top of the list, but I will put up some pics as soon as I have them.  Perhaps I should have waited about joining. :)

Did I say money was tight? They won't be beautiful pics, but I think I can do a small video of the cab,  and do "stills" from that video.  I never said I was the sharpest tack in the box.... :D.  Once I get that done, and the web page set up, I will post a link here.  As for the other pics, you will have to wait until such time as I have the money to get them developed.

I'd love to say we've made pics of every phase, and we probably have...but only one or two. Problem is we keep forgetting to take the camera down to the shop! How swift was that?

At any rate, pics as soon as possible...promise!

Well, I have good news and bad news...I have pics, but no way to upload them.  They're too big, even at smallest res to load onto the web pages we currently have without having to take my wife's (and my) business page down.  I'm going to submit the project today to BYOAC and see if they can give me a small amount of web space so I can put the pictures up. Please be patient, photos are coming as soon as I find a host!

If you just can't wait, feel free to email me at AOL or leave a post here and I'll mail the pics to you. Thanks!

Pics are finally here guys - at least of basically where we are right now.  None of the base assembly, and the "sawing pics" are on those cameras I told you about.  Hope you enjoy - and sorry for the brief delay!  :D
