Awesome write up and amazing work. Your write ups are very clean, straightforward and the pictures are always top notch. You are one of the many forum members that keep me motivated as a weeknight\weekend warrior. For me it is easy to overthink\over complicate the process and products, but your write ups put things into perspective.
