:thanks

actually, the pain is more in my shoulder! ;)
and my index finger which has a slightly swollen joint...

being OCD and slightly posessed certainly helps, but I couldn't have done it without GREAT STUFF! :bow
Poorboy's rocks!
 
:thanks

Those Scion metallic flakes are awesome looking1

the silver flakes in the magnetic gray are really thick, and the BH glaze and NB really make them look more dimensional.

but the multi-color flakes in the Black Sand Pearl - now those are awesome, but have no idea how to capture them in photos
 
hey, i'm po' - no extra $$ right now for PC but i got hands! and they should be fully functional again by next weekend! LOL
Oh to be young again. I'm envious of you. If I were to do that with my shoulder I wouldn't be able to lift my arm for a month. Even using a buffer exacts its price from me. Sometimes I have to plan a full detail to be a two day event. :rofl

Nice job on the Scion. :bigups

I'm still envious of you and the fact that you feel good enough to attempt it. Oh to be young again, whether physically or just in state of mind.
