LTO, I hear the paypal account firing up again...

I had to get the 3.5mm turnbuckles in order to use the gray ends, but these will work the trick:

I just thin it's the fact that Reg's has too much time on his hands and he may want to spend more attention to his new boy
on second thought, maybe he shouldn't be teaching little Hammer such fancy dialect unless Reg's plan is to have a little MC Hammer

First off, we are ( supposedly ) having a girl

Secondly, I have too much time on my hands? this from the guy that has build 15 runners for Rod while at ( cough, cough ) work
and has used a 500X microscope to look at shock shafts!
Nice pic!

Mike, that is a lot of polishing! Are those turnbuckle ends in the pics above like the ones mentioned in the link earlier? What is being used underneath the ends for spacers?
