Couldn't agree more as well as the Fred Gibb show. I think right now they should try to make all the money they can. If it is going back to the community in one way or another they will only benefit more and it will bring more publicity to the Reunion and the strip.

Actually it's both, ........... and neither.

It was an air pressure gauge I had in my garage; a spare for the regulator on my airbrush. I was looking for something else one evening and ran across it, then the rusty old gears started creaking.



Here's a comparison. An original and the first one I made.


Then some follow-up work.

And when do you have spare time?

I'm generally free between 2 AM and 5 AM.



I wasn't alone on this project. Much of the credit goes to Jeff Fansler (AMUSEME here on the sYc) and to another Dragway club member, Dan Ford
Again, it's the friends that make things like this FUN.

Dennis; if you need a "home base" at the Gibb show to sell tickets, we will have a small display with an E-Z Up that I can offer up.

I am sure we can handle this for you and your club members. Buy a raffle ticket, get a free MCACN show flyer!
