    They are being boxed up today and shipping out this afternoon or tomorrow.

    The funny thing is we built all those in 36min :cool: i built 2 of these to speed up the fabrication. Cutting takes a wile but the welding is fast! Eric loads and unloads the jigs and I weld them up.

    Sorry. It's in a box, labeled and off like a prom dress!

    Jerry's VP of Human Resources (who also manages shipping and receiving) over saw the packing and labeling operation today.

    So I finally got a chance to fire up the big 'ol KC's tonite, they didn't shake at all! Not like the thing I rigged up before, hell, those lights shook like Micheal J Fox on too much caffeine. Thanks Jerry, nice work as usual.
