    It's an expensive hobby that i never planned on becoming a hobby.
    I'm envious of the people that fix these for a living, it must be a dream job

    Mom called me a bit ago to let me know a family friend of ours passed away last night. 99 years old. She was my “birthday buddy” hers being 12/3 and me 12/5. She was my grandma’s neighbor and friend originally. Her daughter was my mom’s best friend in high school. She’s known me and my mom our whole lives. Sort of an extra grandparent to me.
    Most of her family is gone - husband and 3 kids. Just a couple of grandkids that have never been close to her.

    Thanks boys. Given her age not a total shock but hell, the woman beat COVID 4 years ago so she was pretty tough.

    Sorry Weesa, 99 is a very respectful age.

    Another daunting new hobby to learn.

    I bought mine about a month ago or so and have been printing all sorts of things. I’m using SolidWorks for CAD but Fusion is available for free.

    Cool "concept" vehicle from Jeep at the Easter Jeep Safari in Moab. It reminds me of the AVE "Brute" conversions for the TJ's. Jeep will never put it into production which is a shame, I think that it would be a good seller if the kept it at an entry to mid- level vehicle. ( Sport to Willys trim levels). Single cab, 6.5 ft bed, solid axles front and rear, body on frame construction.
    I'd jump ship!

    Sorry to hear. My wife’s grandmother made it to. 99 and 11 months. She was a tough bird. Lived in Phoenix with no air conditioning in a house that she and her children built after her husband passed due to a ruptured appendix. Regardless of her age she was like family. You are all in my thoughts.
