update....

so we ran out of gas on the welder at the shop with a mere seat tab to go. ah well.... The frame should be off to powdercoat monday, and hopefully back shortly there after. The coater quoted me a ridiculously low price, so i have a feeling when i'm actually ready to do it, he'll change his mind and it's gonna be quite a bit more, and if thats the case, it's krylon once again for me. I'm just anxious to get it back- it's all downhill from there.
went to a basement show last nite- Mother Orchis played with Breathe Fire and Ludicra. killer show! great sound, great crowd, and Roach, the bass player from Mother Orchis, looked hot as always!

anyway, I really don't have much today. just a mildly humorous, yet gut wrenching picture of 'ol One Legs turbo shovel...

yea. kinda gnarly, isn't it? it actually ripped the cases at the cylinder studs. bananas!

How the fuck does that happen!?

One of the base studs let loose, and the others followed the same course a fraction of a second later. 13 pounds of boost pressure will bring out the weak spots in anything I suppose. Sounded like a grenade went off!!! Been too damn busy getting it back together to post pics and a writeup, but that will come soon enough.
