"Pursuit of Shape"
Recently read Dan Brown's book Digital Fortress......within body of book was mentionof the root of the word Sincere Latin...Sin Cera' which literal translation is Without Wax. in real old school days, sculptors of Rock mostly would get into production crunches, move too fast and make errors, which they would fill with wax to fake....so the really tight stuff, with minimal flaw, came to be known as Sin Cera...without Wax
I still just drove up into this hood, maybe 7 mos....i've been doing paint & body on Cars & Aircraft for about 45 years, i've seen a lot of horrors, suffered a lot of Horrors, and have seen stuff that blows me away...have managed to get some show winners & placers out there myself. In the short amount of time that i have been here, i have been knocked off the couch by the projects i follow.....stuff that i would most definitely tag
"Sin Cera" ECS is just beyond Belief, 747mopar stuns me for DIY, same with Hawk hsorman Whoever is doing'68 Coronet Restoration" Blue/green metallic...this stuff knocks me on my *** ...the volume of effort & dedication is a perpetual Marvel. Truly challenges me.....inspires hell out of me......hope to have my own project on here next year......for me, the work just gets harder because each time it has to be better, have to learn more....i am a veteran of Hell's Kitchen, but that doesn't mean i think i know everything....i learned a long time ago, if one fools himself into believing that He/She knows everything there is to know know about something.....well......that's all they're ever going to know.
Two others Who, if not for them, i wouldn't have 'stuck' around.
Super-bee-ski & Photo440...it was their words & encouragement that kept me posting..sticking my line in the water. I have referred to Photon as a Glass Expert......i work with it, but i really know little about the science....Photon is hands on and He knows values, chemical structures. how to scientifically test stress loads..what it can handle in black & white..way beyond me. He may not think of Himself as an authority. but He knows a whole lot more about it than i do...so to me He is an expert.
Hopefully down the road a little, i will be able to help Ski with his Polara, as we are not too far apart....Photon has His RR project goin that i wish i could lend a hand to.....have to see the horizon next year...btw Photon & Ski.. process photos ..i'm keepin my eye on You Guys...feed me please!

To all of You Who have shown me a Welcome. I am in Your debt....i have made some real connects here. People i truly Hope to meet in future...i'm on an island sort of because my license ha been on a hold since 2011, so i don't venture out from Home much, i work on the old rides to pay my roof & food to My Man Pete and i build my Art,
FBBO has been my "social life" since November 2014...probably has to do with why i post so many threads and leave long *** comments on Others threads, God i can't wait to have a ride strapped to my butt again....truly jonesing hard.
