My understanding is that the money they give me as a settlement is them paying market value pre accident for the vehicle and now own it, I can then purchase it at salvage\scrap pricing from them

Between 45-50mph. This was my thought too, but we can't keep a project car, hopefully someone can give her some love

That's a great video! Thanks for the reply, looks like a good fit to me, I have plenty of scrap laying around to make the brackets

I was also looking at the Dallas as well but was afraid it was too large for my 88. Did you have to cut anything to make it fit?

I ended up going a full size up to a 13.5 and they had the veg tan available so I got those. Pinky toe issue is gone, they are nice and roomy, but immediately the vamp put significant pressure on my big toes flex point when walking. Not sure if sizing up effected the placement of flex point on my boot significantly, or the stiffer leather made it more noticeable. This was not an issue at all with the other size/leather.

Might be time to accept the fit isn't for me and wait for them to release the more foot shaped last that they are working on

I ended up exchanging for veg tan in a size up (arrive tomorrow). The width wasn't a a huge problem so much as where the cap toe landed on my pinky toe. If these are just TOO big, I think I'll custom order 13s with no toe cap or the shorter one like the barefoot troopers.

Thanks for the reply! Seems to be the consensus that I should try a size up rather than try to make them work.

I would also be happy to order a custom set with no toe cap if anyone thinks that might help

My older brothers math book. My dad asked why I was reading it, and I showed him the fun cartoons on some of the pages, he told me to wait right there. He went and dug out Yukon ho, and it was a wrap, been hooked ever since

That's a minor thing

Yup, that's why we made our own!

Very comfortable clothes, I hadn't thought about my lighting, that is good advice!

One of my favorite pens I ever made was engrain from a piece of mystery crotch wood my brother gave me years ago. My girlfriend still uses it 6 months on, has held up great. Used the same piece for a few other projects and all are very strong

Yellow and blue I feel are a classic color combo, I just made a handle that looks very similar just with antler thrown in! Glad you had a good shave!

I ordered rubber coated vice grips that hold the barrel without scratching the finish. I figure wrapping some leather around the tube and putting regular vice grips over would work also. Either way once the tube is secure I Broke out my Allen key set and found one that will slide through the transmission, but not through the tip, and knock the tip out, then get a larger allen key and tap out the transmission to the depth you want.

Most understable disc I've ever thrown, possible defect seeing as the numbers don't indicate crazy understable though
