Did you wear gloves?

Na, too hard to flip back and forth between the Hustler and Spice channel with the remote.

Kawi green finally or close to it, and I wrote the mix down, back to my original mix for the plastic but this time knowing I only had roughly 2- mins I degassed them separately before combining part a+b and got a much better end result- i’m very slowly figuring this hobby out....well kinda.
Mailman came today with more mix to play with so I’m just passing on the pics, thanks for looking (still working on Honda red, more color dye coming Monday)

Shep I am so impressed by what you and Mr Swinehart do with these molds. It is such an important part of our hobby that we have guys reproducing such sought after parts. Thank you again for the headlight shell you sent me, and I meant to say that was the best packing job I think I've ever seen, haha. Thanks for doing this stuff guys. Looks like you've got the Kawi green pegged!

Loaned yard sweeper to neighbor
It came back broken and had about 15 little turtles in the collection bin along w yard debris.
Got to play on the lathe, bore the gear and then broach a new keyway

[Ghostv2]

I came here for the turtles. Alas, it was a machining pic.

[plastikosmd]

Only animal pic that I have that is current, one of the cats waiting for the wife to come in the door.

Supercross was on. Hit the BBQ. Picked up some Bosnian food. Oh it is so good. I BBQ all year.

What kind of turtle is that?

[knappyfeet]

Went to Slab City yesterday with the local HOG group and felt frisky enough to climb Salvation Mountain.

It was hot but really fun

[plastikosmd]

Not sure, we have tons of them all over this time of year

What kind of turtle is that?

My whole life we've always called them "painted" turtles. I didn't even want to acknowledge the post about them, lol. I save a lot of them from dying in traffic so hearing about a group getting killed is like doh! It's like when you spend notable effort shutting lights off to conserve power then the roommate leaves for a 12 hour shift and leaves every light in the house on.

Here we have painted turtles, snappers, and the occasional tortoise, I think a couple kinds. The snapping turtles can get huge, they look like a dinosaur, and they mean business. I still help them off the road too for some reason.

If memory serves me, I think someone may have told me the painted turtle is invasive here. I don't know whether or not that's true but they've been here longer than I have. There is no shortage of them either.

If they don't already know, don't tell them how awful your posts are on here.
