The conservatives, to save money, closed the prison moved people, paid their moves (guards/mgmt etc), lost their source of food, and came up with tickets instead of jail, Talk about STUPID! Maybe saving money isn't always the best choice. Idiots.

Being a 2017, I was really surprised that this Uhaul doesn't have PATS. It is just a normal key, no receiver on the ignition tumbler either.

Budget charged my card 50 dollars for a no show when I cancelled the truck, and even have an email with a cancellation confirmation. They suck. Uhaul didn't ask for a card until I got there to get the truck.

Today I finally got out my hydrodipping junk, and decided I'd try it and see how it works.

I took my Mustang spare window switch panel, and decided to try it while it was raining. My panels were black so first I had to spray them a grey or silver to achieve the color I wanted. I almost did the Grabber blue, like my stripes, but thought that might be a bit too much. I went with basically a primer grey for the base coat. This is how it turned out. The picture is still glossy as it is wet, but has since dried to a Matte finish.

My next project will be lil Red's radio surround in black with this pattern. I have carbon fiber also, but I don't think I want it like that. I've got a great blue material, but am not going to do it to my blue truck.

Adrian....it is really hard to get this stuff shipped to me in Alaska at a decent rate, so I had to look long and hard to find a place that would ship to me. I ended up using a site, www.hydraphics.com. They sent me the activator and hardener etc. The film I bought off eBay from different sources. Again, it is hard to get this stuff to Alaska.

I had my daughter, in Alabama (working for an Alaskan Native Corporation in Huntsville), to get it and ship it to me. Works a lot better now, but at first it was almost impossible for me to get things.

No,AK, its a little out of place!- underneath that roll is about a 20'chute that leads to the de-barking drum- 70' behind that mess is the ladder conveyor and it was full of logs! all the work was done with a crane and from either side over the side walls from a man lift!-
JP- im sure you seen things like this-but that was tri- braze steel- it nearly flattened itself back out as we cut and pulled it out!-it had all the slack out of that chain!
