Ok before getting back to the lobsterman's landmine (new name)
Something came for me the other day.
Anyone can maybe tell what it is and why it matters? This one is for me...a little gift.

Wheel bearings went in the front today. Wheel carriers were soda blasted, soaked in apple cider vinegar for a few weeks, shot with etching primer and then satin black...
I had left the bearings in through that process so as to not have to mask off the area. Out they came and new ones pressed in...
