Lesser mortals would have crumbled. Well done.
Best thread ever.
Can you set up a live web cam on your next project?

For some reason, these are much much more hilarious now! I have no idea why! I'm going to go get a burrito and a beer...

That's a great idea actually. I will set up a camera just above the intake ports..and have two way audio so people can yell at me. Or maybe one of those big red flashing lights that can come on when someone clicks a button?

well done, Travis. You know we've all been rooting for you.

BTW, does the "B" stand for Brawny?

Wow, what a bummer! At least you didn't bend a bunch of valves.

THIS IS AWESOME!!! Excellent work Travis! My bags are unpacked, my toolbox put away, will enjoy a nice dinner with my family!

Have a beer and get 'er completed!!

BTW, you were not trying to kill yourself at the end by lying on the floor with all the carbon monoxide flowing in the room?

Very nice work, welcome to the DIY CLUB!!

Cheers,

Mike

Sensational Travis. I was a bit worried when you lay down in front of the exhaust. CO poisoning! I'm thinkink..."It's OK mate, everything is good, you don't need to take this sort of drastic step!!" Then I realised the garage door was open. Enjoy your ride.

I've been following these posts of your travails the last few days, like it was war news from the front.
So glad this is ending well for you.

This thread was incredible on many levels - Good people out here.

But - careful with the CO stuff!
