I don't think it's that big of a deal but all this would have to be done on site as there is NO WAY we'd ever get an export license for this stuff.

I do have to admit I let you guys down yesterday. A co worker told me about a girl in very short gut off jeans wearing chaps out at the logging field chopping wood. Said it was very pic worthy. Sorry.

Russ, where does one get some of them there "doublers" as I think they would help beef up my structure especially with new wiring to the hard points.
Gotta keep Mama happy you know.

Tough one Stan. Sometimes it comes down to what you're plugging into. Some days it doesn't matter what plug end you have, its just the wrong configuration and just doesn't plug in.

Correct Sir Tim,
I have found that if the receptacle isn't receptive, no current at all is going to flow. None, Nada.
Like every Good Boy Scout it does pay to be prepared however.

You think that would do the trick? Or, as they used to say in the comic books........
"IIiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeeee"

Judging from what Stan is saying, do they make rivets smaller than 1/8"?
