Hi Leland:

so that I can try to bee more positive :=)

:::Woodworking, old cars, and old house(more than a hobby) have been the main hobbies for quite a while.:::

Well that sounds like more than enough to keep any one guy busy. I like old cars as well... and especially race cars, motorcycles, and street hot rods... are you restoring an old car currently?

Woodworking... I am sure you've been over to the Craftsman forum here at ART, right? It's one of my fave spots here. But I am a complete neophyte when it comes to woodworking.

:::Your tube discussions on other forums here leave me in the dust. Not much on theory anymore, but give me a schematic and I can probably build it, point to point anyway.:::

Boring as shit, heh? sort of like talking to a bunch of brake and suspension engineers if your a layperson.. the angle of the vanes, the pitch of the vanes, the area, the cooling surface... all we hot rodders want to know is will it stop this sprint car at the end of the shoot before I go over the wall and out of the park :+))

so... apologies... and I mean this somewhat sincerely... we should all be exploring the benefits of or the excitement of audio... not playing weenie engineer with each other and to impress the newbee's...

So... often... on any group of forums... they become egnineering centric... and you get a bunch of guys talking about the most mundance shit... and arguing with each other...

whereas, all of us (including me) need to be more helpful and try to focus on offering practical advice and guidance as opposed to dishing out arcane magnetic theory...

even I find the technical discussions of which is better a SRPP or a CF.... boring, boring, snooze.... someone wake me up...

thanks for the compliment... and I realize it was offered sincerely... and it's appreciated...

but you don't want to hear all that technical dry bullshit stuff...

you might want to make something beautiful that sounds good...

best of with the 7pi's... are they a kit?

What wood you gonna use? Any pics? Start yet?

msl

Kansas and old houses... seems picturesque.... idyllic even. Not like an east coast urban center (philly).
