  1. Hello from Worthington. Ive seen your car around. Looks great. Welcome.
  2. Nature's Miracle works great on pet fluids and stains. It will help get the stink out.
  3. If Joe offers a new class, I'll be in the first one. My goal was to see if anyone could give me a sneak peak. I have to do some juggling to make the class. I like training, especially free, but if it's going to be a LEO telling me to stay down, shut up, and wait for the Calvary, I will probably pass.
  4. Has anyone taken this or heard about it? I'm signed up for the next class but is wish I knew more about it before I go. It's free which is good but if it's a duck and cover class it's probably not worth the time. Thx https://sheriff.franklincountyohio.gov/programs/civilian-response-to-active-shooter-events.cfm
  5. Drink all the coffee and talk about feelings all you want. No one will hear you over the shooting though. I'm game depending on the day.
  6. Clint Eastwood for President Chuck Norris for VP.
  7. Definitely a diverse group of folks. The show wouldn't have been bad if they had planned the parking better. That was a total CF. Overall I had fun and I ended up with a "favorite" trophy so I would go again. Good seeing Scott, Brian, Nicky, Lee and anyone else from CR.
  8. Heading there in a few. It's a bit nipply out here.
  9. They are small so buy both. I have only shot the Springfield in 45 but in overall feel I would go the shield.
  10. Indianapolis has good children's museums which will kill most of a day depending on how old the kids are. Sometimes there are hotel packages where you get tickets free or reduced. Wright Patterson has an air force museum and there is a intertrainment junction near Cincinnati. It has a massive indoor model train display and the detail is awesome. Good luck.
  11. How about an AWD Astro van? The 4.3 is damn near bulletproof if you can find a decent one. Parts are cheap and you could rebuild it in a junkyard. It would come with cushy seats and you could throw a cargo carrier on top for extra storage. Whatever you choose, post pics. Good luck
  12. The trans am nationals are in late August in Dayton. You are all welcome to come down and tell the owners in person you think their cars are trashy.
  13. I found that channel recently and really like their videos. That car is great. The only thing I didn't like was he put the 77-78 nose on a 79. I loved my 78 TA and will have another someday. That was the car that if you stood on it long enough, the gas gauge moved.
  14. If the money works, it may be worth taking a chance. You have wanted a change for a long time. I don't know about the car but some guns are legal out there. Plus you know you would always have a place here if it didn't work out.

    Sig Sauer

    Do you mean Ruger LCR or a Taurus snub nose? Have you shot a snub nose? IMO, light 357's are not much fun. Shooting full power loads in a really light revolver can be painful and accuracy is challenging. If you want a snub nose stick with the 38spec and use good defense loads for carrying. If you want a 357, I recommend Ruger or Smith in a 4 inch or longer barrel. You will still be able to shoot 38 spec for plinking or to save money. The heavier gun will soak up the recoil and it's hard to beat a Smith trigger, especially on older guns. Good luck.
  16. Very nice. I've been looking for a red one for a while. congrats.
  17. What about cars from the 80s? Don't you know any girls with mullets?
  18. Try Edison and Woodys on McKinley. They are not far from the other 2 and they don't charge to go in. Woodys is kind of a s-hole but it's worth a look if you have an old car.
  19. I have had the 150 psi red one as a gift a few years ago and it has been fine. It doesn't run air tools very well but I mostly use it for tires.
  20. Joe, I passed your original post onto several folks and have been encouraging them to get their permits sooner than later. Maybe once May rolls around you can start a class called Shit You Missed since new permit holders won't have a chance to ask questions or seek help from their computer instructor. IMO this is too important a subject to be online only. If anything I think it discourages people from taking more training.
  21. I used to buy expensive sanding sticks and now I use nail files from Walmart for flash and seams. Then wet sand the body with 600 and 1,000 grit. Wrap it around a pencil for curved areas. I use cheap duplicolor primer. I'll sit in front of the couch and do it at night so it's not so boring. Once its cleared, you can use auto wax including polishing compounds if you go slow and it looks good. With kids I don't build much anymore but I used to do ok. Now it's harder to see the small parts and I have to use tweezers as I can't feel stuff as well to fit parts. EBay can be a good place for partial kits to fool with or rebuild. I have even heard of people thinning out nail polish for some really cool metallic colors. OP, if these are complete kits, those are good prices. I just have too many kits already. Good luck
  22. Painting model cars isn't bad. Prep the bodies well and put a coat of primer on. Lightly wet sand the body and spray a couple very light coats of paint. When the coverage looks good, wet sand again and spray clear. Polish and enjoy. There are several shops locally that sell paint and it can be thinned out to go farther. To start with buy a kit with the compressed air, nozzle and paint bottle. You can get them at Michaels or Amazon. Practice on something before you try it on the model. If you completely screw the pooch, get a gallon of Purple Power from Walmart. You can soak the model and it will strip the paint without hurting the plastic. Just wear gloves. Later on there are small compressors you can buy but the canned air works ok too. Good luck
  23. Anyone else hear the proposal to replace the 50 stars on our flag with a Prius? Its a beige one.
