This is what “professional” installation gets you..............HA!

The installs look completely different. Clearly, you didn't know what you were doing or you could have gotten your amateur install to look like their pro install.

Hahahahaha
I guess I could have tried harder to emulate the “Pro’s” job. My brother said Helen Keller could have done a better job than them...

I wonder if you have the same Kenwood CD changer as I had/have in my TR7? I think it held 10 discs? I still have it in a box in my garage...was thinking I will still use it one day. Right now though, an MP3 player is a lot more practical!

Today in the local HD parking lot......

Hey Bugs...is that a WW II German aircraft?

Dang, stuck in front of the house. Not the tool to clean out the bar ditch when the ground is saturated.

Hiya Baz!

My Kenwood was a plane-jane single disk unit. Worked well enough but just was plumb wore out. The new Pioneer I picked up on Amazon for a whopping $74.00. I'm digging the ability to rock out with my iPod nano but then the deck picks up a call off of my phone all over Bluetooth, and......still be able to listen to my audio book CDs during my hour plus commute to work.

As far as the plane, it's a Nanchang CJ-6.

I would give a body part to own one of those. Simply because there is no real way I could ever afford a real American warbird trainer. The CJ-6 is expensive but more affordable in a way.

Cheers Bugs
Oops,
I forgot a random pic that I took.

OK thanks for the followup info, Bugs! We have an aero restoration business here and they do some interesting work. Including many warbirds. You never know what you'll see above when you hear that drone.....

"Wrought Iron" chair set for tenants bought from Walmart Online.
See right there where it says "wrought iron"? They must be heavy and solid. They sure were pricey.
The supplied description pictures matched the other set I already have exactly, so they must be the same.
http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1512064528.jpg

Hmm. These "iron" deck chairs feel pretty light.
Assembly required?
The screw heads strip out like nothing and the braces are wisps.
http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1512064552.jpg

Well that's not "iron" at all!
I don't want anyone falling because of my faulty upkeep.
With my Lincoln135 magic wand I can create solid metal out of thin air. Tada!
It only took 8-10 hours of working on the chairs instead of sitting in one.

It's a hack finish and incomplete but much more solid than the original design.New tenant was calling ready to use them.
I left a negative review on Walmart Online.
It never posted.

A (rotating) tealight holder I welded. Wing was snapped. I should have done more to it.
