JLA's Project
Just to fill everyone in. Some time ago I gave Josh a set of pre drilled Corian 1911 grip blanks and a few pointers on how to build them. I have been waiting on a post with some pictures, to show us how he is coming along, reckon I will see them in 2012 LOL.
Josh, I was just wondering how you are coming along with the project. I'm sure the members would like to be filled in also. Have a happy new year, and I'm pulling for the Cowboys.

Re: JLA's Project
Cant believe i didnt catch that one worm..
 I did get started on them today. Had to test out a new bandsaw blade. Im getting me a new belt/barrel sander here in the next week or so and I really wanna use it right away so ill wait to whittle them down til i get it. But I did get em cut out today with the bandsaw. Sure made short work of the excess.

Re: JLA's Project
Yeah. i watched saints and 9ers play last nite. Looked a little lopsided in the 1st, 9ers scored 3 TDs, then saints came back before the half, then the tradeoffs TD for TD thru the end of the 4th where the 9ers narrowly win the division. Poor saints.. A stolen victory in my mind. neither defense could stop either offense. That was a 4 quarter bout of russian roulette and the saints finally got the live cylinder.
