We didn't meet, which is good because it was VERY wet down by the rocks |

Well I would love to get together and crawl this weekend. Unfortunately, here is my schedule. The wife has Saturday off... but I have to go to work to do inventory from 6 am to 12ish...:-( I might be available after that. Sunday my wife does work all day. :-( Well that's the way my life goes. |

If anyone is watching this board and thinks nothing is happening around here (West MI), SEND A PM and request to recieve e-mails about crawling . This forum has not yet become the primary way we comunicate. I don't know how others feel, chime in, but to me a fourm feels more like the place to announce that something is going on. If "we" post every little planning detail and the whole "voting prossess" the forum will be very hard to follow, ESPECIALLY for visitors who are just trying to find out where and when things are happening. I know that I often don't post because I feel like there is a cetrain amount of commitment invoilved, for instance , If I start posting about something I better be ready to follow through with that thing . Perhaps this thread should be used only for solid announcements of where and when we are geting together. OR maybe we need a second thread for the express purpose of posting actual planned events. Does anyone know if the calender functions provided on the forum might be usefull to us ? |

I kind agree with Nate. If the 25 or so people in the mass emails would start posting it would be a lot different. On a different note; some pic.s from today, sorry scott, none of the non-articulating beast; you were late |

Well, this old guy just spent 4+ hours making a indoor rock crawling garden. I have a sterio and 75,000 btu heater to keep my crinkly butt warm. LOL. I would invite everyone over to try it out... (I even setup a 12 gate course on it.) however, I snapped my C hub going into gate 3. Yea... that sucked. Have fun in Holland. Hopefully once I get up and running again, (with metal parts) I will have a g2g at my house.

| I'm Still Alive I've been busy on the bench. My latest brainstorm was to rotate some stearing gear 90 degrees on the rear axel and attach linkage to the Y link to keep the rear wheels vertical during articulation. So far the basic concept seems valid, but I think I may have opened up a fresh can of worms in terms of torque twist. By the end of this week I will have a drivable version for testing. I know you will want pics, but I have dial up internet so it might ACTUALLY take a day to post them.
