: Actually, I'm 13.25 hours into building a folding Tom Yost Sea Tour 17R
: already.

: But this morning I made the white-knuckle drive to Pembina, ND, to pick up my
: aluminum tubing and snap pins. So now I'm really off and building. To give
: my honest endorsements to anyone nervous about mail order, Texas Towers,
: Valco and Mike's Parcel Service all delivered exactly as promised and were
: a pleasure to deal with. Even the border officers were pleasant. The roads
: were not pleasant, just enough ground drift that you can see everything
: clearly except the asphalt. The ice on the way home was definitely not
: fun.

: I'm taking photos, so far. What do people think about the various photo
: websites for storing a build blog? Based on what I've read so far,
: Webshots sounds just right.

How do we know you're not shipping aluminum tubes to start your own uranium enrichment operation?

Please don't start another war:>)
