      Should have contacted me to "attempt" another failed group buy for baltic. I could of sold you 5x5ft sheets for $45 per sheet if we get enough people involved. We typically need about 35 sheets worth

      Make sure you stain it first.

      I would hate to spend that much money on wood and have moisture destroy it.

    4. altoncustomtech

      altoncustomtech

      Planned on coating it with resin, then smoothing that down and putting on body filler for a perfectly flat and smooth surface, then applying bedliner. Moisture shouldn't be an issue.

  6. Someone really needs to stop the Prarromia bot from spamming up the forum anymore. Additionally, what can we do to bot proof the forum some more? I'll do what I can to help!

      The vendor fees and the few people doing memberships, those funds all help go to it. Just a matter of having the hours in the day, because once we upgrade SSA, we have to do it to AA, CA-F, CAR and HAF.

      As always, if there's anything I can do to help out just let me know!

      Absolutely. My fabricating concentration is on the Traverse right now. Once that's completed I'll turn my attention back to the Jimmy and getting the 8" SLS's and permanent installation of the full ranges completed.

    4. altoncustomtech

      altoncustomtech

      I can imagine. I can't wait to get my FR89's in the permanent install. Was there a noticeable difference between the FR88's and 89's?

    1. Aaron Clinton

      Aaron Clinton

      We had to shut it down on the forums, it was causing too much server load.

      altoncustomtech
