Hi Vance, The winter up here is pretty deep. I went home the other day to shovel snow off my buildings and Van and it was a four day chore. I had the sub ready for blasting outside, and then was called away from home to work. By the time I got back the sub was under 4 plus feet of snow. The pictures I took are pretty funny. I'll post them in a bit. So the sub is underwater and in the deep freeze for save keeping. I have been debating for some time now if I should leave my original claw arm on the sub. It's very hard and slow to actuate. So at the moment it's used for just a crash bar, like Alec uses his for. I can make a proper replacement crash bar, then later add a more functional arm. So it's mostly a matter of nostalgia at the moment. What would you do in my place. I take it you could see the pictures right? Jay try this link to the root for the albums. If that doesn't work then I'll post them on Flicker. I tried those links when being signed out and being on Windows Explorer browser and had no trouble. I also tried them on a Mac in Firefox and had no trouble. The only thing I can see that is different in the link from the address bar from the ones in my posting is the %20 sign used in place of spaces that are put in automatically when I copy and past the links. Perhaps they are causing the trouble if you copy and paste them. I tried them both by just clicking the links and copying and pasting and they worked good. The albums are set as public just like I did before. Hope this works.

Of course, it was 76 degrees here today, sunny and a few clouds...breezy. Okay, I can't think of a complaint. And there's some of you guys who up to your armpits in winter, and I do mean winter.

Greetings Subdudes,
Here are some pictures of the grabber arm claw/crash bar, coming apart. I'm going to try Windows Live again since I can put pictures in folds to keep things tidy. http://cid-5085d10eb6afe47c.skydrive.live.com/browse.aspx/Claw%20Removel http://cid-5085d10eb6afe47c.skydrive.live.com/browse.aspx/Claw%20Removel/SS%20Claw%20Control%20Bar Szybowski = |
