Guys, I have an idea that will potentially save your life/sanity:
In your work area (garage, backyard, whatever), keep a big pile of old electronics, ceramic dishware, anything breakable.
Then when you spend 3 hours working on a gun only to have something go wrong, go beat the hell out of the pile of crap nearby instead of something you'll miss (your gun).
I can't tell you how much crap I've broken when something went horribly wrong. Or how far I've thrown stuff into the woods.
It really helps to have stress-relief electronics and a baseball bat/crowbar around.

On that note, I might as well post my various ideas I am planning....
EDIT: LOL Fnord, I like your isp rank afterwards... Are you hinting at breaking your computer?

Oh, I see. Why are you showing such a slow isp? Just because it is funny?

A few other people posted their SpeedTest results from colleges and such, so I figured I'd have to show them T1-line kids up with my super fast 26.4k modem.
(but yeah, I was just trying to be funny/stupid)
That is my actual result by the way, not a fake one.

yard with an old axe, running in circles for a few minets and, then i go on a five minet ride on my long board to cool my jets .

i only shoot spuds on special occasions ie christmas parties and pumping up an air cannon takes to long.
I know what you mean..Its a hobby to me...Its fun, I don't know how much money I have spent ,but I just keep spending money on one gun....I don't even think its worth it, but I keep going....I keep finding better ways of doing things..I still have not finished my gun untill I am satisfied ..............Maybe I will get Ideas from you guys to make it better .....Its not about money...Its about having fun......
