      Honestly...

      As a mushroom hunter in the PNW I enjoy finding and even picking the psilocybes for their rarity and the "Oooh! I'm getting away with something." that comes with it. At over fifty years old I haven't had the nerve to actually play with any of them. I had my fun trying more stuff than most in my youth, including "shrooms" and LSD. Now I just have anxiety around the idea of being off my game for even a minute. As an adult in a domestic circumstance there's always the chance that I'll need to step up or be the pin man. I just don't have a six hour window when that absolutely couldn't happen

        Yes i have finally come around myself , It's that damn thing they call growing up. I'm not always happy about being the only one to step up but when I do I'm glad that I was able to. Sometimes when I get tired of being the only one to step I have to step back and realize it wasn't until I turned 40 that I put away childish habits, so I have to give lots of slack like was given me. That POV can be hard to come by some days though.
        But I'll never stop trying trying to be funny

          The cab came out quite well. You cannot see any of the markings. I shot one spot where I had written "side" with some flat black on the cab. I think that, plus the glue saved me. But, never again!

          Here is the cab before corners are installed. Ask me how I know you need new rivets.

                Wow it's red! That doesn't look like the standard Marshall red. It's more like hooker lipstick/clown nose/poodle pecker red

                    It's called British Red Levaunt. The official Marshall stuff costs more than twice as much, and AFAIK isn't much different. I will post the answer to the rivets over on my rivets post.
