rngprerunner 02-02-2006 12:25 PM

Brent's old bumpers.. cool!

Two Words. SAFETY GLASSES! Nothing sucks worse than chunks of metal from grinding in your eye.. I haven't even had it that bad, and it sucks.

Good work.

Gearhead61 02-02-2006 12:25 PM

winks 02-02-2006 12:35 PM

ha ha that's what i thought when i went over to his house. i guess he was painting some signs or something. but you should see all the burn marks he has from welding underneath the truck. after he got burned like ten times he finally decided to put the leathers on :dunce:

you dont have any idea of how many spark burns i have ,

i got one in my eye cutting w/ the chop saw.

i had 6 burns on my arms and back from welding laying down..

and as a matter of fact one in my ear from welding as well...

the bwest thing about getting a spark in the ear is listening to is sizzle.. :slaphappy
