Outstanding!!! Very nice job, great pics on the tip-2-tip thing. I’d put one of them new Cesaroni N10000 (that is ten thousand, not one thousand 😯 ) in there!What sort of altitude are you looking at for MHM, Sean?

Ye gads, nothing but net!!!! Way kwel…..

Well, the weather rolled in a day earlier than forecasted and by noon, the mud, wind and cold were no longer agreeable conditions to continue. Chad Moore did an excellant job of learning and operating as an LCO and we’ll…   Read more»

If you are doing the training I will take it as well.

Thanks for the input guys. I went with the drill press circle cutter from amazon. Not a bad deal for $20. I’ll let you know how it works out!

I use circle cutters in a drill press too. 🙂
