I've been a subscriber of RC Driver since the beginning and now a proud member of the forums since its beginnings. :D I got into R/C when I was 8 and then wondered off for years. I've been back into it heavily for 7 years now and have been into many aspects of the hobby. I have a nice collection of land, air and sea vehicles, but spend most of my time these days airbrushing and helping Charlie Barnes build the best R/C paint site on the interent!
I have many hobbies, but since there is only so much time in a day I spend most of my spare time either driving my R/C vehicles, airbrushing, woodworking or reseaching about the three.

This is what happens when you combine hobbies.

I remember seeing that Maxx build ages ago...you ever finish it?

I liked how you even made the coil springs.

Good stuff.

Not quite finished, it's been a long work in progress. Many set backs. Two steps forward and three steps back. Many projects have come and gone in between. I have many other unfinished projects. I guess I'm one of those guys.:(

One day soon I hope to build my first crawler! ;)

ROFL...

Too many projects and not enough time.

I know exactly how you feel.;)

Yeah I know, I've followed your many projects around the internet.

You ever finish that 1/6 scale with the DVD/CD player in it? :p

No. :(

Used the hydraulics that were going to raise/lower the LCD out of the bed to steer the Scorpion crawler I built.

That Mini-ITX motherboard went into an aluminum toobox that's in my pit trailer. :D

LOL! See, that's what happens when you don't work fast enough. Another idea pops into your head, another project gets started and takes priorety, parts get scavenged and projects never get finished.

I have the same problem. My projects tend to spawn other projects.
Couple that with a day job and family life, I'm suprised any projects get done at all!:p
