  1. I was comparing megapixel to price, thats all. but that why I was asking cause I see these guys using Nikon and wonder why. Do you have to modify the Nikon?
  2. Sounds good, I'm still himin and hawin over the price. But that won't last. I saw your embroidered logo @ Valinda's the other day. It looks really good. Just like your avitar
  3. I like mine pretty well. I could have made it bigger, but I don't think I'd gain anything. As it is now I can configure it several different ways to fit different needs. It was pretty simple to make since someone here weld alum very well and free
  4. it's pretty thin alum, so it's pretty light. I just put everthing up top recently, I like it. The extra drag naturally make you look up.
  5. That a good reason. I was thinking that some people thought the speed was a good trade off. As for your 10D, several people here have them with zero issues. I have already seen several problems with the rebel. however they are easily fixed. I'm going back and forth between the 20D and rebel. Being that our season is short, it's a bit hard to go the extra mile. I have a feeling that I will suck it up and get the 20D though/ I'm still convincing myself.
  6. I'm starting to shop around for a digital cameras. I looked at the Nikons and can't figure out why anyone would buy one. more money for less picture quality. The only thing that stand out is you can fire off alot of shots very fast and sustained.So far it seems that the digital rebel is the best bang for the buck. I'd like the 20D but that it bit more $ than I can justify. everyone here uses canon, so I was just wondering why some use Nikon.
  7. your should be proud of it. It turned out really nice
  8. it will be ready, but I will be here. I think Kelly is already there, hopefully staying out of trouble
  9. her's my new rig. most of the options are not available
  10. you can use the side plate to join the top plate with a bracket if you want more room. Although it won't be as balanced.
  11. Have you tried wearing women's underwear?
  12. we would be able to out source. not as fun a running a local sweat shop, but I think I could find way to keep busy
  13. I use automotive paint. It holds up very well. It's a bit hard to use if you don't have much experience painting though
  14. yup, somebody's gotta work around here. your handle should go out today
  15. Finally, I was starting to think you didn't like it
  16. cool, thanks. I thought there had to be another solution.
  17. I tried a friends digital rebel this weekend with the bite switch from a 35mm rebel. Same plug type I assume. I got one picture in the plane and that was the last picture taken. I checked it on the ground and same thing, one picture only. Another guy uses the same set up and has the same problem. his solution was to put a small piece of rubber band inbetween the post and the hole. that brings the plug out a little. it seems to work just fine with few malfunctions. it seems a little hokey to me. is there another fix or another way to wire the switch, or maybe a setting on the camera?
  18. You missed out then, should of made the drive. All fun jumps yesterday & light otter loads!!!
  19. depending on when it was made the difference in material is substantial. we have a jumper that has a tri 160 that packs much bigger than other tri 175. most packers run when we see him coming.
  20. you pretty much got it. We do try not to RIP the grommets out though.
  21. Some time people just rub you the wrong way. The manifest girl at your drop zone got me so pissed I didn't want to ever jump at your drop zone, that was the first year for Kapowsin and Molalla. can't remeber how to spell the name. I got over it and ended up having a good time anyway. I came back again this year. although I still remeber that bad experience. Maybe your expectations for what you think they should act like are just plain differennt. The evelotion fella's rep the company I work for and I think they do a nice job. They also like to have fun, and maybe you misread them.
  22. Damn, for that price you can send your risers in to me at VSE, and we'll put our convertion on for you.
  23. I love my infinity so much, I want to eat Salmon.It is so comfortabble I wear mine on the boat while I'm catching salmon. Sometimes I wear it while I'm grilling salmon because my infinity is so damn comfortable
