  1. Looks more like a NEO to me. Not that theres anything wrong with that. My first three rigs looked just like Reactors. Gotta start some where. K
  2. the Magic Kingdom Thats priceless
  3. Morbid? I think not. Thats just good marketing. Can't fault a business for taking their product to the customers.
  4. Now this is a thread worth reading. Lots of good BASE info going on here. Face it, Your all a bunch of fuck wads. Get a life will ya. Humm. I wonder if this will result in my very first banning? No great loss considering what seems to be the main focus of this forum these days. K
  5. I can't beleive that youre not really retarded.

    Oceans 13

    Ever paid attention to a maths scene in a movie? I never paid attention to math in school when it mattered. Why hell would I pay attention to it during a movie?
  7. I'll make you a deal. Fly me over and pay for my hotel and I'll do all the repacks you want.
  8. Excuse me but didn't you see the movie, Drop Zone? They had rigs that not only made it through airport metal detectors, you couldn't see the bulk when they all got on the plane. It was in a movie, it has to be true. Hows this fully hidden rig look to you? Yes, he is in fact wearing a fully functioning rig and yes, he has in fact jumped it lots of times. Making a rig that would get past a metal detector is certainly not impossible. Its really just a matter of money. How bad do you want it? K
  9. The difference between a "heavy" walking foot and a "medium" or "light" walking foot is really just a matter of what type of hook set up the machine has. If the hook is horizontal, meaning you'd have to lay the bobbins flat into the hook race from a door on top of the sewing bed, then it is typically considered a heavy machine. If the the hook assembly is in a vertical configuration meaning the bobbin is first inserted into a bobbin case, then bobbin and case are both inserted under the sewing bed and onto the hook race vertically from the bottom of the machine, then the machine is considered "light" duty. Why is this? Beats me. I've asked this same question of many machine manufactures and there answers never satisfy. O.K. What ever. I have a "Light duty" walking foot machine that out performs any "heavy" duty walking foot machine I have have ever owned and I've owned quite a few of them. I sold all the heavy ones and kept my light duty walking foot. On thin slippery plys of material such as f111, zp, taffeta, silk, ect..., the vibrating feet or "walking" presser feet as they are more commonly referred to, tend to cause excessive amounts of bunching. Of course every machine is different and undoubtedly some one out there has a heavy machine that does great work on light materials but that machine would be the exception to the rule, not the norm. K
  10. First off, all machines are dog fed in one way or another but the asnwer I think your looking for is... Walking foot machines are better for heavier work such as multiple layers of courdura and webbing. Standard feed or needle feed machines are better for light work such as ZP or F111. If you plan to do more work on light materials than heavy, then I'd say stay with a standard feed or needle feed. Walking foot machines rarely work well on very light weight materials but with a standard feed machine, you'll still be able to do moderate to "kinda heavy" work with good results K
  11. Finally something worth reading.
  12. You have chosen a sport that is inherently dangerous. What do you expect? If your that worried about it, perhaps you should take up a safer sport. Just because you don't jump at Eloy doesn't mean that you wont burn it.
  13. I've experienced the same thing recently. I dropped 25 lbs almost over night then nothing for three weeks. I decided to take a one week break from the diet but did not go crazy by eating a bunch of crap. I also continued my work out schedule. After that week was over, I restarted the diet and dropped 15 lbs more in a very shot period of time. I think the statement about hitting a plateau is spot on but I also think that you need to throw your body a curve ball every once in a while. Try changing your work out routine a little and or maybe for a short while, try adding a little more carbs to the diet So far it has worked for me. Good luck. K
  14. Lots of great info. I'll keep checking to see if anyone else has any more info to offer. Thanks everyone Kevin
  15. Any body out there have any experience with concrete counter tops? A friend recommended that I try them out. Any thoughts?

    APOOPA

    It's official. the BASE forums have truly gone to hell. For gods sake. Will someone please post something worth reading? On second thought, never mind. Perhaps it time to move on. C-Ya Good luck P.S Live and learn or you wont do either and, he who walks away........ wins I'm out
  17. I remember a time when something like that might earn a guy the old tar and feather treatment. If your going to burn a sight, you might as well do it so that the whole nation knows about it. Fucking dick heads.
  18. Thats exactly what I ws going to say. Good eye. Kevin
