<br />The little man needed a bigger/better/faster stroller than the other kids so I'm making him a little 'dragster' unit. <br />

Re: Hi

I like it. <br /><br />Now that she has the kitchen sink, you can tell her good luck and you wish her well. <br /><br />Lock the garage door, don't answer the phone. Cause that boy's gonna need pedals next. <br />Then a motor, more speed, a tropy shelf.

Re: Hi

That is Truly COOL! Just think, with those rear wheels, no worrys about dropping off into a crack, like with a stroller, and should even handle some rougher conditions. Skinnywater, I can see that you can steer by the handle, but how is the front end, for lifting? I know you don't have to lift, with the steering, but, is it easy to pop a slight wheelie, you know to jump up onto an elevated concrete slab? Now, what kind of sides and seating are you going to put on it? Very Neat, Creative & Original Idea, Magster. ;) <br /><br />On the split up, what can I say Magster, Hang in there, and as I said before, holler if I can be of any help! Oh, I have a Double Stainless steel sink in my Attic, I put a new one in the house, holler if ya need it!

Hi there Magster! Now I know where ya been now. Great job. <br /><br />I'll agree split ups are terrible. I hope things did get worked out. Sometimes its best to make do and move on, but when the other wants to be nick picky, it just makes things horrible.<br /><br />Good to see you back....SS

Re: Hi

Pics didn't load for me but thats allright cause I'm just glad to see your name round here again.<br /><br />As for all that other stuff just remember in the long run its just stuff!! Aside from the iritation of diving it up the truth is it's all replacable and most of it youll be happier without.
