Hey Neil, Yes thats a very good example, I dont mind a lil theory, But when the theory turns into conjecture or starts off topic........ That get's Tom goin, Gene Added note: He just wants to promote the hobby in a positive lite.

RE: IW members
I got in on tha tail end, Some banter bout 2 stroke theory, Didnt read the whole thing. David W. posted a cool vid of his rigger, I comented he got awfull close to tha bank. We were laughing bout it, I logged out, Guess later something occured and Wham! The guilty party was suspended 180 days........ Gene Note: May have not been what was said, As much as the reoccurance of it [8D]

RE: IW members
Ahh Ok, Ya know back in the early years of IW, I used to watch the forum for Tom when he went on vacation. Yes I know me with moderator/admin powers.....Scary! [:D] But we hardley had any probs. Now I will admit that as of late things have been different. To me if a member is creating havoc on multiple posts, boot em and business as normal. Just my spin on tha subject, Gene

RE: 21 Tunnel Talk
Yup, know what ya mean, I use DuBro couplers, not as bad as some others. Try sloshing your parts in isopropyl alcohol before soldering helps too, Gene

RE: 21 Tunnel Talk
Hi Danny, Well I dont know bout crimp after solder..... I tin the end of the cable and put a drop of flux in the coupler, Add even heat and let the silver solder flow in till the coupler is full. The silver content in stay brite is WAY stronger than the std 60/40 rosin core solder. Glad to hear your getting the boat dialed in, Sounds like your close, Gene
