Can't is a four letter dirty word
Fuller said this brought back good memories but had not had to work is such a "primitive" shop in a long time. I totally embarrassed myself he had to teach me how to use a cut off wheel on a grinder for the first time.Maritime said:

Bryan said he would like to just fabricate all day instead of all the other stuff to feed the machine and pay the bills. Both Junior and Fuller are pushing Zeke on his fab skills. Two different guys with two different approaches and it seems to cover the entire fabrication spectrum.

Ha, I imagine. We all wish we could do the things we love 100% of the time but most of us have to do stuff we have to do to pay the bills etc. If I were Bryan I would try to get a well paying gig in someone elses shop and just be the fab guy, but that may be hard these days, I am purchasing manager for a large trucking company but still end up doing all kinds of other stuff because we are always short staffed.

I have a good friend who was a plumber and now is one of the premier banjo makers in the country. His passion became a job. It is about doing your best no matter what your are doing. We are making Zeke do the hard stuff and he whines about it at times but usually steps up to the plate. We took Fuller trail riding and Zeke took a pretty good spill and we took him back home and we took off to do more riding. 5 minutes later Zeke was back behind us. We fall down get up and keep going. I was a proud papa at that moment.Maritime said:

I would be too. I have a hard enough time getting my son off the computer or x-box. He whines about it but I just walk in, turn it off, grab a tool or a fishing pole or keys to the wheeler and we go outside and fix something, fish or ride and within minutes he has forgotton the electronics, but just as fast the next time he has forgotten how much fun the non-electronic things were and we start all over again. I hope he looks back at the times I "Made him" go outside and do something and realizes it was for his own good and learning.
It might depend on which RC model, but if they maintained the same red throughout the years, the color is called Winning Red and the Honda code# is R258. The silver is Force Silver Metallic and the code# is NH411M. The ColorRite code for the red is a base coat of 1090 and a top coat of 2530. The silver is 2992. I got this from the RC51.
