Hank,
You are right. It's about time we have a good old fashioned movie night. Jonathan and I will step up and host this one.
When: Friday September 16th
Time: 7:30pm
What: Jonathan's choice- Double Feature- Drum roll please... We will be watching Princess Diaries and Princess Diaries 2...
From Jonathan: Someday we'll get that movie intro produced. I think it would be awesome for the Austin HT gang to produce our own mini-movie. I have access to almost everything required, it's just a matter of time to do it. I've set up DVD intros on my HTPC. It's quite simple if you're...
Hank, I do have an older sister but she's already married, sorry! Doc and I are going to the grapevine market for the wine tasting tomorrow night and then we'll head over to your place. We should arrive anytime between 8 and 9. We may bring a friend as long as it's okay with you. ;)...
The model 64 is fairly tedious to put together, but I assembled it by myself in a couple nights. Could have done it in one evening, but they forgot to include a couple of screws in the package and I had to go to the hardware store to get replacements. Some help with cast iron table may be in...
Check into a variable tooth blade, they work well for both ripping lumber and cutting MDF. Porter Cable makes a reasonably priced one. If you want the best period, then look into the Forrester WoodWorker III.
From Jonathan: I've never done any kits because when we (Igor and I) review the schematics and parts there's always something that isn't up to par. With tube amp kits it's usually the transformer. Amps are relatively simple devices, compared to, say, a CD player; Igor has designed a few of them...
I think perhaps I left off another possibility. Buy the HK for the theater, save a few more pennies and pick up a used VTL ST-85 for around $800-900 and pair it with a preamp I already have.
DRY HUMOR ALERT! DRY HUMOR ALERT!
BTW: After listening to a message Raelene left on my voicemail I think it is reasonable for me to say that she is easily one of the best humorists in our group. I'm still ROTFLMAO
Nils warned all of you a long time ago about my dry humor. ;)
Jonathan may...
Keep in mind that I'm just coming at this from a spouses point of view and from my own personal taste as I put in my two cents. If the events were tailored to fit both husband and wife you might have more interest and increased attendence. That is of course if you want us wives around. As far as...
"Hey, you're the one who went and got married" Mark, Just because he went and got married doesn't mean that you're not welcome here as you always were. Come over anytime! Or I can let him spend the night at your house as long as you kids don't get in trouble. Should he bring his own...
