no not really, Im doing all the work myself and so I was wondering if anyone wanted to tag along, pizza and beer would be the payment....maybe some wings
also I am in the process of putting the heads because I spent all day cleaning all the damn holes from the gunk they had in. the studs would not even go in half way down.
so Im just finishing up the heads and tomorrow the formy will breath after the new heart transplant.....
