Maybe this is the winter you build something!

Hey it's me. Just reminding you to please consider building something this winter.  From a new power cable to speakers, maybe new acoustic panels you DIY or even speakers or a sweet preamp kit.

You'll have a lot of fun, and learn a ton.

It's weird to me that when I suggest Audiophiles might enjoy building stuff themselves I get flack.  "I don't like that! Stop promoting DIY! It will never be as good!"

Whatever. I think building is fun and educational.

I am going to rebuild the engine in my son's 72 Barracuda 440. She has lost some zing so it is time to go through her. Be a nice 2 month project. Great bonding time.

I used to take the owner's Chrysler Imperial to pick up donuts for break time at Vermont Mattress Company, Burlington, VT. 440 with push button shifters on the dash board.

Incredible. "Who want's to go for donuts"? Me, Me, Me

@elliottbnewcombjr nothing like a big block. Love it when he comes home for us to work on his pride and joy. This has the pistol grip 4 speed. Just that hideous lime green has got to go. 
 

Great memories eh.

Promoting DIY is great, but please try to understand that some people (me being one of them!) just do not like DIY/building things and that does not make us wrong, just different. What's right for one person is not necessarily right for everybody.
