I'm a daddy!!!We just got home from the hospital yesterday. I don't remember how to post pictures on this forum, and frankly, too tired to read up and remember. So, you guys just get the announcement. Pictures to come later.
Steve, I asked my little girl what she wanted to a birth gift, and she said she wants a 706... looks like you're the man to talk to about it. Once I get a picture up of her, you'll send her one :)

Thanks for all the comments guys! Brooke (mommy) is doing great. Because there were some slight complications and the baby was big, we went with a C-section. But, Brooke is tough and the surgery was very quick so we're expecting her to be back at 100% real soon. I'm going to check into getting Annsley a lifetime fishing/hunting license in Florida once we get her birth certificate. This junk is cool. Can't wait til she can fish with me.

Brooke is now a Mom and I haven't met too many Moms who weren't tough. Congrats again Will you're a very lucky young man.

Nice job Steve. What kind of paint are you using if you don't mind me asking?
|

powder coat, a little rough. but this real was absolutely trashed. the emblem was in such bad shape i thought it did not have one.

good stuff steve! look forward to more projects that you come up with. if you ever get a wild hair to fabricate a pink 706, i'll buy it from you for her.

They have some really cool colors available for powder coating. LIke candies and metallics. I have a friend who has done it but the dude now lives in Wuxi City, China...sucks.
