Waiting for a replacement LED (should arrive in the next couple of Days) and I bought a new VDM Module for the Apex, so I should be good to go there. Will test it tonight to make sure

Shouldn't those two knobs be kissing fish? Looking good.

I was going to say that they were upsidedown!!!!

Great job Jeff,
Better late than never.

 

[DolphinLVR]

LOL

Thanks Dave! (I Think)

Dont take me wrong. Some times life and priorities get in the way of our hobby. I would rather wait or put something off, until I was able to do it right. Especially when it is going to be up front and center.
Doing things ourselves is great for our confidence and able's us to help other in the future. Now you know what type of hinge needs to be used in that application. And how many coats of finish it will take to make to keep your doors flat. (well so far) LOL

 

[DolphinLVR]

hahaha I agree Dave!

Was just kidding with yah and I know you were as well, Like you I want to make sure things are done right
