I've been following Steve's posts for about a year. Some people question him the wrong way. But I truly want to learn from him and others that post good info. I've had my posts taken in a way I didn't mean them. But I do understand how it can get frustrating when people don't read the posts and ask the same questions he has covered. But always I try to treat him and others with the utmost respect. There are far to many haters posting and I understand how it could put a nice person in a bad mood.

No Steve, I wasn't talking about the forums changing. I was talking about the change in the tone of voice some of the commenters were making with their "suggestions". I was getting tied into some overly pushy suggestions. I just felt I needed to separate myself from that. Was never my intent. If you ever took it that way my offer to help clean the shop still stands. Much respect Steve.

Wow, it's truly a privilege to see a small behind the scenes of builds like this and to see a snapshot of how your thought process works. I would have never thought of doing a cooling system like that, keeping everything nice and clean. Awesome work Steve!! You're work is inspiring. Keep the vids and builds coming. I can't wait for more!

I would love to see Steve build his passion into a thriving company with lots of employees. The good guys need to win big once in a while. I've said it before, If they made a show out of him and his work I'd watch every episode and buy the DVDs. It reminds me of OCC without the bad attitude.

woke up to use the bathroom and decided to check how the video was doing....had to deal with some late night trollage real quick LOL. I can tell summer is here and school is out, the 9th graders are running wild tonight. Big mouths, late nights, no school the next day and a single parent who is out drinking instead of watching what his kid is doing on the computer is a bad combo.

the fact that its tucked way up in the bumper behind other plastic. It doesn't see any weather.....and on top of that, the vent is one-way. When the fans are not on, the flap shuts. If it is raining, chances are my fans won't be turned on. Thanks!

no moisture guard needed, they have one-way flaps. If its raining, the fans probably won't even be on but even if they are on, the hole is way up in the bumper behind plastic. It wont get wet. Thanks anyway though :)

I knew what you meant. I have an ultrasonic fog transducer. I never figured out how to make the fog without the liquid getting all over the place while showing it off. Decided to stick to lighting effects. My next box I want to inset a video screen so I can play music videos right on the sub woofer box. And experiment with those media player visualization effects. Sony make wireless HDMI now. I'll have to check those out to see if it will do what I want.
