I went Jeeping in Uwharrie with Andy, Bryan Shapess, and Bryan Garland. It was a pretty awesome time, even though it was very wet. There was a lot of slipping and sliding. The downhill sections were treacherous. Have you ever tried to guide 5000 lbs of sliding steel down a

I think I'm going to start taking pictures of projects and posting instructions. I always find the instructions to all sorts of things lacking. The only way I figure stuff out is to sit down and actually look at it. Hopefully this will help some random internet user,
