    ah, you created three separate threads. you probably could have replied to the first to get them all in one topic thread if posting multiple images in the same post is stressful.

    yes, spicoli is sort of a role model for me. that is my standard reply for anything mechanical that is all fkd up.

    sad to see this one. my wife was also upset when she walked by the computer and saw it. hope he had it insured!

    Just curious, where did this happen and how long ago? Any onther info on what the owner is going to do with it, start over maybe? I agree that you can only hope it was fully insured. I know that I would be a wreck if something like this occured to me after spending all that time and money only to loose it right after finishing it. Scott...

    Maybe my eye site isn't what it should be as I had checked the other two posts on this and didn't see a link to the original story of this sad ending. Thanks for the reply though, Scott...
