I should have kept my mouth shut on the truck finally getting fixed. Only had it back out of the shop one day and the tire went flat. Had to have help getting the spare on and get the truck back over to them to find out that when the tie rod broke it must have done damage to the rim. Now they had to order another factory rim to replace the busted rim. All I can hope for now is that next year turns out better then this past year.

DP Thank you for answering the question for Rudedog on the UNO. I know I would like one and trying to see what I'm able to do to get one. My disability case is on standby as I wait for a trial date to find out the final outcome.
Yes I have seen Pacheco's work. They are all works of art and love seeing the new ones with the laser engraved pictures in the leather. Another I have to wait on getting.

My pleasure, Bush - and I wish you good results with your case. I know it's not easy...

As for covers, I'm strictly a "wraps" guy. One of the many beauties of the BB is that it fits into pockets. I would never dream of erasing that by covering it with something thick. But IF I was going to, it would be with one of Pacheco's options.

But I won't.

Plus, we've had some pretty good fun changing wraps over the years. They're cheap enough that we can get away with it, and it feels like we're getting new BBs each time we do. This orion one has some staying power though, since it can be matched to a whole GANG of different drip tips (as if I change them on the BB).

Best of luck (all), and Happy Freeday!

I like the wraps, too! And am in total agreement that the Orion is one of the best choices we'd made (not that the Wu Tang was anywhere CLOSE to shabby!). I DO change out the drip tips on my B Box often, and it's fairly easy to go matchy-matchy, or coordinated, at least. :)

Up early tomorrow, or sleep in?

The colors for this weekend will be: black, brown, light blue, dark gold, dark blue, clear, green.

Wu Tang was indeed QUITE nice. Ah, the memories.

Matchy-matchy? YOU? Difficult to imagine... ;)
