    That's awesome that you got yourself hooked up with a new CNC plasma cutter from Fast Cut, can't get no better than that, that is so so so generous of them. Brent after all of what you've had to walk through its awesome to see you getting abundantly blessed. Thank God, you've had a hard go of it and now you've beginning to bounce back even more and more. Cool.

    I know it's disappointing, but at least you made it back. You guys do live with some very beautiful country, we don't have that down in the state of Kansas. The garage was cool, but Fast was a little interesting. I am amazed at the two tables you put together and the stuff they could turn out. I love Bert and John's place, a guy could get lost looking at all the stuff. Cool road trip!

    Hi Brent, sorry the great adventure didn't happen to have the ramp truck in it past a few kms, at least you got a few k's out in it.
    You where talking about the scenery, I spent 3months in Vancouver and on the island of Vancouver back in 1996, I live in Western Australia, where what we thought of mountains are speed bumps compared to Vancouver flying in after 25 hours + in the air, and seeing real mountains absolutely took my breath away,
    We relatively flat landers have no concept of how big and magnificent they are, thanks for taking us for the drive along

    An awesome trip and a great comedy pairing if there ever was one. Despite the Ramp Truck not being there for the whole time.. arriving home all smiles etc. I wonder if it would have been ‘all smiles’ if the Ramp Truck had made the journey ?
    Comfort is a wonderful thing. Maybe the ramp truck needs done tweaks without going overboard? (After it’s fixed of course)
    That CNC is the ‘Dogs Obvious’ FastCut have picked two of the best fabricators and ‘Tubers’ out there in UA-cam Land. (Other great fabricators are available)
    Have you a buyer for your old CNC, Brent?
    Keep working together there is an obvious energy and friendship happening before our eyes it’s a rare thing that makes me smile when watching a UA-cam video.
    Best wishes from Scotland.

    I worked with the GMC cabovers when they were new and overheating of the original powerplant was always a concern. The main issue is airflow through the grill and back to the radiator. Towards the end of production, GM made a tunnel from the grill to the front of the radiator and a deep shroud on the fan side to really pull the air in. Without a core support like a normal pickup acting like a dam in the wind, air goes around the radiator instead of going through it. The tunnel cured that.
