Out of curiosity, is there any general consensus as to the running order of Bolano's books?

#62

Right On DS!

^ really like those Samurais

haha

just when people start thinking that they might be competitive in this thing, GMC Motorsports shows up again...

those are seriously rad SR's...

^ Damn...

Roy6 laying the law down- on a couple of fronts.

Nice work, Sir!

#62 Strike Golds

nothing ever shows in wide shots, so here are some bad, light-deficient close ups.

#62 Strike Golds

Not much to see. They look like a trainwreck, but I still like them.

isaak- SG's looking a bit big...still nice though!

Yeah, I agree.. I really like the top block, but the legs are annoyingly wide- so I don't think that they're ever going to look too cool or very slick...

That said: if I ever get around to working on the projects that I thought that I'd be working on, the extra room will be nice- as it's NO fun having to awkwardly crouch down to weld something on,or very near, the floor in tight jeans.

#62 SG1103EX

picking up some weird diagonals, they don't really show in the pictures

#62 Strike Golds 1103EX

Stealth Mode Engage!!

as far as tactics go- Strike Golds are the mules, SR's are the back ups.

#62 USA

SG 1103EX Post Soak 2

shrank a bit more, still big, getting pressed into service anyways. No mercy from here on out..

Your shrinkage measurements are almost exactly half of mine, what size are yours IsaakM?

#34 Birmingham, UK

They're 30's

I expected to them shrink more than they did. Maybe my water's not as hot as I thought it was. Guess I'll see what happens after round two.

Oh, And #62 Washington State USA

the vans are just house shoes.

If the measurements that I initially scribbled down are right- they shrank approx .5" in the waist measured flat, 1.25" in the inseam, .375" in the front rise, and .5" in the rear.

#62

Strike Gold 1130EX Post Initial Soak

Still not completely dry. Shrank a bit.

Will soak again in the next day or two.

They're both 30's- pretty much TTS. I had SR's in 31's already- they're about one size big. I thought that the Strike Golds should come out close to an SR in 30 if they shrink as much as I think they will.

Sorry, just trying to figure how to get the pictures so they're not gigantic...

try this again:

SG 1130EX pre soak

IH SR's presoak:

hopefully they're not giant this time...

off to a great start...
