Meanwhile, Joe's looking a little too happy there. Umm, Joe, there something we should know?::
Drilling the pilot hole for the jiggy saw:
Oh yeah, Charlie's also a cutter:

Hello, Head Beer Wench of the Apocalypse!
The test fit:
Joe uses his 1337 Ninja skills to pop that bad boy into place. Chuck would be jealous:
And a perfect fit:

Here's Charlie looking normal:
Broseph kicks it old school and sets up his turntable:
And becomes DJ Broseph. Spin that -ish Broseph!:

Finishing the centering ring for the inside tube the fins will be mounted to. More to come on that later:
Meet Toilet Bowl Joe:
Charlie gives a little "I Toldja so!" to Toilet Bowl Joe for not listening to him the first time:
Random fun fact: Chuck Norris lost both legs in a car accident and still managed to walk it off.

Here's our inner tube thingie. The fins will seat inside the Norris approved aluminum channel. Here we mark the lines so we can get the proper spacing and alignment:
The Norris Approved aluminum channel will be riveted to the inner tube thingie. Here's Charlie drilling a starter hole for the first rivet:
All was going well until Charlie broke the pneumatic rivet gun:
OMG, you killed the rivet gun! You bastard!
Think we're gonna call Charlie "Kenny" from now on. _________________ Special thanks to our sponsors:

Welp, since Kenny pretty much ruined our day (Thanks Kenny!), we finished off by inventing a better chip clip to help keep our peanut butter stuffed pretzels fresh, crunchy, and salmonella free:
Man, I think I'm going n00b hunting:
The super deluxe mega chip clip 3000, throwin' horns:
That's all for now. See ya next time. _________________ Special thanks to our sponsors:

Aren't the rivets going to get in the way of the motor casing?
It's a Harbor Freight tool.... it can't handle Charlie's hard-core work ethic... that, or something else was reflecting off his noggin. _________________ RD

You guys obviously have some fun with this!
I'd be scared as to what the result would be if your group and my group got together.... I'm sure "good behavior" wouldn't be part of it.....

I can't believe we don't have any comments about the Santa Mickey below the Cher poster and lava lamp.
