Anyone have a rivet squeezer I could borrow?

On my Charger project, I'm working on making the trim control wheel. It'll be years until I need it, but this is how it goes sometimes. The plans call for a 1/4" thick disc of 2024 as the trim wheel, notched around the edges. But I look at that and think, that's way too heavy. So I come up with this...

Free: used 6.00x6 tires and tubes

I have a pair of 6.00x6 tires and tubes that I'm pulling off my plane, which are available for free to anyone who needs a pair to roll a project around on. Not airworthy.

Recommendations for local sandblasting?

I'm at that point in my project where I need to start prepping some steel parts for welding and painting, and sandblasting seems like the logical choice. Anyone know of a good local sandblaster, or even better, a time rental shop where I can just rent the use of a sandblasting cabinet?

Board software upgraded to 3.3.0

I've upgraded the phpBB software to the latest version, which is 3.3.0. Not sure anyone will know the difference, but if you see problems, let me know and I'll see if I can figure out a solution.
