    Well not going to say that I haven't missed your uploads but family comes first. No one can fault you for taking the time for that. your channel is good enough that the audience will still be here when your ready.

      Growing up in the South, as a kid, I would be on my YZ80 zipping down the powerline easements and every now and then there would be a big banana spider web between the tie down cables and the pole and if you took a shortcut through there, you'd get a face full of banana spider. Of course we didn't wear helmets so you were left to deal with a hand size spider on your face while doing 40 mph at 12 years old. The kinds of things that teach you decision making!

    Chad, there is nothing more important in life than your family. The bond that your family has is one of the main reasons we all love Chads's Fab. You take all the time you need. Us fans will be here when you do post new viideos. Your mechanical knowledgs and life lessons are worth the wait. God Bless you and your family!

    Chad: It is so nice to see how well you have raised you kids. Involving them in your craft is super. People who have not tried wiring have no idea how hard it is to do that.

    We took a 3 week trip from the Midwest out to Utah, Arizona and Colorado. Our daughter worked in Cedar City at the Shakespere Festival. We met her and her friend and traveled down to the Grand Canyon. Time with family is priceless and precious. Glad you spend quality time with yours. I even had the chance to meet Paul and Michelle from Fab Rats. Lovely people...Peace.

    Don't worry about Utube. Time with your family is #1 priority. Teaching the boys to work on their own vehicles is something most kids lack today. Sadly, most parents would rather have the kids playing video games rather than teaching them about life skills. Love your words of wisdom at the end, Chad. And enjoy your family time.

      Heh emboss a logo on them next time for the lulz. If you make the logo a cut out but keep the cut then import it into you slicer as two objects it'll print the first layer out solid as normal but the pattern of the print will leave the logo visible. It's a subtle but neat effect.

    In answer to your question about the box on the dash: Well, we all know Paul's taste is pretty much in his mouth, but it does have a kind of steampunk look which might be OK. Could you form a removable cover for it? Maybe if he sees something he likes, he will relent.

    I grew up in Florida and walked into several of those spider webs. We knew them as Golden Orb spiders which are the same thing as banana spiders. I think banana spider may just be a more generic term. Anyway. I saw a special on those spiders and tribes in other countries used their webs to make fishing nets because they were so strong. Enjoy the channel. Thanks and have fun on vacation.
