In reply to: In reply to: In reply to: I'm working on getting a pic of my rack. In the mean time, the race is on to make the smallest cam to fit in the old 5.25 floppy drives!! ^^ike a zero or a ballnut would likely fit. but remember, the smallest 2 zeros are body weight only. Brent haha, as opposed to the 5.25 floppy drive, which everyone knows are rated to 7kn! :lol:
only the ones made in japan or the ones that came with original commador 64's.
:D

I've had this picture floating around my HD for almost a year now, and I haven't gotten around to posting it on this thread because it was never posted on any of my on-line photo galleries. Well, today I'm home sick, and all that is gonna change!
http://colocalders.com/...C_1522_POD.sized.jpg
Origional image here: http://colocalders.com/.../DSC_1522_POD?full=1
For some reason, I don't see the other set of nuts or our tricams in this picture. The stuffed goose is mandatory gear for the crag dog. The best part is we just got the REI dividend, which will add three more cams and 2 big bros to this shot!!
Now, if only it would stop snowing...

When did climbing become a materialistic sport...for all you trad climber who thinks its cool braggen about your rack, your not real trad climber...You use your rack as a means of getting somewhere within your soul for the benefit of oneself, and a natural process...Not to show off who has a bigger rack...I'm disgusted by this thread...Who cares about the size of your rack, the size of your balls, the kind of crack you stick your fingers in, fuck its climbing its not a material thing....Fuck, you all might as well move to the city, buy a Porshe and become cocky fucks...opps to late, you already posted a picture of your rack...Brutal
have a good day

Oafy, with any (?) due respect, you sound like an idiot. Unless you're just joking, which isn't apparent in any way. There's nothing wrong with having your opinion, but why the hell would you even look at the thread if it caused you so much pain? The title should have been enough to keep you away, now leave the gear whores alone, I have much to learn and aspire to.
peace

jakedatc,
I am also seeing a lot of shiny unscratched gear there. The only wear I am spotting is the rope end of the QD's. Maybe we can get you to wear out some of that other equipment this summer. :)

Dude, I have two AMT (long before ERTL bought them) 289 Cobra models I built when I was 15-16, (we're talking, 1969-1970). one has the original 289 (but has a real aluminum hood Imade to replace the plastic one that got lost, and in the other I put a hilborn injected SBC, and has the "LeMans Hardtop" that used to come with the old AMT kit.
I still have them, wanna see Pics?
