Sorry I missed it. Pics anyone?
If anyone is interested, the United Rentals in Sterling has aluminum road signs on clearance for $5. They have maybe 20 left, they have Visitor Parking, No Parking, and one or two others. These are the real aluminum ones, maybe 12x24" or so.
I grabbed 3 while I was there renting an auger.
Their number is 703-327-2800, 23535 Overland Drive, Sterling, VA, on 606/West Ox by the NOAA radar dishes.

Well, the weather is getting cooler and it's nice to hang outside. Anyone up for another GTG? I wouldn't mind hosting again if need be -- always nice to hang out and talk shop in the fall.

"Get-To-Gether" -- GTG
Sorry -- should have made that more clear.
All you local guys, I'll keep in touch via PM and am hoping to schedule the GTG in late October (not Halloween) or early November.
"She Who Must Be Obeyed" -- SWMBO -- Not a trivial issue for those of us with "Honey Do" lists on weekends.

I haven't been playing here much, but I'm still around and still interested in the GTGs. So count me in.
Guys I need your HELP!
My girlfriends boss is looking to start building his awesome garage. But the location of how the house sits on the land and this and that makes the job complicated on how it needs to be built. He has an idea, he just needs someone to be able to design the structural build.
So what I am asking from you guys/gals is for the ones that built your dream garage or even the ones that know or have connections, do you guys/gals know anybody that could do amazing work? Her boss is an awesome guy, so I'm just trying to help him source some people and I know this is the best group of guys/gals out there.
Reply back here or PM, either or. Which ever you're more comfortable with. Thanks Guys/Gals

What a wonderful day to spend outside talking about tools, machinery and cars. We had a pretty good turnout --
Hope some of you watched the pics on-line. In case you didn't, here are a few snapshots.
Somehow, I wound up with more beer than I started with
The "watchdog" let everyone in

Here are the Fall 2010 Northern Virginia Garage Gang GTG pics! A wonderful day with many beautiful cars. The highlight of the day was "kheim's" Lambo Murcielago --- it can't get much better than seeing such a car up close and personal.
"Ole" brought his newest project purchase -- a 1959 Edsel Corsair, while "JMURiz" drove up his cherry 356 Porsche. Thanks guys!!!
Now THAT is an engine -- Lambo V12
Porsche 356
Edsel Corsair
A salute to our veterans!!! Thanks for your service Ole --

Great time had by all -- thanks for showing up guys!!!
