    Jelly.
    Makes my carbs look like they come from a sad whale family deep in the ocean.

    I don't understand you, Dave. How can you lose any of those itty-bitty little parts if you're going to be so organized? I'll bet you even have a workbench to use instead of the kitchen table or clothes dryer like the rest of us. Darned over-achievers.;)

    The Big Question is how long it took to "pose" all those parts so perfectly in their little cubbyhole bins before the pix was shot........ :)

    One carb hat seems to be leaning a bit crooked, better take them apart and put them back in the bins and re-shoot.

    You are assuming he doesn't just have a sealed display box of jets and diaphragms that he brings out, opens up and poses empty carb bodies next to for photo shoots.

    That would be more efficient.


    Sadly, you're right.

    My wife would have no sense of humor if I burnt up her kitchen table.
