Mission Success on the Juliet Left Orbital thanks to @SEAN WAYNE!

Many thanks O-Teammate 🪖👍

Still on the hunt for X-Metal MARS Beaters! No lenses or rubber set needed (One to One trade for an El Zach custom Pit Boss 1? 😉)!

Hallooooooooo Oakley Forum and my esteemed O-Teammates.

It is now 148 days until my next Birthday…given availability 😏…it is certainly not too early to start beating the bushes for just “One more MARS!” Needs to be a Crater…or Jordan.

As usual prefer a beater…structurally sound…does not need a box or coin…or even lenses or rubber.

I just wrapped my last one in Cactus and can’t imagine stripping it after how hard it was! 😅🌵

Still want one that I can change regularly…and experiment with. Next one I’m hoping to try Rattler again 😏🐍

Sooooo…ya got an extra in that bottom drawer?!? Drop me a note.

Thanks Team! 🪖👍

Very cool, you’ve made a neat job of those! What’s next…?

Thanks!

If I can get my paws on just “One more MARS” I got a huge supply of Prairie Rattler I’m wanting to try…stuff is thin so might need a backing. But I have enough for testing before wrapping.

Worked well on my Valve 1.0 after I cracked the code on it.

Did not see that one. Believe it or not...I don't watch war movies (well...I don't count the Expendibles series, Chuck Norris, Arnold, or Stallone movies as war movies per se...).

Last one I watched of my own volition was "Saving Private Ryan" back when it first came out. I was at the U.S. Embassy in Budapest...we actually had a showing of it in a local theater and invited a whole theater full of Hungarian military folks to watch it...so I 'had' to watch it. Very well done...but dang...hit way too close to home for this solider! :eek:

I watch stupid comedies and superhero flicks these days...that's about it! Major Payne is about as deep as I want to watch on a war flick ;)

Moo MARS. Yup...certainly possible. I have some cowhide in the appropriate thickness...also some kid skin (I'd bet the OEM was kid skin). My Blue Suede MARS (which I believe is now the Cactus MARS) was kid skin I dyed blue.
