Bloody hell thats great!

The look on your competitor's face with an expensive AR when he finds out that he have been outshot by a $2 shovel .... priceless!

Halarious. Those 3 guns boys would just love to get beaten by this...

Impressive.

Now: can he build a 90-seat jet, flown by mainline pilots, configured with 76 seats, at A-380 pay, from five old shovels?

That is really cool. A few years ago I found this guys website. He designs and builds his own jet engines out of his garage. They turned out far better than any turbocharger jet engine that I had seen.
