    Crapoluis (the god of scrap) and whale update

    Crapolius (spelled it wrong in the title) the fickle god of scrap finally got tired of the practle jokes and smiled on us today. the first 1000 hard drives will arive next week. .

    to all you noobs and others who get discoraged as I do on occasion. if you look at the Whale time line you will see I have been working on this deaql for over 7 months. and it is still moving slowly and is touch and go even now. but im one of those hard headed dudes that refuse to give up. Some times it pays off and some times it dosen't. but then thats what aday in a scrappers life is all about.

    lol im remote even for the florida panhandle which, in it self is remote. I'm 600 miles from anywhere that counts. these first ones I am going to tear down for an infusion of cash. but I have had a couple of good offers for shipping them whole. by the time I pay for help there is little difference in net profit.
