norcal2IS crew... think of a time... and just come on over. i can help u with the detail.
maybe bbq or w/e most of hte stuff u guys should be able to do urself.
i think my stsuff will be able to last few cars.

if everyone chip in few bucks and help each other out, each car should roll out pretty fast.

start with light strokes, and harder, only short strokes, on part at a time. then knead the clay every few times.
