    Ali,

    Thanks for showing us your progress! I know I still owe you an email about attaching the buckle. I promise I'll get to it soon, I don't want to be the one holding up your production. :-)

    No, you really don't want it to stop. And btw, at your age it doesn't go very fast anyway. In a few years you'll think it's going at warp speed.
