First detailing e-book finished

I'm happy to announce that my first e-book is finished. Yesterday I uploaded all my files and pictures to a community server and now Yancy will take over and begin the process of digitizing it.

Digital Mock-up
Here's a mock-up of the rough draft on my iPad, this is a chapter on how to divide up the panels of a car into smaller sections for machine compounding and polishing.





After Yancy finishes digitizing it and adding all the bells and whistles it will then be available via all the major digital publication outlets as well as a print version.

Dedicated to the DA Polisher
The topic of this first e-book is specifically how to use a DA Polisher to buff out a car. This would include these tools and any other similar tools,

• Porter Cable 7424XP and all previous versions
• Meguiar's G110v2 and all previous versions
• Griot's Garage 6" Random Orbital Polisher
• Shurhold Dual Action Polisher
• Kestrel DAS-6
• DAS-6 PRO
• DeWALT DW443

It's very detailed and covers pretty much anything anyone new to machine polishing would want and/or need to know to get professional results the first time and every time.

There's lots of tips and techniques for experienced DA users too...


No time frame as of yet as to when it will be ready to go as Yancy is just now starting on his portion of the project plus behind the scenes we have a lot of cool projects in the works.


This project dramatically cut down on my forum time but at least for now I should be online to start playing catch-up.

Do you know pricing yet for the e-book?

Not really, I'm technical... I'll leave things like this up to management...

Sorry I couldn't make it. Truth be told I've been working on the book an average of around 12 hours a day 6-7 days a week. This last Sunday, Monday and Tuesday I was at work before 8:00am and turning the alarm on and locking the doors at midnight.

I'm actually looking forward to having this weekend off to work on my own projects.

Corey did swing by this last Sunday after leaving your place and we went and had a great lunch at the nearby Crackerbarrel
