Somehow, NIMAL PATRICK's thread translates automatically on my phone. I think it's because it is a Canadian phone. I wonder if there is a language setting you guys can use so you can follow more easily. Or, use his thread as a french lesson, and a pneumatics lesson!

My phone translates as well after it first prompts and asks if I want to. Since my youngest is a 4 year French student I make her read it first, then translate

"Normal" is overrated.

Funny how adding primer to your project seems like a huge milestone and it feels like your now making great progress. I do like the lines of that frame.

I'm really liking the frame @KJV is using, looks great in grey!
