Can always correct the white balance after if you can't setup the camera to capture it correctly.

I wish, I apparently am too retarded...I've tried according to the Nikon handbook that came with my camera. I think I need in person help. Nothing I do seems to improve it, it only gets worse.

Pointers?

I made a bunch of frags a couple of weeks ago, and most of them are thriving. My Red-Orange digi isn't a fan of being fragged, both pieces STNed a few days after the initial fragging.

We also have some progress on our other build!

A couple weekends ago my parents were cleaning out their garage. They found a whole bunch of duplicate power tools, and they cleaned out a pile of boxes that used to belong to my father's mother.

We came home with a bunch of sweet new (to us) power tools, which we now no longer have to purchase. I also got this awesomely eclectic tea set that used to belong to my grandmother. I think its amazingly tacky, but very endearing in an heirloom-y sort of way.
