  666th Day Of Construction Snapshots
Most of my projects are mysteriously always finished within a certain combination of days, hours or weeks
to form the number 666. I couldn't just resist making the deadline for SOMAC just that! It was celebrated exactly 666 days (17 Oct 2005 @ 23:30) after I came up with the idea and made a todo list.... Little did I now that a "minor" idea on the 21 Dec 2003 @ 23:30 would evolve into a two long year project. The number 666 is as you know the number of the beast, and it resembles well with my projects cause they are always a "beast" to finish and in their own way their own unique beast! These pictures are from the little 666th day of construction celebration performed on the exact minute of inital project start. Also a friend of mine (Svein Engelsgjerd) contributed with what he believes to be the true origin of SOMAC....it's inventor Stone Oakvalley! (I only had some crappy cider....give me back my Tyrkisk Pepper booze and Jęgermeister!).
