I have to agree with big Tim Nolan on this one. The Sand Shark is one ugly puppy!!!! I have played with this one a number of times and always came up short, only to throw it back in the box from whence it came, never to grace my work bench again.

Ira Dahm is one of the most imaginative builders I have ever met. Frankly the guy scares me he's so good! Ira likes to take big things and make them compact, and it always seems to work out design wise.

I came across a Sand Shark at our last meeting and picked it up. I decided to give old Mr. Butt Ugly one more try. Now I go into these things never having a clue as to how they will come out. This was no exception.
