Sandman/Robatoy/Spanish inquisition
I had to access The Wreck via Google Groups today, because my news
server is down. Somehow it posted under my old name Sandman. (my addy didn't change) I have tried to fix the nickname issue and it sure as heck wasn't meant to confuse anybody. Sorry if this caused any inconvenience to anybody and I highly doubt it did. G 0=BF0 Rob (This was in reply to an e-mail I received on this topic, and frankly it sounded a bit like the Spanish Inquisition.) SOMEBODY SAY SPANISH INQUISITION??????? |

NOBODY EXPECTS THE SPANISH INQUISITION!!! is what I think you meant to say. I knew it was you instantly. It's only been, what, two weeks since you changed? - - LRod Master Woodbutcher and seasoned termite Shamelessly whoring my website since 1999 http://www.woodbutcher.net |

I saw a Victorian "Faberge egg" made from one recently, and I want to recreate it. Equally advice on good surface fiishing techniques for cocnut. Obviously I'll need a nice smooth finish on it, so as not to loose too much airspeed. (I've just posted Python - killfile me now!) I want plans on how to build a trebuchet..a trebuchet big enough to hurl.....say... a cow? |
