        Yeah, 30 more pounds and I'll be happy. Can't play if you've assumed room-temperature.

          Doctors made me lose 30 pounds and have me on this no sugar no carbohydrates diet that got rid of my diabetic condition. Yes room temperature no play. Carry on.

          This is me at 167 pounds wearing one of my Outer Limits masks we sell. Iron Giant in progress in the BKG.

            Congratulations! No small feat.

                Out of the house, on her own.

                    I started a 3" motor-bulkhead master. This diameter is just big enough to get intermediate sized brushless motors in there, side-by-side.











                    A forward 3" bulkhead, outfitted with two servos is the objective of this work. I'm mocking up such a unit, once validated for correct operation it will be taken apart and the parts used as masters to make tools for resin casting of the production parts.

                        I love those Alfa bits and pieces. Everything that I could have wanted (and had to make) is there, in that one photograph. Bravo!

                          Yeah, I did all the grunt work decades ago when Thor and I were on speaking terms. Now that the 1/72 ALFA is in Bob's hands it seems I'm back in the loop as far as production goes on that fine kit.

                              Is the single motor driving one gear or is it driving both gears so all three the pinion and spurs are meshed?

                                You're the guy who gave me the steer as to how to simplify the gear-splitter by driving one of the two spurs off the motor pinion. Mesh the two propeller shaft spur gears and the job is done.

                                You saved me a lot of work, Rick, with that steer as my initial POS gear-splitter was temperamental, expensive, and labor intensive -- a device only Rube Goldberg would appreciate.

                                Your three-gear unit saved the day. See! Canadian's can be useful!

                                (I now seek a crow-bar to pry my nose out of your rather substantial ass).
