heywooood | 22-Aug-18 20:04 | thank you,Robert.
I planned to make it easier on myself and this way the hard part is done..no need to keep flipping the plane over to attach the lines to the top wing - it's already done. |
rgood | 22-Aug-18 20:28 | I like the tidy work space too - almost as good as the DD bench! |
heywooood | 23-Aug-18 02:34 | I appreciate that as I’m essentially working in a phone booth here..
I recently made a bit more room for myself however as my old friend, the Big Indian, has finally ‘gone west’ ...the old pinball machine mfg by Gottleib in the early 70’s gave up the ghost last weekend. My wife rescued it from a friends barn and brought it home a week after we were married 34 years ago this Nov. It was incredible the way it was built. No transistors - this one was 100% electromechanical. Miles of wiring and hundreds of relays. The amount of material, time, and effort it must have taken to build each one is not something that would ever happen now. End of an era. |
