Does it work this time?

Not sure how that happened. Did the same thing both times!

Not as Loud as Tim's but 4 watts of valve is still enough to annoy the neighbours.
This however is what I use to annoy the wife

Love the Vox

I've had mine about 12 months AC30S1, my goodness its loud and you need to crank it up to get that Briam May sound, the neighbours love me

I had a Vox AC30 Twin around 30 years ago, wished I'd kept it now as they seem to retain their value.

Tim.

Brilliant! Back to the rain discussion.

Nothing slips by this bunch

Awesome. I love how you can just push your house down the road for a change of scenery!!

You sure can... with one of these

Is that a ridiculously large bulldozer, or just a very small man?

scootr · Post by **scootr** » Sun Mar 22, 2020 10:51 pm

yes

A quick bit of google shows ~
This bulldozer has a gross weight of 183 tons and is powered by two 675 hp (503 kW) Caterpillar engines placed horizontally opposed, which deliver a total combined output of 1,350 hp (1,010 kW).
...
ACCO Super Bulldozer
Length 40 feet (12 m)
Width 23 feet (7.0 m) (blade)
Height 10 feet (3.0 m) (ripper)
Weight 183 tons

That should move her but, I doubt much would be useable

Since the Zed took up my old shop space in the garage. I am now converting some old horse space in the barn to a wood shop for the planes.
Once the shop is operational - the sky is the limit. LOL

Cool.

I used to be into this but never kept it up.

Jealous of you!!!

I't been on the back burner for a bit my flightline mate met a girl, got married... took him out of the action for awhile... but he's coming back now and I'm trying to finish the new hobby room so we can play with these toys again. I love the old warbirds and biplanes. Your man Mitchell designed one of the very best ever. Tragic story there but he got it done and turned the tide. I have a beautiful 1/6th scale MkIX

Cut the grass for the first time yesterday, and then again today.

Also managed to get the cladding finished on this nearly. Amazing what you can do when it stops raining.
