        Not into speedway now, sons are though - eldest off to a meeting tonight (hour and a half plus trip) Kings Lynn vs Ipswich (he's a witches fan and helps out on the track at home meetings - start/finish line, the youngest does corner 3)

            Sorry to report that alas this build has been terminated big time ,unfortunately my daughters cat got hold of the turret and totally mullered the weapon ,so after all that work what was left is in the bin , I will find a replacement for the trilogy but first perhaps a break away from this ive a little number coming in the post that I'm quite enthusiastic about in the mean time I'll go through the stash for a new third little piggy.

              David,
              Gutted for you after all the work you were putting in to this. I was going to say silk purse from a sows ear.

                  That's tough, especially after all the work you put in - guess that I'm lucky, the other night my wife wouldn't throw me a bag of crisps as I was sitting near the dio I'm doing as she said "Knowing how many hours you've spent on it, don't want to knock anything off!"

                    Oh dear the wolf in cat clothing has struck the wee piglet. I know how it looks...if only cats can read the no entry sign to my cave.

                    Cheers,
                    Richard

                        Thanks chaps more sympathy than I got indoors, must admit if I'd got on and primed it probably wouldn't have been where it was but hey ho(bravado I'm still gutted) I'm sure I know who the replacement pig is , but as I said if whats in the post is all I hope it is it'll take presidenc over the pig. My hate for chairman mao (the cats name) other wise known as mootkins has passed not forgiven or forgotten but when your man cave is the dining room table I'll cut him some slack. Once again thanks all for joining in on this one fingers crossed with the next. Dave

                            Chairman Mao...how fitting a name. Like here 'Harimau' means tiger in Malay and I have heard a local cat named 'Harimeow'

                            Looking forward to the new pig.

                            Cheers,
                            Richard

                              David,
                              Once your mojo returns you might wish to try Plastic Magic cement - unless you already have - I've had some success with this stuff on recalcitrant plastics!
