No it's a prototype camel back flat :D Stuart |
| PekkaNF:
Guaa...Now you did it. You stepped into the dark side. Lot of wonderful machine tools have been made with fairly standard fabrication methods. What was that italian CNC lathe? Also some propellors are being made that have time variable pitch. Does it fit into any stress relieving oven you happen have nearby? Don't tell me. You are NOT going to spoil that nice ladder by bolting something distantly flat on top of it? Pekka |

Wow Steve, you're going to get a prize from your local SPCA.... How many guys build their dog their VERY OWN lathe? :bow: :bow: Joe |
| vtsteam:
Gosh, nobody believes me. Except Fletcher! :) Fletcher says Pekka needs some stress relief....but he's kind of an opinionated little mutt who insists on doing things his own way. At this point I can only follow his instructions, Pekka. He's a combination of a herder, and an animal designed to attack badgers underground -- so you can imagine, he's very single minded when he's made any particular decision! :beer: |

Maybe a granite straight edge or a handy monumental mason gravestone off cut might get glued and bolted to the ladder to give it some stability! Regards, Matthew. |
