My mind is a glow, with whirling transient nodes of thought, careening through a cosmic vapour of invention.....
Well I've been drawing out ideas on paper all evening anyway :thumbup:
Basically I'm telling you that I will have a couple of project logs to possibly start soon..... no fantastic promises but I'll do my best over the winter months to get some interesting stuff made ;D
Hey there's always a chance no one will want to read or even appreciate my works... but then some of you just might find some of it interesting..... assuming the major machining mod' works I'll be a happy puppy ;)
It is only a theory at the mo... it might not work at all!!.... But then you'll all see many hour of completely wasted time!!! :scratch:
Will see what I can make soon enough! ;D

Very cool! Keep us up to date. As far as drawing on paper, have you considered using a 3D cad program? There is one that I use that has a free version. The free version is pretty powerful considering that it is free. On the plus side, I also use it so the collaboration efforts will be worth it.

Ralph.

Well you'll have to wait a little Bernd.... treat it a little like Xmas ;D ('cept you don't get the gifts!! :-\ )
I'm willing to try it Eric, your PM has been answered :)
Have any of you made a torch yet? .... I made two last week, took me about 3 hrs including full BLINGING ;D (this message is aimed at those with my poor plans!)
(Wes, if your reading this, you never did send me those new plans you pm'd me about ??? )
I'll throw a pic up there with the rest after sunday.... Just in case the recipient guests here once in a while?

Cool. Wes has been detained a little by life. We hope everything is going ok for him. I will try my hand at redoing the plans again if he doesn't make an appearance soon.
lemme ask... does the the title of your thread have anything to do with your ideas. In this case the word 'glow'??
I haven't had much time in the shop to try making one. Every last moment down there has been an income generating adventure so I haven't had much time to play.

Yer I know about Wes.... Just thought he might wander around now and again ??? Got to be a severe shock?
Do you not know the origin of the title? .... you should be ashamed.... clue .... Think Mel Brooks!
It is just one of my favorite film quotes ;D
You'll have to wait like everyong else Eric :P ....As I said it may all be a total waste of time.... But it will be a fun one all the same ;D

No Ralph, your wrong about the gift. It'll be "eye candy" knowing your talent. ;D
