Our cat is called Larsson, we don't know why, he was called that when we got him. He's grey with white paws and chest, his mother was a Norwegian forest cat, so he has lynx-like ears. My modelling table and Ragnhilds loom are places he checked out very early, and lost interest, he's never done any damage at all. I have to admit to carrying him around, he seems to like it, and the funny thing is he starts purring when I show him my models. Also to get this back OT I have all along the bottom bookshelves a row of old cloth-covered binders, in these I keep my collection of photos, plans, photocopies and magazine cuttings, this grows and grow, so now there is a couple of yards of binders, all sorted by country and then by manufacturer, some manufactures have a binder to themselves, McDonnell-Douglas, Boeing, Hawker and DeHavilland for instance, the french alas only have two wide binders and a thin one, this is not because of any of my own preferences, just because there is so little references around for french aircraft. I recommend spending some time on this, together with my other reference "database" (the pen&paper version), it means that if I have anything at least I can usually find it. Anyway after all this meandering I get back to the cat, we have a running battle about where he is allowed to sharpen his claws, he wins, one of the places he has chosen, and in fact one that I applaud is my reference collection binders, binders are cheaper than furniture. And which binders does he choose to sharpen his claws on? , the Sopwith binder and France volume 3, the one with Spads in, a true connaisseur! /Neil Al wrote: > Mark: Glad to see there's another cat lover out there.

(most soldering irons are, even those for electronics) That would make difficult to handle it carefully.... however the idea has its appeal. Another idea: making a mold for the Spad chin area, with louers removed. Add the triangular sprue sections as HW told, then do the part with milliput pressed over it. Later, send that to Barry at Rosemont for mass resin casting. Earn millions. Live happily ever after.

Could it be that rather than the flame going out, maybe the electronic switch never caught the gas burner to the supply? I know there are times when it seems to take a bit more clicking of the electronic switch on my range top. We have pipes in our bathroom that are noisy and our house is only 4 years old. I also have a dishwasher that has an oak panel front. ALWAYS use cheap builders wood for these panels, cuz if you use oak (which builders never use) it is WAY too heavy. It eventually bends your dishwasher door down to the floor! Believe me, that's where ours is!! I need a plumber!

A Listee, I think from Scotland e-mailed me asking if I wanted to trade it. Unfortunatley, I've lost all trace of the person and the e-mail. If you still want the kit contact me on or off list at aa8.@tinyworld.co.uk Regards Andy Jones ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 30 Apr 2001 17:43:25 +0200 From: Crawford Neil To: "'wwi@wwi-models.org'" Subject: RE: Welcome Phil (was: WWI model list) Message-ID: Welcome from Sweden Phil, you're on the right list and in the right scale!
