Let's see your workshop.
After a 12 hour ordeal I got the workshop/office to the point where Janice will allow me to leave the door open!
The rack on the centre has some of the HP's I have but the very bottom row is still project shelf. Things get placed there for a rainy day. And it has been rainy, we have now broken a record set in 1956 for continuous rainfall in Vancouver. Can you spot the TOS Star Trek stuff? |

RE: Let's see your workshop.
A TOS communicator can come in handy for your day job, in an emergency. I hope the tricorder is a real one and not one of those cheap alpha centauri knock offs. The dilithium cristals in those catch fire.

There's the communicator/TV remote. Looking for an E6B, does that count?

The cheap Alpha Centuri ones were from "lost in space"' I don't think they had dilithium crystals in the series. Then again I don't think they ever got there did they ? Geoff Are those transistor radios I spotted in the shelf near the "sillyscope" ? Ray |

RE: Let's see your workshop.
Yes, you found them, 50's and 60's reverse painted transistor radios all restored (new caps) some in original boxes:
Before and after: The cabinet: The big one: And to the far right more HPs after all, need them for the book. |

***THE*** book?!? Gadzooks, Geoff, I can't afford to make it to Nashville this year. But if that may be where it appears - perhaps I can start walking now???
What, me interested? |

RE: Let's see your workshop.
Ha, no pressure there.
If you look closely, just above the 9825a is a working copy of eth book. The last three chapters are a killer (writers block)and this damn forum keeps expanding the various chapters and the appendix! :-) |

You must know by now how eager many of us are to purchase a copy when it appears. Quote:Stand by for surprises. Now that sounds interesting. Cheers, Brad |

Brad,
I was being facetious! Purposely missing the point :-) |

Hello!

My wife's birthday is not far away and she is a trekkie (goes to conventions in costume and such things...). Didn't even know those bluetooth communicators existed - what a present. As far as my "workshop" is concerned it is presently not presentable. No way I will show pictures on the internet. Two 3-D printers and two quadcopters awaiting completion next to all the calculators and stuff - what a mess. I really must buy my wife that communicator or she will change the locks of the house ;-) Regards, Max |
