Thats a good idea! See honey, my projects are not out of control...look at this guy. I am a firm believer in using others as examples to help lower the bar.

I think what we are seeing here is what happens once all the kids have grownup and the husband gets kicked out to the garage. Retirement bliss...I love the bored dogs crashed on the lawn. This guy will have everything in the hose running off belt drive and will survive the apocalypse.

Very nice work.  Following your visions will always have a great payback.

I was surprised to see it didn't chop tomatoes whilst the compressor was resting.  Perhaps the Mk ICI-a.

Thanks for the compliments. Unfortunately, this is the result of being middle aged and single. Every woman so far has taken one look at the mess and I'm pretty sure I've heard a sonic boom from the velocity they head the other way at least a few times. Maybe instead of a tomato chopper I need a net launcher... ::)

On the bright side its probably cheaper in the long run and better than TV anyhow. On a serious note, most of this has occurred as a way to spend time with my father, he had a cancer scare a few years back but seems to be past it now. We both get some fun out of it all.

If you're new there's a thread or two on here detailing some of the work on the Twin 'Roid and contraptions. Probably a few pages back in the forum by now.

Hi 2Ton46, sorry you haven`t found the woman of you dreams but I respect your decision to spend as much time as you can with your Father, while he is still with us and I am glad to hear that his cancer scare has passed.

My Father passed 30 years ago and there isn`t a day goes by that I don`t miss him, make the most of it while you can, and keep posting photos of you wonderful inventions.
