I had to access The Wreck via Google Groups today, because my news server is down. Somehow it posted under my old name Sandman. (my addy didn't change) I have tried to fix the nickname issue and it sure as heck wasn't meant to confuse anybody. Sorry if this caused any inconvenience to anybody and I highly doubt it did.

(This was in reply to an e-mail I received on this topic, and frankly it sounded a bit like the Spanish Inquisition.) SOMEBODY SAY SPANISH INQUISITION???????
NOBODY EXPECTS THE SPANISH INQUISITION!!!
is what I think you meant to say. I knew it was you instantly. It's only been, what, two weeks since you changed?

You are correct. My mistake.
What I meant to say was;
NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition! Our chief weapon is surprise...surprise and fear...fear and surprise.... Our two weapons are fear and surprise...and ruthless efficiency.... Our *three* weapons are fear, surprise, and ruthless efficiency...and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope.... Our *four*...no... *Amongst* our weapons.... Amongst our weaponry...are such elements as fear, surprise.
I love obscure references and people who get them. Nobody had to mention a snake once.

Anyone got any advice on opening coconuts with a bandsaw ? I saw a Victorian "Faberge egg" made from one recently, and I want to recreate it. Equally advice on good surface fiishing techniques for cocnut.
Obviously I'll need a nice smooth finish on it, so as not to loose too much airspeed.

I want plans on how to build a trebuchet..a trebuchet big enough to hurl.....say... a cow?
Only if you bring me a shrubbery!
