Hey Dan I am in the same boat on my spelling, it is really bad.

So I down loaded the google toolbar. It is free and the spell checker works good.

Nice plate.

And congrats on being smart enough to not ask the wife to go on the trip. Not all of us would know when to keep the mouth shut :thumbsup: :lol: :D :?

What do you mean "That's a long way off"?

Didn't you build the companion, "Time Machine", before you started this, as instructed in the Galaxy Space Manual? :R

Area 51 is just north of us here in Vegas. Through the years I've known a number of folks who have worked at and around 51. I'll say one thing, they are a tight lipped bunch. 8)

Hello again.

Joanne, i think mini was having a little wind-up about the secret hanger
which doesnt exist at all.
No, no, no, no, no. never has & never will do etc.....(offical responce)
must admit, still experiencing problems with the time machine,
but the alchemy is going great!
:lol:
Del, got the licence plate off ebay US.
the seller had a few of various regions.
just typed "roswell" in, selected vehicle parts & started trawling.

anyway, got 2 hours on it today. have work later.
finished tacking the door sill on.
then completed the roof panel.
Image

got to use the jenny again, one of my favourite bits of kit.
Image

& created my own club.
Here is the un-official emblem
Image

tell me what you think.

Love the logo! Now you will need an official handshake (just in case you experience 100% membership growth).

Please describe, exactly, what the "jenny" is doing?
God Bless

Hi Cliff, :)
these particular wheels on the jenny rolls a swage along the
edge of the sheet.
its similar to the stiffening hoops on a 45 gal oil drum, just smaller.

the secret handshake could be a comedy clockwork buzzer.
had one as a kid.
or could modify a tazer. no, bad idea.
:lol:

Love the new logo


The "ALUMINUM MASONS?"

Any secrete meetings going on, can I be initiated?
Are you going to have secrete codes and the all seeing eye? :lol:

Hello Everyone.
unfortunately, not been on the build as much as planned lately. :(
on late turns for the rest of this week so hope to get some
mornings on it.
have ordered the window seals, which require 3mm to slot on to.
this means doubling the skin thickness around the window edge.
not too much of a chore but another one to attend to.

will post more piccies soon.

best rgds dan. :thumbsup:
