  1. We are working on one down here at the moment. A word of advice: DO NOT BUY FROM ANYTHING FROM Eddie Knappenberger He is the T*E of the 3po world. My mate is still awaiting £250 worth of parts after 3 years, as are many others.
  2. "Matt" and "proffesional" in the same paragraph! Never thought I would see the day. If it had included "honest" I would have started looking for aviating porcine.
  3. Like Batfink's fricking wings mate.
  4. You would not be able to print the tickets fast enough. Could we poke them with sharpened sticks through the mesh?
  5. Can't imagine who else could have been calling him out on his wall.
  6. Glad to help mate. Fingers crossed for your kit.
  7. Looks like the 50% was just a rumour. Found this with a bit of digging: "The Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) urban operations bargaining unit is moving to vote on a strike mandate. Negotiations between Canada Post and the CUPW remain at a standstill after the union asked for conciliation in January. The two parties have been negotiating for five months. Canada Post is presenting the union with a deal that lowers wages for future temporary employees and eliminates the current sick leave plan, replacing it with a short-term disability plan. CUPW does not favour the short-term disability plan and wants new hires to move through wage increments just as current employees do. “We feel that Canada Post has been successful all these years because of its employees,†says Denis Lemelin, CUPW's National President. “We want to continue that quality service by continuing to hire the best employees.†Lemelin also says that Canada Post has spent a lot of time restructuring the organization and notes a recent $2-billion investment could have been better distributed. He says the majority of the money was used to upgrade mail distribution technology, rather than allocating some of it to employee advancement. “We are all for the productivity gains,†he says, “but this money needs to be used to develop financing and banking services so that everyone can benefit from new technology.†If the urban operations bargaining unit votes yes to a strike mandate, postal workers across Canada could be on the picket line by the end of April."
  8. Wonder which one wore white at the service?
  9. Not noticed any issues either.
  10. Whoa! Now theres a first post.
  11. Thought it might be. Shame it sounds like he made the T&C's for replication prohibitive.
  12. Is this the guy who got booted from TAG?
  13. Good times. Congratulations guys.
  14. Looks good on you mate. Congrats on making EIB. Welcome to the ranks.
  15. Notched for sure on ANH, atleast thats what I was advised by TM Paul.
  16. I'd go with a set of Keith's every time.
  17. OK. Enough is enough. I was going to bite my toungue but judging by the tone of other peoples posts they are begining to feel the same way: budspencer1971 , a couple of pieces of advice from a seasoned trooper. 1, The search function can be you friend. Its there, please use it. 2, Please stop trying to reinvent the wheel. 3, What might be new info for you is verly likely old info for a lot of folks here. If you think you have found something new, use point 1! 4, Do your research before posting, or as our old scout leader used to say " engage brain before opening mouth". Enthusiasm is a good thing, but when you do not bother to follow the points above it just comes over as a tad annoying. Please remember , some of us have been at this a while . And even those that have not have tended to do their research first. Respectfully, Matt
  18. I gave my new kit a wax and polish when I built it last year and the only cleaning its had since is a swipe of the duster to remove the dust from the lid. And thats all its gonna get.
