Wow. Talk about works of art.

"All decisions are the result of binary thinking."

John, It's one thing to make a mere model of an engine the size of a
half dollar, but to make one run, especially a 4 cycle with valves ,
carb, and some type of spark apparatus. ?I'd like to know why they
make a spark plug about the size of a ball point pin tip!

The five cylinder radial engine is simply amazing.

No kidding!

I've been around some people that are highly skilled and love doing
unimaginary machinging for a hobby, (but non like this!), and I've
found them to either be really laid back and talkative, or very quiet
and straightforward. But either way it seems they are a bit eccentric.
And thats not really bad either. *Maybe they're truely infected with
"binary thinking?"- Hide quoted text -

Same here. My uncle was an aviation machinist, and very bright on top
of that. He always had something going on! He once built a fold-out
tent camper that was just cool as hell! He even sewed all of the
canvas on an industrial sewing machine that he got for a few bucks
because he had to fix IT! This camper worked like a charm, he used
conduit for the arms, and it would set up in just a few minutes. Had
windows in it that zipped down, and he got the zippers from somewhere
that made them, they were seconds and he had a big box of them. Looked
a little funky because they were all different colors, but he was
frugile, too!
