I think the only solution is to have everyone on the FOG receive a McLaren where the driver sits in the middle, and the passengers behind. It can also pull a 5,000lb trailer with tools, material, and great for those quick runs when you run out of something. Problem solved!  I once broke my right ankle and had an old Ford with a bench seat. The only solution I could come up with to get to work was to sit in the middle and drive with my left foot. I got a lot of weird looks... Tom |

You have to admit though, those Morgans are sweet. I think they still make the frames out of ash! Wonder if they have the new Domino to speed up production . I have a 1969 Rover TC2000 siting in storage in DC and storage lease is running out if anyone is interested. It is left hand drive BTW! but it does say petrol on one of the switches for the reserve tank!  |

He will - but he'll also have a really strange justification for buying a specific model ... (ie; not the one that tips over when you park it at 45 degrees). |

I recognize the "calling cards, British style." I never had an English auto, but did have a couple of Triumph Bikes (a tiger 110 and a TR6) I had to carry a small tool kit with every where i rode. they were smooth running and fast, but there seemed to be never ending sources for oil leaks. and every nut and bolt head needed a special sized tool. There were those screw on valve covers that had to be tightened nearly every time i stopped for "petrol". make them too tight and one could crack the casting. Eventually, I got tired of constant repairing and tightening nearly every day (constant checking is a necessity, but fixing!!!?) and traded the TR6 in on a German single cylinder, 2 cycle Zundapp that i could go off road and thru woods with. That bike was light enough, if i could not ride thru or over something, i could just carry it. that bike was a lot more fun until I ran into a situation where i had to unload it. I had met this fine young frauline. We ended up getting married, you see. I had to make a choice. Either the bike or domestic tranquility. Ah, me, i suppose if i had it to do over again, i might ....... Ah!.......I better not go there.....    Nah, I guess i did alright on that score.  Tinker |

Is that a small coffee table or did you manage to buy a Domino XL that's ten times bigger than mine ? I'm going through heightened Festool Fever too - The August promo for Festool & Protool gear here just leaked There's a big timber show on in Sydney This Friday through Sunday too, could be dangerous. |

It's the new XXXL domino I took the picture with my new wide angle lens the lens is actually resting on the domino plate it's right up against it. Dead close which gives a distorted depth of field. I like it looks cool! Jmb |

Do they do mortgages for tools now? Just looked through the whole thread and wondered if you do any work to afford them, looks to me like you sit on the iMac clicking " add to basket" and "pay now" all day
If anything is going spare let me know I'm sure you've duplicated on some stuff as you must forget what you have and haven't bought.
