All I can say is..........This

Have you seen the new book, Apollo Remastered Andy Saunders spent 10 years examining, scanning and enhancing the pictures taken on the mission. He has managed to squeeze an amazing amount of extra detail from the original negatives.

I think that could be due to where it hits the AC cycle when you turn it on, could be 0V or peak or anywhere in-between, so instantaneous current will vary.

I buy mine from either Alexanders or F.H. Brundle. Metalcraft also do steel in handy packs, a bit more expensive, but a good selection in more convenient sizes

Welcome to the forum Giorgio. I'm from Scotland, so I hope you don't mind me replying. :D

The Chinese already have a manufacturing plant on the dark side of the moon. They are currently doing all the Christmas stuff for Amazon

Pythagoras or try looking on-line. You can find calculators for most things

I stayed up all night to watch it. I'm sure I saw a puff of dust come off the moon when they landed. I even bought the commemorative coin. Are you telling me I wasted my money!!!:D:D

Lol. easiest way is just listen to it. That's what I have to do when that happens

lol, do you not listen to Pink Floyd?

There is no dark side of the moon really. Matter of fact it's all dark I'll have to go and listen to it now...

Its a stepping stone to go to Mars and beyond. To boldly go where no man/woman (other genders are available) has gone before. They will also be able to explore other areas of the moon. Possibly commercialise what they find. Watch out for the price of cheese to plummet!! Did you see how fast...

If you think you might want to expand what you make, have a look at Metalcraft they make cold bending jigs. They have a huge range of products. British made and extremely well made!! They make a range of scrolling kits for cold forming. I have the XL workshop package it's very very good. I make...

It would stretch quite a bit, which was handy for really uneven walls. I tore very easily once on the wall. It was easy to strip, but came off on really small pieces. Very 70's patterns.

buying an old house, having to do a LOT of work on it over the years Living through 15+% mortgage in the early 80's and 9+% inflation of the early 90's. I decided that if I could buy a tool and it would be cheaper to do the job myself, then that's the way I would go. We did woodwork, metalwork...

I just checked a set of blades I have ground quite a bit to remove nicks on the edge, there was 3g difference between the blades. I also checked a new set of Wadkin blades. There was 1g difference. I don't think 3g will make much difference, considering the force of impact as the blade...

What type?

I think you need very good even light, for working, but have an articulated 'spot' light to move around to create shadows. It would be handy to be able to vary the brightness of each source to change the balance. varying the colour might give some interesting shadows, but not sure if it would...

That looks beautiful. Very encouraging. I got some good paint stripper for mine. When I have time, I will start work on it.

I tried making one with wooden blocks, but I don't have a suitable saw. The 3D print, was just a try and see how it would fit, but I found three spacers held the blades firmly. I used to spend ages hand holding with a diamond stone, until my fingers and wrists ached.
