Dropbox is really useful sometimes, but it can be a pain as well. You can link to a set of photos in the "photos" directory, but not a single photo, that has to be in "public". :twisted: :roll:
As I put it there though it worked for me...

Hopefully there's a picture there now.

If he can sweep up too and make a cuppa you'll have to put him on wages

Great to see
My Dad had so much stuff in his garage getting access to his lathes was impossible. It was one of my biggest disappointments that I couldn't use them as a kid.

It isnt going to be long before we will need a junior section on here, I have been encouraging my lad for a while now, great to see Ethan at the lathe.

give him another 4-5 years and he will be "needing" the dough (via bank of dad of course......)
