derrilex The wife works for Thiess and they put it on yearly leading up to the Ekka. When I say yearly, this is the second year of the comp. It's open to 3 or uni's as well so interesting to see how this mug does against the engineering students with their fancy pants computer simulators 😃 Final weigh in at the post office on Monday. Might be able to stick a few more bits in there. 😉 Total weight has to be no more than 300 grams and the bridge must clear span 350 mm minimum. The supplied load hook weighs just short of 70 grams which is a big chunk of the total weight.
Brett_H For those who aren't on Farcebook here is a pic of my latest creation... Western Queensland Fossilised wood on a Damascus Steel carving knife. The blank I bought because I'm not quite ready to cut my own knives but having said that I'm very... Very close. Forging my own steel however holds no interest to me!

Very relaxing Hmmmmm, sorry to drag up an older post, but I was just wondering Jonty, when you said this was taken from your car.... ..... By chance was your car on it's roof when you took this and you have a very dry sense of humour? It appears I must invert the photo ( on my iPad anyways) ... to see it right way up?

derrilex Ok, the Spaghetti bridge contest was held today. I would have been happy with 20 kg but we absolutely demolished the competition with 54 .1 kg and a load ratio of 240 ( bridge weighed 225 grams). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2hZ1g3R_u4E&feature=youtu.be
GaryatGala My roasting lab/garage. Spot the roaster. I'll give you a hint, it's not the red vacuum cleaner :angel: A big shout to Lemoo for the Behmor demo. Thanks mate. :thumb: From left to right, Behmor, FZRR700 baby roaster, KKTO and lastly the coretto.
