Yay! Congrats Sallie! You're gonna love that caddy! The person who chose it as the winner sure was smart!

And now we're onto Cappy's evil plan. He's gonna become rich getting one penny from us at a time off of freebies!

[pchela]

I'm not going to jinx your tank Sallie.

Congratulation Sallie!

 

[MustangSallie]

Thanks Ben. You made me nervous for a bit there!

Is 3/8" thick okay for the panels and caps? Anybody know?

Most scales aren't thicker than that. I would hope that's enough.

damn... I missed my chance to get another caddy.

And a bad news for me. I knocked off my Choco from my desk and it fell onto wooden floor, and the bottom endcap lost the glue power. *sigh*



Good news is everything is intact and still working just fine, and I don't see any damage on any parts of the woods. Also the bottom endcap is not loose from the body either. I think the electronics are holding the cap from falling off.

When I squeeze the top and bottom endcaps it clicks and stays tight until I open/close the door which makes the cap getting loose from the body, then I have to hold top and bottom again and push it back in to tighten.

I think I just need to somehow apply glue inside the thin opening when it's in loose form as in the pictures. but I have no experience on wood glueing not to mention not knowing what glue to buy.

cappy...

Oh no Chet! I'm sorry! But I bet it's an easy fix. That's a positive!

Glad it wasn't worse.

Me too, because I just bought them! Oh well, if not I'll just have to have them made into pistol grips. Be a nice present for hubby.

What didya get?

 

[MustangSallie]

I think there's enough here to make 3 or 4 Destroyers.

 

[MustangSallie]

I need to stop looking now, there are only 20 more or so I'd like to buy.

Nice!!!!!! He might be able to get one from each scale, but that would be cutting it real close.

 

[pchela]

Looks like there is a lady in the middle, hands above her head, either singing or screaming!

No - it's a woman with wings stretched above her head. I've decided she's singing.

I avoid eBay like the plague now. I don't have enough self control.

I just want one out of this. One will make me happy. This means no engraving though, so I'll have to buy another destroyer so I can get the engraving I had in mind.
