  1. . Sydney had the biggest tram network in the world until NRMA lobbied the government to rip it all up..."

    Sydney is going Back, Along with Parramatta, to Tram's .

    BUT 

    They will name them trains, " light rail ".

    Sheeet by any other name !.

    We havenot seen any " wires " yet !.

     

    SO, maybe t's the " Magical Tram Train " without those Ugly overhead wires, Like the American's " third rail trains ".

  2. BUT ,!

    A Spitfire Will never be the same, without that huge RR motor in front ! 

    Who will buy a Silent Harley.

    I love the sound, also the Radial motor H A R S, aircraft, when having a flying dispay.

    Don,t like 'Big Bore motor ' noise,! Use quality ear protection.

  3. I Like, 

    The idea of buying a ' not to be registered caravan '  Then turning it into a ' toy hauler '.

    New designated use, should be new registration caturgory  ?.

    Saw one New but stolen caravan, covered in ' fingerprint dust, ' never to be re-registered because of insurance payout, going for a couple of $ thousands.

    Would have suited me .to the ground.

  4. Another  OXYMORON

    Government reguations to clean diesel engines !.

    You need power, so accelerate, Then the exhaust Gas reticulate.  System puts more exhaust gas Into the engine lowering power, so to compensate,  More acceration required, gives more EGR, causing lower power output, untill your ' flatout '

    Pumping lots of smoke, just to compensate for Bureaucracy.

    EGR ' BLANKING PLATES ' available from OEM . Tells us something is wrong if they provide  the FIX !.

  5. Found it !.

    Have a look at 'vynal print shops '  their backing paper on the vynal IS printed with a " graph Grid ".

    Thats the bit they Throw away. 

    I have a narrow roll of black vynal to go on the kitchen scirt board & a large width " red velvet "  vynal for ' speaker enclosures '.

    All have grid lines on them.

  6. News paper print  !,

    Wallpaper using backside but not preglued.

    I used a roll of 'carton card/paper ' for draughting my prop pitch formers.

    Lots of smaller and larger carton manufactors use some of what would be useful,

    Like ' Kelloggs corn flakes ' Botany Sydney. 

    Now who makes cartons in Far Away N Queensland.

  7. Is a Lead-Acid battery, Energy dense, l think one short circuit wil be a '  Flash in the pan '

    How dense is it to stick solar on Residential roofs, with batteries for night work ?

    Cheap Cheap says the government. We don't have to replace those expensive power stations.

    ONE JOLT from a Battery enhanced power grid, and your toast !.
