Wheeeeee!

I'm more worried about doing an endo into the prop.
I did that once with a front wheel friction drive. There was a torque reaction stay that came loose and I watched it bounce off the front spokes a couple of times (as I was frantically braking) until it got stuck & locked the wheel. I was much younger and more flexible then so I just bounced a couple of times myself.

I'm in Wisconsin. We got snow last night.
Testing will be delayed.

Is this the right place to introduce my BBLT (Bowling Ball Levitation Tool)?
The still is a crossed-eye anaglyph so you have to look at the left image with your right eye. Bring the two bballs into alignment for the effect.

which is an enjoyable and interesting read. I read it last year when, just for fun, I started planning that science thriller about murder, intrigue, and quantum physics that has been ruminating in my head for a long time.

It's only a proper Godwin if you say: safety regulations, eh? You know who else enacted safety regulations?

Go ahead and write it. The worst that can happen is that an agent will suck the life from your soul as they reject you. LOL No, seriously that sounds like something I would read

Oh yeah, that works nicely. The perspective is just a bit steep. A leeeetle more...

Aaaaa my eyeballs have popped out!

Meh I can take it. If I think it's good, I won't listen to some stupid agent Smile
My wife would be the real arbiter (and wouldn't hesitate to make me do rewrites in case she don't like a scene).

Much as I'd like to show off my recent creations, to do so would break forum rules. Big Grin

My first new car was a soft top Toyota Landcruiser. It was so loud on the freeway that I couldn't hear the radio. I hated that thing. Is your soft top any better noise-wise at speed?
It's really not very bad. I think the flaps that cover the zippers help out a lot. The 6 in speakers mounted into the roll bar over the driver and passenger side make sure you can at least hear the music, top on or off! Plus, I really like being able remove the windows while keeping the top on.

Most of my creations are in the arts -- music, prose, poetry. Here's some old demos of original compositions:

https://soundcloud.com/thumpalumpacus/going-tharn

https://soundcloud.com/thumpalumpacus/lookin-for-five-0

https://soundcloud.com/thumpalumpacus/adelaide

Some poetry:

They’re all so cold,
and distant,
utterly unconcerned,
emotions unreturned.
They sleepwalk their way through the day with
nothing really real to say.
You can try to lay circuitry, but there’s no electricity --
why wire your emotions when there’s no telegraph?
Empty words, empty stare,
between me and them there’s only empty air,
molecules stilled by fears gone a-flutter,
a window made useless by the use of a shutter,
for their eyes might be open,
but their hearts seem closed
and any attempt at reaching inside seems predisposed
to failure.
Why even try?

Every so often, the façade cracks open.
Every so often, the dam is broken.
Every so often, I catch myself hoping that
our smiles are more than just empty tokens.

**************

She came,
wrapping me in her cool embrace,
her breath on my face,
reminding me that beauty
is sometimes barren.
It had been a long year, and so
she’d came,
and helped me forget it,
wearing nothing but promises.
I hadn’t yet wearied of her presence,
and so we gloried in long
damp nights spent together.
She’d murmur into my ear
and drizzle me with her moods
and together we’d sit and watch
the year fall away.

*************

My next project is wood-and-nails: I'll be building a roof over my deck, so's I can barbecue in the rain.

When I get to building it, I'll take and post pictures.
