Tricks that old racers get up to after retirement

Attachment 426370

Jackie - By the time you read this it will be Christmas Eve day. Santa is testing his sleigh to be sure that he is running the right prop and has the correct fuel load to get through the journey. Both you and Jill have had a lot thrown at you this year and and you managed to get through it all. That in itself may be the biggest Christmas gift of all. I want you wish you and yours a Very Merry Christmas.

And a Merry Christmas to all of you that make Scream & Fly such a wonderful place to spend time..:thumbsup:

BobbyV —— how the hell do you do that———— A BLOODY F1 CHRISMAS RACE BOAT of the present day era ( don’t doubt you could tell us WHO owns it —-WHO drives it——- and what their aunties pet parrot had for breakfast) .
Had some great news from the hospital——- Jilly has got the all clear——- all systems go—- damn ! , she could outlive me——- Let battle commence once again,
Just trying to outfox the old biddy on a daily basis takes a lot of doing——- she’s a lot smarter than the average, keeps me on my toes dontcha know !
Have permission to bury myself in the workshop today——- that means I can post a piccie or two of the latest concept———- must confess, I do kinda like the number six drives——- and the gearcases are the best I’ve ever produced.
Centre ram is all my own lateral thinking————- might be a tad unlikely——— but it’s not an impossibility.
Hope eventually to paint the rams and drives black——— just for a bit of authenticity——— but—- should someone decide they want it——— then I suggest they send it to John Schubert for detailing.
Still looking for a decent five blade prop that the three Dee printer is capable of producing.

Its finally here—— Christmas Eve——— Screw PC ——-
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL MY FRIENDS ON SCREAM AND FLY.
GOD BLESS YOU.

And a Special Merry Christmas to Greg Terzian. Without Greg there would be no Scream & Fly...:thumbsup:

Hate to tell you this——— I finished the hairy arsed transom Concept——- or rather, Ive finished my side of it.
There will be those amongst us out there who would suggest the better option would be to send it to Schubert for detailing.
That maybe so—— but I don’t have enough time left in my life for “detailing”——- what you see is what you get !
Couldnt resist putting the name Tornado on its bum—— brings to mind a FECKIN big Indian on the sticks—— beating the crap out of the boat !!!!! SOUND FAMILIAR.?
Post a piccie after my forty winks .

There ‘Tis—- could be the rear end of any V bottom of the seventies or eighties——- swirling was in
— twin installations and trim tabs were the up and coming norm at that time !

Jackie sent you a prop for your printer. You can print the gcode I sent or resize the .stl to print the size you require. I hope it keeps you busy and is of use.Attachment 426416

And to you and yours Pilgrim—— nice talking to you throughout the year!

Seebold called me last night from the pawn shop of “CHARLES THE TRUTH”—— but it was bedlam in there——— the shop was crowded with hundreds of folk and I couldn’t hear a word he was saying ?
So, today is Christmas Day and I can again wish you all. A merry Christmas !

My day will be full making and receiving video calls from All over the world as well as Christmas dinner at Lizzies!
Done all the rounds for now——— nice quiet Christmas Day—— then the visiting starts again Boxing Day.
Might get back to you later—— have a wonderful day—- I’m going to !
