    A better test for DaveS than me. He takes more stuff apart than I do. Also his vision will probably correct the blurriness.

    Sam, Did you get my note reference your email address?

    The picture quality is really bad. How do you get a photo to the correct size and still have detail?

    Very close

    Bruce, Yes you are close. Old die cast and new model #6. Rotation is right or left at this stage. How about the third one?

    No, I can't find the note, Jon. You can email me at Mark75H@aol.com

    Sizing pictures is different with each different brand of software. I use some professional high end stuff that is pretty versatile (and expensive).

    Where ya been? Hidin' under a rock somewhere? Just kidding! Its nice to hear from you again.

    Whereabouts

    Just laying low trying to stay alive. This time of year cabin fever sets in pretty hard. Hince the quiz. The third shaft is the product of boredom.

    I am going to send you some photos of the transmission setup. Thought you might like to have them for your collection.

    I can contest to the fact that Dave S can take some stuff apart. I have an L6 spread all over the garage. Rick

    Mark75/Raceman/Bruce - Answer to quiz

    Last year I contacted you guys about a diecast L/U with no luck. Because I had a couple of great props that would only fit the small diecast splines, I took an old diecast prop shaft and turned it into one that would work in the new # 6 housing. The L/U housing is stronger, turns R/H and really works well.

    You tried to contact me with no luck? Sorry................. I don't ever intentionally ignore an E mail, and try to check PM's a couple of times a week, although I don't do it daily.

    What are you referring to as "die cast"? I've never heard that description. Is it different than an old SSM?

    Here's Jon's motor:[IMG]http://www.********************/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=1968&stc=1[/IMG]

    Jon, I folded up your blanket and moved the boat a little farther from the house to make the picture look better. What do you think?

    Picture @ response to Norris

    Sam, That does look better.......................You really do have some high powered software.

    Sorry Norris, the note was through S&F e-mail. Yes, the prop shaft was from one of the first model SMs. When I first got into the game diecast was how the small SMs were called. I still have two or three of the housing but all the skegs are gone. That is not a problem for me but for anyone looking at a restoration it would not work so well.
