Greetings Gareth,
to start it will be a recording of the utterances made during construction! And yes, the initial programming of movement usually strips the gearing on several servos, so its always good to have a reserve in store.
Anyway, we though if we could find a smallish person from the York area and the gondola being at 1/6 we might just marry the two up. After all, you are doing some flying stuff at present, so a bit of oaring and singing will complete your CV and impress Elizabeth too.
Have made the maestro frames, and six others so far. Following the "rules" of the build, all the frames should be made first, then start fitting onto the slipway. They are made slightly skewed about the floor cross beam, which means they have to be glued up from three pieces each. Still, it's honing my fret saw skills and the italian is coming along nicely, S for sinistra (left, port to us) and D for destra (right, starboard for us). They don't use port or starboard, just D and S.
Aye, Kim
