Its a convex surface so he is made to look fat.... except in this case it is a fat person made to look very fat! The laws of magnification haven't been so kind on other areas though so if that is you Tom..

And now, ladies and gentlemen, please welcome our new season of "Let's-have-a-go-at-Tom!" If you remember well, the end of the last series was peppered with fierce denials and mutilated postings. Will we see more carnage this time round? Will the Strawberry be reduced to a pulp? Will Isis collect all body parts?? (all but one - check it out in your nearest mythology store) Will our tgruitt give us a BIG GROWL this time????????

ductape, what cant it do? ------------- Jp Indoe Contender 518 Buzz591 Chew Valley Sailing club Bristol |
Posted By: Isis
Date Posted: 18 May 06 at 8:51pm

All the tanks are still intact on said cherub so it should float... the
slight flaw is that I dont have any bungs and 2 of the 4 hatchcovers
are missing so some minor ductaping may be in order here and there...

Mind you, you've in the right class for you. Cherubs are like Meccano: when you're fed up with a model, you take it apart and build another one. I was Meccano-deprived as a child; anyone has a new suggestion for Isis's boat?

Get one of those Helium balloon machines, and fill the bouyancy tanks with Helium, its lighter than normal air so might knock the weight of the boat down slightly.

Whats the point in taking a roll of ductape if you dont use it for the most obvious of jobs... securing your roll of ductape! Top tip is to remove the cardboard tube from the middle for greater weight-saving and storage possibilities..
