Nice one Chris. So essentially your workbench consists of a blanket, a laptop and a film guide .

 

That pencil thing looks handy. Much smaller than a laptop and fits right in your pocket. You might want to take out a patent though, before Apple steal the idea.

iPencil I can laugh, but I wish I had their salary!

 

Nice image Chris - Thanks for starting my day with a smile and a chuckle on a rather (rare) drizzly day in Barcelona.

 

I bet that's a screensaver on the PC and you are logged in to that well known model railway forum beneath it

The “I pencil” sounds good to me, the “I scribe” sounds even better, E mailing the “Intellectual property office”right now.

You mean you're still allowed to use the table after that scratch? What batteries does a pencil take?

Legend has it that NASA spent thousands developing a ball point pen that would work in space whilst the Russians justed used a pencil. Not sure if thats true or not but its a nice story...

 

If your workbench is that tidy, even at the start of a session, then I can only assume tha your one of those 'armchair modellers' sir!

Oddly enough I'm wiring up Fourgig East this weekend - in the full glare of the great unwashed at the Mansfield Show

Wonderfully mobile chris... as Pete said, thanks for bring a smile to these parts of Sussex. Halfwit - the pen's a "papermate".... as for the pencil, I've heard that but wonder if it's just an urban legend - wouldn't want all those broken bits of graphite flaoting around... or did they use chinagraph?

Discuss.

According to Qi they could just use an ordinary ball point pen in space.

 

Q. Did you write that and what did you use?

A. Aye, Pencil...

Nice to see you are managing to give us so much information about your work, always informative. But DID the mug contain something more exciting?

Keep the info coming!

The mug was empty at the time, I'd had enough ale down the local earlier (which would explain this bazaar post I guess)! I'm a dining chair modeller - proof! Dining chair modellers do have to build something though, because there's no way I'd be allowed to take over the dining room if there was no real reason
