  2. I have "skrawked" louvrey type things in plasticard with sawblades before. Typically the back end of razor saws (often the only bit that's still sharp) using a square and taking my time. Emma

  9. Thanks for that Richard, Poppy's descriptions of size are a little odd. My cat is called Spook and seems to run the local Mafia.... he used to beat up anything in this side of the village including foxes at night. He is getting rather ancient now and tends to take it easy Emma

  11. Yer... but you try finding a rule made of Invar! Emma
  12. I would start with 1K resistance EACH LED , possibly increasing that if they are too bright. Basically you subtract Vf from the supply voltage then divide by the current to give the resistance .....simples! Emma
  13. Oh dear - it's gone all quantum! (which I thought was physics) Emma
  14. I think that is a cutting shed. Those bays would be stone in or out. There are some piccies here... Power for machinery was generally in a power house or belt line engine house.. If I'm correct, there should be means to run slate (on railborne trucks/trollies) up to or away from those 'chutes' .....it's been a loooong time sdince I studied this industry! Emma
  15. Ah.... but then paypal , bank transfer or.........?
  16. Just as a point of interest, how do they (Poppy's) take payment? Emma
  17. The only foil covered material I have seen is Kingspan/Cellotex which is polyurathane.......... AFIAK polystyrene (both EPS and XPS) come 'nekkid' Emma
  18. You're gluing animals to each other ?!!!! Emma
