ugh the wallet fucking hurts but damn so worth it

Jimi Hendrix set at the 1970 Isle of Wight. Guinness Book record for the largest festival ever with 700,000. Only a few weeks before he died at the age of 27. In full, completely amazing flight here. Funnily enough I've walked across the area that that iconic festival was held, now totally rural with a few cows and sheep. Absolutely no sign at all that it was ever anything other.

I would wait 24 hours to safe, or turn the safety feature off temporarily.

Found the pic. This is looking down the bank towards the site of the festival And this is from the same viewpoint fifty-one years ago

For a sled of that size, it's thick enough.

RIP Rupert Decades of great analog gear (and loads of digital copies). If you're listening to music, it probably passed through some of his gear somewhere along the way. Patron Saint of Carnhill transformers.

The 1970 festival resulted to serious problems with the inhabitants. There are only 120,000 (at the time) living on the Isle of Wight, so 700,000 stoned, drunk and rowdy festival goes were really a bit of a problem. The festival has been revived in recent years, but is much smaller - 50,000 or so, and it is much more tightly organised and managed. Also, locals have now entered into the entrepreneur spirit and put their fridge and freezer outdoor and sell bottled water, beer and ice cream to festival goers.

Good olive oil helps too.

The Socas yokes angle inwards too. I'm not sure how much. The clamp is substantial and a little bit uncomfortable with glasses on, but more comfortable than the stock yokes. They still limit front to back rotation, as the tab that limits it is on the headband and you would have to redesign the headband to remove that. However the tab on the earcups that limits top to bottom rotation fits under the yokes, and the only thing that limits top to bottom rotation is the physical size of the earcup, which is wider than the yokes at its widest point. So you'd have to make much wider yokes to allow for completely free top to bottom rotation. I don't have any issues with fit with these, but there are some occasional issues with excessive clamp.

I use HDPE for that stuff. I’ve always had problems working with delrin. It melts as you cut it.

poor falcon. not use to be outside.

Initial testing this morning went very well. Conditions aren't ideal but were good enough for some fun.

One of my favorite pasta dishes. Pene with broccoli in a light olive oil/chicken bullion sauce. This time I added a little garlic, bacon and parmesan cheese.

Doesn't look the part, but tastes freaking delicious. Pad Thai

Those things are terrible, do not use them for a bias supply. They are noisy beyond belief.
