Yea, verily there was a Bowsaur - back to the Ur-Wreck and time
immemorial - there was yet a Bowsaur.

It was in the reach of the Aristotelian portion of Causality known as
"The Efficient Cause".

It was the efficient cause of C-Less being the butt of many jokes.

This is good - and as it should be.

Verily, Brother. Just as a certain plane monger has his Zebrawood
story and another retired cabinetmaker has his infamous Nowrecki
serial character.

Plans, he's got. Motivation, maybe not so much so.

And if it were important to you, it might have been done by now.

I have projects like that. They are, however, not Legends of the wReck.

Rightio. That's why it never got finished.


>I have projects like that. They are, however, not Legends of the wReck.

It has taken many long, hard hours to get it to that status. That's
why I threaten to finish it every 8 or 12 months.

(My 15 minutes of fame. ;)

Tanks, Reeky. ;)

I saw the crossbar the other day while I was straightening up
in the shop. A couple more days of that and I'll be able to
see the floor again!

You entirely mythed the point, Yack. Would you like a pic of the
blades I imported all the way from D.C.? (Washington, Jeff) I'll
see if I can scare 'em up.

leg·end - n. 1.a. An unverified story handed down from earlier times,
especially one popularly believed to be historical.

myth - n. 1. A fictitious story, person, or thing.

I didn't need plans; one pic (after having physically used one)
was all it took. Maybe it is motivation. ;)

All the pieces are here: the wood is cut, the M&Ts are cut, the
handles are made, the bandsaw blade sections are cut and punched,
etc. All I have left to do is drill the handles for the lag bolts,
but the lag heads off, drill for the roll pins, and finish shaping
the wood. Y'know, maybe 1.5-2 hours.
