What I'm looking into doing is a home brew (DIY) Quadcopter. Ever since I saw the first aerial videos from one by a member of Thaivisa have been wanting one.

They are awesome and as I do like playing with RC stuff I reckon one of them is on the to do list as well.

The one in my avatar is my first thai one but I have made several over the years that are unique in the world. If you know what the flowers look like you realize how hard it is as you have to open them up and remove the pollen then add the new pollen and hopefully not bugger the flower sao that it remains on the tree and doesnt abort, a few weeks late if its right you see a seed pod starting to develop. Then its another couple of years till you have the flowers, might mot be as physical as some things but with my restrictions I love it.

Heres a link to the pics of how to do it, the flower isnt on the tree as it was too hard for me to take the pics that way but this explains/shows what I do. http://thefrangipaniman.com/subpage1.html and here are some of my flowers:

Sadly Seajae I have hands like slabs of mutton and fingers like an elephant's knob so that looks way too delicate for me....

I like to tinker with bikes and RC toys.

My latest bike project, finished now and am on the hunt for another, looking for either a Honda CB 750 Super Sports or a 1100 Virago.

My current RC toy, still stock at the moment but am picking up a big bore kit and supercharger for it next time I go back home.

Must confess the CB 750, think circa1969, is one of my favourite bikes and would love to have one. thumbsup.gif

yeah we have already been through this best offers thing LennyW and at last count you alluded to its sale price at more than Eddie's immaculate restored K1 which is advertised at Bt.395,000.

Why don't you just name a price ?

The wife has just read this and is now on at me to get a hobby I can do at home, besides drinking, perving at dollies or fishing... but I've not got a mechanical bone in my body....

How bout a new bbq?

Now that has lots of possibilities.

You don't need a shed. Just time, and a plan.

I think a Thai Visa Forum bbq build comp should be started.

2 months to complete and the best bbq wins the crown.clap2.gif

Has anyone ever built a Rocket Stove while here?

Not such a need here, but at least not illegal like back home.

Not "need", but enjoy the kink, picked it up from my days working with sex workers helping the disabled in rehab hospitals - they call me the puppeteer.

Plus possible business, huge potential market back home, kink market + obesity factor + aging population.

Bit of OT trivia - did you know the number one population at risk right now for HIV and other STDs in the west? Nursing homes and other long-term care facilities, combination of the discovery of Viagra etc, with the facdt they're pre-safe-sex mentality, and/or onset of dementia. . .

And one day yes I will need it myself won't I?

I started a new shed project yesterday. A new work bench.

Go buy some more wood today for the top, shelf and back splash and she will be ready for some stain.
