Never mind I will put my pound in the RNLI box in our local shop.
Cheers Colin.

Hi Jb,
I am tempted to get out my microscope and have a little tinker at something.
The only problem will be how do i take photos of the finished model.LOL!!

RE - I have had a little tinker and this is about my limit LOL!

SERIOUSLY MARTIN! I need 2 pairs of glasses just to see what it is😁, I know how you do it, you've got a 500:1 scale rule haven't you???😉 I suppose you'll be making one out of thin air next time that we can't even see😂
JB

That is a good idea Colin, but i must of put it in the bin as i cannot find it as i have just cleaned my bench off.

Martin555.

Put it up for auction, proceeds to the charity of your choice.
I will open the bidding with £1.00
Cheers Colin.

" I can't afford an electron microscope."
Me neither Colin🤔
But I ordered one like Ed's, which should be delivered next weekend.
I'll look at the pictures again then!🤓
😎

Hi Peter,
It is a static model, but i am going to have to but her up for sale as i have no room to display her LOL!!!!!

Martin555.

Is it RC Martin.
How many motors did you fit.
Peter.

Martin that defies the eyes.
Must get a microscope just to see your tinker models.
Please don't go any smaller, I can't afford an electron microscope.
Still gobsmacked.
Cheers Colin.

Hi Graham
I painted it white.
And you are right one of the crew members has fallen overboard LOL!!

Martin555.

Martin,

Fantastic! Is that for the ‘egg cup’ challenge?

What colours are you going to paint it 😉? And I can’t quite make out if it has one or two crew ?😂🤣

Hi Ed,
I have had a little tinker and this is about my limit LOL!!

Martin555.

Hi Ed,
I may have to experiment to see what i can do LOL!!

Martin555.

Hi Martin,

I must admit!
I thought it wasn't possible!
But, you proved me wrong!

But, a grain of sand.
Now that would be extremely impressive!

although, I'm still trying to figure out how you do it!

Cheers, Ed

PS.

I don't think it's a shrink ray?
Or is it?

I don't shrink myself Red, otherwise i will not have anyone to hold the tweezers LOL!

Martin555.

Beginning to think you either have an expanding ruler Martin or you have some sort of magical shrinking device - if it's that ---- do you shrink yourself or the boat ?

Tyr-maran.
Now theres an idea Colin.

Martin555.

Ref "Where is the bottle"
Now that is a good question, being so small and see through you have a hell of a job to see it LOL!!!

Martin555.

Hi Ed,

A grain of sand !

I had enough trouble with the grain of rice LOL!!
I am sure it is possible but not by me. or is it ? LOL!!!

Martin555.

Well done shipmate, could you have used the rice grains as outriggers, like a trimaran.
Cheers Colin.

Absolutely amazing Martin. Where is the bottle.😁

Hi Martin,

I give!
Next will have to be grain of sand!

Cheers, Ed

Hi Marky,
I used Sake' LOL!!!

It is good glue because after a couple of glasses it sticks me to my seat LOL!!!

Martin555.

Rice paper sails Martin😀? Does it fluff up when put in water. Tongue 👅 in cheek what type of glue did you use .
Cheers Marky👍

Hi Ed,
Sorry it is not a tug but will this do ?

Complete with two grain's of Rice.

Martin555.

Tinker away Mon ami.
Cheers Colin.

Hi Ed,

I am not sure if i could the 1/2 Springer was a bit of a challenge.
I might have a Tinker.

"you might as well just go straight to the next level, a grain of sand! 😋"
Why stop there Joe?
I'm beginning to believe that Martin is quite capable of building a sub-nano Quantum model!
If only there wasn't the damn Heisenberg Uncertainly Principle🤔
We'd never know for sure where it was or how to observe it ☹️
😎

"I challenge you to make a Grain of Rice Build!"
Is 'long grain' rice allowed Ed? 😁
Not so much a 'build' as a 'carve up'😂
😎

I remember in the early 90s running across a guy in the flea market in Ipanema (really great Sunday market😊) who could write your name on a grain of rice and then put it in a tiny bottle on a necklace!
Doug was relatively easy, but Jessica, for my daughter, took a few attempts.
But he managed it eventually!😮
😎

I remember in my dim and distant youth, something running in the Daily Mirror where people were carving figures from the last quarter inch of a match.

Nerys

😂😂😂😂😂😂

Do you want him to build it in a bottle as well?

Ed,
I like the grain of rice idea, but with Martin's talents you might as well just go straight to the next level, a grain of sand! 😋
Joe 👍

Hey that's not fair. But a great idea.
Cheers Colin.
