Why ?

[CageyH]

My speaker cable is currently about 9" long. It won't reach my speakers when the new amp arrives.

[brian2957]

:) What you thinking about Kevin . I've been mucking around with speaker cables for the last few weeks . Last night I put the Cable Talk 3 back in and it's probably staying in my system for the foreseeable future . :)

[CageyH]

Cable Talk 3.1, Van Damme 2.5mm or something similar.
(I might have some of the above tucked away in a box somewhere).

[brian2957]

Good luck with this one. :)

[struth]

I'm gonna make a mk2 of my design in near future as I quite like em.:)

[brian2957]

Spill the beans Grant :)

Spill the beans Grant :)

Remember I made a set of big black snakes, well I'm gonna make some blue ones now with a few adaptions and little longer I think. Not cheap to make but the ones I have in at moment I like the sound of so want to see if I can do better.

[brian2957]

Can't remember what the cable was and how you configured them mate . Just interested . May try some myself :)

[struth]

It was twisted doncaster

[brian2957]

Aha ! I remember now :D

[archiesdad]

Nice pics, what do you fly? Mate has a two seat microlite that he keeps promising to take me up in but we can't seem to work schedules in.

[Firebottle]

I fly a paramotor Martin. Go for the microlight experience it's very exhilarating :)

[struth]

need to be a mega light for me:lol:

[brian2957]

Need to be a 747 for me :D

Crickey Alan- how tall are you?

Lovely pictures.:)

[Firebottle]

Pictures from yesterday, it was a bit cooler so had to have all the gear on, flying suit, two pairs of socks etc.

Our house:

No I jest, I couldn't afford the heating bill let alone anything else. It is the nearest traditional looking Chateau, 'Chateau de la Garde'.

Interesting patterns in the landscape, shot from about 800 feet:

We are within the Brenne National Park, the land of 1000 lakes:

You can't beat this paramotoring lark http://www.paramotorclub.org/forum/images/smilies/wingovers-white.gif

[CageyH]

You don't fancy a jet powered wing then?

[Firebottle]

Couldn't afford that either, plus the endurance is a bit short per flight :)
