Seems like a decent deal.

Guessing its not going to be the best crossbow for the price.

Wonder if it would penetrate a skull?

My 3yr old son has got me back into Scalextric. I few minutes on the bay got us these two lovelies to add to my older collection:

I bought an Acer projector, which I certainly didnt need. In my defence though, I have a massive CRT RCF 'beamer' and an InFocus LCD projector already, but the beamer is a massive PITA to set the convergence up on and then Id be afraid to sit under its 35kg deadweight, and the InFocus doesnt cope very well with widescreen.

More frivolous was a 50 litre compressor. Currently in my spare bedroom, polished and shiny and all Ive used it for was to inflate some new tyres and play with a sheet metal snip. My neighbours are confused by the airline running out of my window...

50 litre compressor eh?

I could probably do without most of the things I own - especially the Jag or the motorbike as I can't really use them for at least 3 years.

Its satin black and it comes up very nicely with a bit of MrSheen! I bought a raft of tools and accessories for it too, after being told that they were ll reduced to half price at a local Lidl. I now have a nail gun, a metal nibbler/shear, an air dryer, a 90 degree (whats the equivalent of Character Map on a Mac?) cut off tool, a tyre inflator and about fifty metres of good quality airline for less than one quarter of what itd have cost in Machine Mart.

All I really need for a fully equipped spare bedroom is a windy gun!

Probably the best place for it on PH. The question is, how much is it?

For me its missing something (other then taste) I think it would look better with some large fruit bat wings stitched to the serpent.

That would detract from the otherwise realistic nature of the piece.

Maybe just one wing then?

No, it has to be two, otherwise it would be flying in circles.

Seatbelt cutter, glass breaker and dog stabber.

(I say dog stabber because I had a dream last night that a dog attacked my kid whilst we were in the park and all I could do was hit the dog over the head with the only object I had. I am hoping that the Iphone 5 is heavier.)

I am contemplating getting this (not to fend of dogs but for halloween) but I can just imagine some dullard parents shouting "What are you doing, you're scaring my poor kid. She's only 5yo for gods sake man!" etc

Does that still exist?

I thought it had gone the way of Pistonfest and the Annual.
