Hmm... I never saw an
A-frame bridge before...



Two scientists create a teleportation ray, and they try it out on a cricket. They put the cricket on one of the two teleportation pads in the room, and they turn the ray on.
The cricket jumps across the room onto the other pad.
"It works! It works!"

This was a tough week. It was busy keeping the peace here and still trying to be friends with everyone (both are impossible). I always look forward to Weekend Update, the "palate cleanser" of all the negativity of the week prior.

BTW, I hope everyone is working on their hopper for the Weathering Challenge!

Love, Tom

Got another turn and a half of helix track in. One more half turn and I can wire up the next block and run trains up and down.

Is the Don Adams pic on the iPad because what you are actually constructing here is a Cone of Silence? :D

I was waiting for someone to notice that.  :D

The mains have just about reached Kansas City, would you believe it? Kansas City!

And to @tom mann and the mod team for the shenanigans around here... Sorry about that, Chief.

Impressive!  What kind of prep did you do and what primer did you use?
