Melbourne Australia ( Meet ? ) Wow its August 2015

[old4570]

A hex ( allen key ) may not work , but there are drivers that that can still get a grip , as long as you have the right size ...
I just ordered a set ( not here yet ) as they offer a far better grip on allen headed bolts ..
I have over half a dozen 1.5mm drivers , as they are never quite right .. ( 1.5mm for the screws on 450 size helicopters )

Will be leaving shortly , plan is to be in the car 4.45pm

If it happens in spring as per the conversation last night, some of that beer, on ice, with cold rivulets of water trickling down their sides, made with the natural goodness of hops, barley and mountain spring water etc etc, sounds great !! Thirsty now, and all ive got cold is a P...i M.x, ohh well....




bdogps, Fusion_M8, and old4570 discussing the latest and greatest.
VuDuu out of pic and harro behind the camera.

Sorry, no more pics. Once we got into the swing of things, the camera sort of got forgotten. Needless to say, the target at 350M was duly lit, and even the hillside beyond.
Hey Gavin, what was that crazy bright, half a coke can with the 12 emitters, again??

[old4570]

Better start planning the next meet now !
Or the next one might be 2017

 

[bdogps]

It was great to see and try out your fantastic torch collections which I have only seen pictures and videos. Good idea old4570! Probably everyone has to agree on a date, a location that is a great vantage point. I think King Lake National park would be a great place to meet up. http://parkweb.vic.gov.au/explore/parks/kinglake-national-park
