"THE Government has today confirmed that it will be replacing the Human Rights Act with Warhammer 40,000: The Rules. The 208-page science fiction wargame rulebook is seen as the ideal replacement because it allows every possible type of conflict to be resolved with only a handful of dice" HA!

So that's what RoC is like... I have yet to request access. Not trying to start chaos, just thought of the board game I played as a kid when I saw it.

... There will be a pic ...

Happy Mother's Day!

I black lined my Tau by coating with a gloss coat, then using a thinned oil wash. Capillary Action is so cool! In this image you can still see a few places that still need a light wipe with mineral spirits to finish cleaning the oil wash off of the high plates in the armor. An acrylic wash would have stained the armor plates. With the gloss coat and oil wash, you can come back a week later, and it will still wipe off. When you have it just right you seal the whole thing with a matte finish to bring the shine back down.

Baby weasle riding a woodpecker. Apparently not 'shopped. The woodpecker gets away...

I just though she was rollin in the Deep... BS

This too... am I right???

That has always looked like a fun game. I almost picked it up in the waning days of Bridgetown... man I miss that place.

Not sure what it says about me, but this is one of the scariest tasks I've ever done on the job. It's frighteningly simple, but I'd hate to relay in a post form, and I'm not sure I'd actually follow my own advice at this point. :) There are specific tools and procedures that can be researched and used to do it safely, it is not hard to do, and it's over in less than a second. Also, see rule #1. This is from section 3.5 in the manual linked above, kids, don't try this at home, or at work: I forgot about the imploding part! CRT Safety Rules 1. Do not work on a monitor alone. In case of accident, it could save your life to have someone else nearby. Apple recommends that your staff be trained in Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR). 2. Remove rings, watches, bracelets, hanging necklaces, and other jewelry before performing repairs on a monitor. Metal jewelry is an excellent conductor of electricity. Removing jewelry will reduce the possibility of electric shock . 3. Never use a grounding wriststrap or heelstrap or work on a grounded workbench mat when discharging a monitor or when performing live adjustments. Grounding wriststraps, heelstraps, and mats are used to protect sensitive components from the damaging effects of electrostatic discharge from your own body or clothing. Even though they contain a one-megohm resistor and are designed to conduct only small electrical charges, we recommend that they be used only when working on "dead" (uncharged) equipment. 4. Wear safety goggles when working with a CRT. The CRT contains a high vacuum. If cracked or broken, it can implode (collapse into itself, then explode). To protect your eyes from serious injury, always wear safety goggles when working on or near a CRT, and be careful of other people in the area. 5. Before working inside a monitor, turn off the power and disconnect the AC power cord. Certain parts of a monitor chassis are hot (electrified) when the monitor is under power. Except when you must have the power on (for example, when making live adjustments}, never work on a plugged-in monitor--even if you have the power turned off . 6 . Keep one hand in your pocket or behind your back when working on a live monitor. This practice reduces the risk of current passing through your heart, should you accidentally contact high voltage . Lisa 2 Video Take-Apart rev. Jun 87 page 3.3 7. Always discharge the anode before touching anything inside the monitor. The anode of the CRT maintains a charge of about 15,000 volts DC {even when the power is off). Before touching any internal components you must discharge this voltage. The anode can regain some charge, even after it has been discharged. If the service procedure takes more than 30 minutes, the anode should be discharged again. 8. Never touch the anode connector or the anode aperture. Normally the anode aperture has a connector plugged into it (Figure 1, #2). When a CRT is replaced, the anode connector is removed, exposing the anode. The anode can maintain a charge of several thousand volts (even after the power is of f ) . 9. Do not pick up or handle a CRT by its neck. To prevent an implosion, take every precaution against breaking the tube. Be especially careful with the neck, the area where the tube is the thinnest.
