I think I'll also try the bi-plane next Craig.

After buying David Grist's DVD Vol 9, it's given me a whole new outlook on balloons. After I make the bi-plane, I'm going to try and design something big myself for the first time. That'll be fun, I'll probably come up with some really weird looking contraption. :)

Whoa! So cool, Graeme! And with the cost of petrol as it is, how economical. ;)

. . . on second thoughts and closer inspection - no. The engine looks MASSIVE!

Are you having to hold yourself up off the ground in that unbalanced position, or does the thing actually hold your weight?

Hi Cath,

It's built around a small stool, my leg is actually hiding it in the photo. My photographer got the angles just right to show it well and hide the stool at the same time.

I'm sat quite comfortable on it. :)

Hi Billy,
            Great attempt at weaving and a first class job. I love the idea of the rabbit sitting in car, i use the same Axtell model in my childrens magic shows.

             I have the David Grist DVD volume 9, it is a great buy. You have now inspired me to dig it out and have a practice at the bigger models. Love the bike also...well done, are you going to be using it at your magic shows? :D ...doing all your own stunts?.

             It is nice to see you on this forum, i had a lot of help starting off in the magic business by your friend Emazdad...i owe him a lot.

             Great plane cash..well done, maybe you could fly up north and visit..  :D

Hey Craig, love the plane. Looking forward to when I get enough time to try it myself.

Hi Monty, I noticed you have the same rabbit. I watched your video, you'll suprised at how much alike we are. :) I also noticed your rabbit hasn't got any whiskers, did you take them off yourself or did you ask Steve to not add them? My first one had whiskers and I hated them, kept making me sneeze so took them off, and then asked for my next two rabbits to not have any. On my third now, will be ordering my fourth soon as this one is starting to look a little worn. :(

Hi Billy,
           Am i not slightly slimmer than you :D , listen if i manage to be half the entertainer you are, then i will be happy. The work you do for charity has humbled me and hopefully i can help towards it in the not to distant future.

           I got the idea to take the whiskers off from.....ehhhhhh, you !!. It was suggested from you in a post a while back on the Magic Cafe. I am still on my first rabbit...not as busy as you :( , or maybe kinder to my Bunnies...lol.

           Do you keep the rabbits once you have finished with them?, or do you have a nice rug in the living room?. :D .

            It has been nice to speak to you and hope to hear from you soon.

                            John. :)
