Someone's selling an 11" galvanised snurble grip-thribley (RH thread) at http://bluemoment.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=421.

Damm - I needed an 11 1/4" anodised snurble grip-thribley (LH thread) ... /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif

Bought one of these last year: v. disappointed. All of my throssit danglers and rissoling rods have proven to be left handed, so the b****y things have been useless.

If it's of any help, I know where you can get jigger and jolly arms.

Gordon Bennett; are you lot still at it? I can ask GC1 to pop over, if that would help.

Sitting on the boat in Cowes yesterday, I was wondering if it's possible to create something like an M.C. Escher Forum Thread Device. This would automatically generate postings which went round and round in a loop whilst appearing to head uphill - thus continuously adding to the post count and saving all you guys the hard work.

Just a thought.

Funny that, I was sitting in Newtown Creek and didn't even give Scuttlebutt or the various web fora ore even e-mails a single thought. Am I starting to deconstruct?

 

[Kilter]

tres catchy, merci!

 

[Kilter]

Can that be used in conjunction with a 14" prangling iron?

You must have got back to Beaulieu before me, because we passed Enigma at her moorings at about 17.00, with some dodgy-looking bloke messing about on board. Would have given you a yell but I was busy explaining to my daughter why she had to do her homework when we got home.

Ah, peace and relaxation.....

PS Yes; you are probably deconstructing. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Got back about fourish. Dodgy looking bloke obviously my partner (boat, that is) Julian, who is decidedly dodgy when it come to sailing!!! He's spending a few days aboard, ostensibly to do some varninshing. Robert kept the bar open for us though, so we could have a cleansing ale once we got ashore. A very pleasant 24 hours - should have made it a long week-end or more.

Can't we simply splice this thread to another long one and get it over and done with?

 

[Stingo]

Just looked in my splicing book and there isn't a suitable knot or splice or glue or.....

 

[StugeronSteve]

As long as this is a right hand thread it should be spliceable with Sgeir's snurble grip thribley.

 

[Stingo]

Bad luck, Webcraft has cross-threaded it.

Must indulge in Fred Drift to pull this back up to the top of page 1 or we may lose the will to carry on in Magna's leave of absence.
