What Chris said, cool on its own. Dipping in oil would temper it and you wouldcuss when drillingJack TextorSent from my iPadOn May 11, 2012, at 3:17 AM, "bubbleboy" wrote:> > Thanks Jack...will give it a try!

You could make your own, Scotty! Those plastic knobs just screw off and on.Get a chunk of brass, 1"x1", drill it, tap it (now you have a way to hold itin the vise), then start filing. It'll keep you out of the pub for at least2 nights...St. GaryNX308MB-----Original Message-----

Very nice video, Mike.I have been looking at different camera options to mount on the Piet and want something more than a Go Pro. The Epic Red looked like just the thing I wanted.Here is a nice video of it's capabilities: http://vimeo.com/25424362 I recommend watching it full screen,1080 resolution and crank the volume. Very nice. Then I checked out the list prices of these cameras, $40,000 - $70,000 depending on options. I don't think I'm getting an Epic Red....Greg C. ----- Original Message -----
