two left feet Posted June 17, 2005 Posted June 17, 2005 Hey Mike, I take it you cat trap wasn't connected to the wall socket somehow...sort of like a potential cat toaster if your not careful.... Reminds of the stories about the old ladies who put their pussies in the microwave to dry. Talk about a nasty way to void your warranty. (cat lovers please dont take offense and flame me) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cal50 Posted June 17, 2005 Posted June 17, 2005 You needed to build a catapult or a trebuchet for the final touch. It would have thrown the cat out of your room or out of the house depending on size. Cat's really do land on their feet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
r1derbike Posted June 19, 2005 Posted June 19, 2005 Erector set! My experiments came to a screeching halt, when I built an erector set windmill, with very sharp blades, powered by a powerful electric motor. I was experimenting with Newton's action/reaction theories, by chopping off my sister's doll's appendages. Great fun! Shortly after, I got my finger caught in the motor's worm gear drive while it was running, and I never saw the erector set again...(sigh).

e_lion_1 Posted June 19, 2005 Posted June 19, 2005 Never heard of togls before in my life. Lego on the other hand - so many hours of enjoyment (and one erector set in there for variety) Lincoln Logs? (maybe only found in America?) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickyJ Posted June 29, 2005 Posted June 29, 2005 I haven't seen Mecano around in a long time either, though it's not as old as other stuff. I was part of a small team back in grade 6 that got 2nd place in a cross-Canada automotive design competition using only Mecano. Our prize was thousands of dollars worth of Mecano, and pics of our car with Mario Andretti. :nod: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
