lol, well I have been v.v. unwell for last few days so havent had chance to do much on it. The hold up has been that I need to make the lift duct v.v. perfect. its got to be exactly 77mm radius. It is made of 0.4mm plyboard and has a propeller spinning inside it at 21,000rpm so it needs to be exact :P. To get it this exact im havin to use tools at work, as I only work 2days a week now im back at uni, and I can only work on it while d&t teacher is also free it taking a while.
 
Have made the former etc, coated it in polish so the glue wouldnt stick to it when i fastened the lift duct round it. Unfortunately I only polished the edge, and not the top or bottom, and an overenthusiastic technology teacher managed to rip it in half :/ Having another go on monday.
 
am at work all dat 2day (aka 2morrow) so will hopefully get it cut and have some photos :)
 
lol, have been busy :P, have now made lift duct, left it ar work by muistake tho :/ will hopefully bring it home n make some pictures of it in 4th jan.

Also got skirt for it now as well :)
