The attitude of all involved, the old hands, the new faces (of which I...

8) 8) I am thoroughly enjoying (rapt) following this process, spelled and stepped out for the uninitiated ( dumbf%#ks) like myself. Very interested to see the outcome, I have an ever increasing respect, as mentioned previously in BillL's post, for the craftsmen in the industry, but even more so for ...

kneeboard dvd

I would definitely be interested in robs' new dvd - I'll keep an eye out for it on the KSA site.
Hey Steen, I know I'm still a stranger but I'd also be interested to see any footage of the Simpson boys, clearly a step above from the footage I've seen on Simons' DVD.

Cheers Wolruss

I'd be interested, for sure. What about you Gav?, Waka? - if your still in the state. Reckon I could scrape up a couple of old feral kboarders from out west of coffs that might be interested as well. Give us a date to work with and I'll let you know some numbers.
