When I subscribe to a magazine I've paid my dues for what ever I'm sent. When I'm sent plans for a device or "what- ever" I make a decision to attempt building "what-ever" the plans show or decide not to make it. What I do with the "what-ever" after it's built is at my disposal which includes selling or trading it. I've not the slightest twing of wrong doing after selling or trading it. I believe the person who prepared the plans for the magazine, most likely, was paid for his efforts. If the magazine didn't pay the provider of the plans and the provider wanted to be paid for his efforts from the builder of the plans it should be clearly noted in the magazine. If there are pattens restriction the plans must display such.

Edwin,

When a cow pook was asked "How close can you get to a rattle snake without getting bit?" He answered " Don't know how close but know I'll stay as far away from it as I can get!" Same goes for hitting two hardened metals, or hammers together! Make it a hard and fast rule---don't.

Edwin,
When purchasing a cordless power tool I suggest choosing a manufacture who has a complete line. They usually come with several batteries and a charger. When one battery goes bad there are several more to choose from. Of course, eventually all batteries will become exhausted. This being the case keep an eye opened for battery sale specials. I check out the Power Tool Lines repair facility where there are often good deals on batteries.
Responding to 'fonda's comment "-could they be modified some way so that one could use them as corded drills". Currently I've not seem such a modification however, it's an idea that desevers some consideration. It would seem a battery case could be used to house a transformer etc.

Ed,

Most English authors I've read get around to the point much like Americans. Can't wait to read this book. Please enter my name.
