I happened across a craft tutorial by mangetout on youtube just a couple days ago and I watched it and learned he has a wonderful buttery accent. I don’t think Tom Hanks can do accents. ---

> [@Robot\_Arm](#): > > **Mangetout** , do you want a picture of the glove or not? Sorry - Yes please - I’ll PM you an address to send it to. I’m currently working out how to revamp the lost gloves gallery for my site - it’s been a couple of years since I posted any pictures in that section, but I will eventually use your photo. ---

Thank you. I’m thinking of starting work on another boat soon - something along the lines of a pirogue canoe. I’m also thinking about stripping down a two-stroke brushcutter I have in the corner of the garage and converting it into an outboard motor for the Snow Pea (I would really like a steam-powered outboard, but that might have to come later). ---

A steam powered launch would be great. Dress up as Nayland Smith and someone else as Dr. Petrie if you do it. You would so fit in with the Fu Manchu universe. Ok it’s a bit enthusiastic, but you would work in that part. ---
