I have never seen a bi-conical ice-cream cone but I suppose one could do
it. You would have to eat at least half of it fast to prevent its falling
out. OTOH, two people could eat, one from each end, maybe a new way of
meeting girls.
Those wondering where I saw the above, must not have figured out that
Richard is a fabled "bottom poster" - that works well when you enter a
discussion because you can read everything in sequence, but for those that
aren't familiar with it, it means scrolling dow to the end to read the
message.
The above is interesting, and might have a sweet ending if the boy and girl
wanted the last bite of the bi-conical ice cream cone and got a kiss (or a
nip!) instead.
How this relates to CW is beyond me.
Back to weights:
Joe Pontek, V31JP <v31jp1957 at gmail.com> posted this privately to me and I
want to share it:
Joe says:
I did dig through my notes on weights:
*Vibroplex* -
0.75” (3/4th) diameter, #18 hole (.1695) drill.
5/8” .625” thick and 5/16” .3125” thick
*Mac Elroy -*
0.875” (7/8th) diameter #10 (.1935") drill.
¼” (.750”) thick.
*TAC (Telegraph Apparatus Company) - *
0.875” (7/8th) diameter #10 (.250") drill.
¼” (.750”) thick.
Anyone have any additions to this?
