Sorry, but these are artesian made one of kind for the select few....

But if you want it that bad, I have done some rough calculations and I am sure for again, low low payment of 8,000 Euros, Cmdr. Kharma may indulge a select few (all other requirements will have to be met, so read the fine print).

Well when the fuck ups start they just do not stop.....

Firstly after doing all that I forgot I had not worked out the actual placement of the switches around the nav module in the centre according to the position on the stripboard.......

Grab a stripboard quick and position switches....Whew by luck they line up.....

Secondly the hole for the LED holder was stated as being 5mm.....Nope it's 6.....

That and my cock up in measurements meant the fixing for the toggles went slightly over the hole for the holder....

Had a think.....

Filed down the tag......

► Show Spoiler


And shoved a washer under the holder nut.....

► Show Spoiler


Sorted.......

Then offered the switches up and put a couple of button caps on.....Hmmmm they do not work.....Must be slightly out......

Enlarge holes to 8mm......Try again.....Nope.....

Then it dawned on me....The mother of all fuck ups...

The plate is too thick for the switches to work... :cry:

Huge fat hairy Bollocks......

Gonna go listen to Volbeat and grab some escape pods whilst I have a think.....

What a dickhead.....

hmm, sandpaper, a stronger chisel, a file!
A drill press with a steel drilling bit in it, just nibble off halfway instead of all the way. Sink in as you would do in sinking in screws in wood

All this For a low low payment of 29.99 Euros! *

You can pre order now by PM'ing me your Name, Address, Credit Card number and we will advise you when it ships!

Remember, you MUST be a member of the A-Team in good standing (That means Xebeth and Tor have to start showing up and paying their dues again) and you must PM your completed details. These 2 things are non Negotiable.

When your order is placed, you will be notified by snail mail as to when your order will ship.

Join the A-Team Here! :P

Any other location will be charged at 4 euros per meter from Kharmas house as determined by Dawgs Mapping Measurements. * Payments of 29.99Euros will be applied every day until your order ships.

No Refunds, No Warranty. Ever. Your statement will show charge from Eddie's Booze and Beer Shack.


I'm assuming a Warthog HOTAS is included as complimentary gesture.

As for showing up, I'm only 19k lys away, you could come to me, a bit of effort on your part wouldn't go a miss you know :P

Do Dawg' measurements include toilet breaks?
