... haven't you seen pictures of how we are waiting for the bus?

Hahahaha! Ok, you're even worse than Norwegians! Amazing! :D

You know how to spot Norwegians abroad? You have a more than fair chance if there are some sitting as far away as possible from everyone else in restaurants, cinema, bus or whatnot. There are fewer with the classic goretex jacket and rucksack uniform these days, but also a fairly sure bet if you see one :)
I live on the westcoast fairly close to Norway so I have seen it. But I'm Swedish so so I'm sitting conformable at the same distance

Well... you're going to have to take her out. Get Bill to do it with the shovel... then use the shovel to dispose of the evidence... then send it to me - I need it to shift the midden.

But I don't want to invite her out? Bill will be so upset!

As for disposing of stuff it is not my area of expertise, but maybe the 13 ton excavator outside could do the job? I'll borrow it to Bill. Anyway, Bill is busy right now.

Today I thought I'd shamelessly exploit Medical Bills experience visiting and observing multi-tool users. I've cleared my desk, and I've provided some sketching tools and a few classic books for Bills reference. We've also had some basic 3D CAD training so he can hit the ground running. (If the CAD commercials are anything to go by Medical Bill should be productive just like that! ::) )

So I've tasked Medical Bill with coming up with the perfect multitool compromise. I'll give him the day for that - should be interesting. If he is good he will get porridge with extra salty salt later!

Just a little bit off topic, but how do you get the pencils and caliper to stand up so perfectly straight?  :o

They have no choice - they are stuck in an exact sized vertical hole. They can't even turn. :) (That ensures that the pencil softness is always visible from the front).

It is terrible useless at long travels.

That said I'm sure there are wheeled excavators close too you as well. I can highly recommend them. They are true multi-tools and even have exchangeable tooling: I've used mine for digging, leveling, landscaping, snow removal, lifting, compacting, bending, crushing, demolition, moving of pallets and whatnot, and as a work platform. Wheeled excavators with their high point of gravity can even do wonders against constipation.

Highly recommended! The world need more hobby road builders :cheers:

Inga is missing?  :dunno:

Bill has been eagerly working on the multi-tool design all day though. He hasn't been out the office at all. He seemed quite in the zone when I popped in earlier. If Inga is missing I think the main suspects would be the raven, stout or otter. They could easily crush her little igloo I suppose.

I'll take a look around and see if can find her. She hasn't fallen for my discrete trap yet anyway.

After a bit of searching I found Inga with some stored tools. She was surprised but happy to see me. She had meant to go to the kitchen, but instead done a wrong right then a wrong left and gotten herself lost. She tried climbing some tool to get a better view of the situation. That is her story anyway. To me it looked like she tried to pry apart the null setting tool which could be crucial for doing milling operations. Not sure what to make out of it, but I took pictures so you can judge yourself.

Anyway, she hasn't been taken by any of the neighbors at least.

I'm guessing their effectiveness as a constipation remedy is directly proportional to the lack of skill and foolhardiness of the operator ?   :D   :rofl:

That certainly helps things along! :D People who are used to tracked excavators have a few other adjustments than just the high gravity point though. The tires are filled with air which means this thing can bounce. That comes in handy when crushing rock for instance - that bucket can come down at much faster speeds than the hydraulics itself can lower it. On the other hand if you drive along the road at 40-50 and hit a bump that gets it bouncing that can be very interesting - there are no springs or dampeners as in cars. And there is less surface contact with wheels so higher local pressure - more chance that something slides or gives in.

On the positive side I save lot of money for roller coasters or skydiving stuff.  :tu: :D
